I would recommend throwing a dulling coat on the flash hider. The original as no shine to it.

Any matte clear coat should do the trick right?

Bradberry00 thanks again for looking out. Used some clear coat matte I had on hand and it already looks better

[chubsANDdoggers]

some of the details to capture..

 

[chubsANDdoggers]

primed, sanded.. then primed again..

 

[Frogfreak]

this is awesome!

 

[chubsANDdoggers]

before a base coat of silver, one last polish of light sanding..

 

[chubsANDdoggers]

add some matte black as it goes on cleanly then gloss. Once dried weather and assemble..

 

[Frogfreak]

fantastic!

 

[chubsANDdoggers]

the compac scope replica..

 

[chubsANDdoggers]

all these parts need primer/ then sanding. The parts that have details like writing and such don’t need primer. Just wet sanded and then some flat black..

 

[chubsANDdoggers]

thank you Bradberry00
for your help..

 

[chubsANDdoggers]

sande.. primed.. then silver..

You know, I've always figured the gk heatsink was from a motorbike since the Mauser magazine box seem to fit perfectly inside the heatsink without having to cut the heat sink for it to fit over the mauser, as in there's something holding it intact (a aluminium box in the centre). And the only heat sinks that i know that has a trench inside them happens to be designed for bikes. An example is like this I found off google

* Edit* I was a bit tired writing this. I mean that most voltage regulator/rectifiers heatsinks generally have a rectangular trench in them to allow for a regulator to be fitted inside. I'm in no way insinuating this is the exact device but just a general idea of what I'm talking about.
