Moving on the the main tube barrel, as most of you have it already , I thought I would post the measurements you need to cut and paint it.
Also the position of the middle ring.
Regarding the rings....
First set of rings went to those that bought them.
We have since altered slightly the front ring and added the holes in the middle ring.
for those who are missing these, please contact me to purchase , or directly post in the junkyard sale thread.
So again if you are missing any of these , please contact ME!
Main tube length that was supplied is sufficient for what we need.
Measuring from the tip of the barrel, regardless of which front cap you have, is 203mm to the edge of the side plates, this does not take into account of what you need to cover the remaining part that goes inside the plates.
This would vary as some are using an airsoft and some are not, in which case the entire tube can be used.
In the case of an airsoft some cutouts of the airsoft contours may be cut for an exact fit.
This measurement is to the tube barrel and NOT to the cap.
Again from the front barrel measuring back is 95mm of painted black tube and to the edge (start) of the middle ring.
Here is my completed tube, front was cleaned and painted with Rust o leum satin black, which is an awesome paint.
Ring was polished and fitted using the 3 screws supplied in zombie pack 2.
The rest of the tube as seen in the real prop is un polished and unclean, so it will be left this way on mine!
One note, the new caps will have to be fitted using a timber over the top and tapping them i place, I grinded a little the inside of the tube as the fitting is super tight!
