This was a ton of fun to participate in. Thanks BobaDebt for organizing! The build is all-metal so it's got a really great weight to it.

All of the parts/greeblies were found online or in hardware stores. I might try to do a V2 of this down the road and simplify the build a bit.
I'm calling it the DL24. A shorter, lighter version of the DL44 with some add-ons for stealth/long-range use:
