Thanks! It was purchased for my freinds Tanaka K98k, which is pictured above (I work on it enough that I could very well own it! Hah. I have a G&G 980 I have yet to photograph.)
I've got it installed, but I found that there is nothing that actually holds the chamber packing and barrel into the unit itself. I'm not sure if I'm missing a part from the kit or what (Couldn't see anything that would retain it aside from friction and the hopup stem... which seems sketchy) So it tends to slip every now and then, Might tap in a set screw or something at some point. Either way, the gun is getting a nice consistency per shot. Just not 100% as I'd like. |
There is supposed to be a small grub screw that holds the barrel to the unit. Did you go the way of reusing the Tanaka hop up or the VSR hop up? I installed the BGS hop unit so I'm not sure if it's a similar procedure.

Nice wooden collections, strelok! Love the Thompson. If that would have a gbb.

Since the receiver says 1947 or something like that on it, made the coloration akin to a postwar M44. (Post war m44) http://7.62x54r.net/MosinID/0005_small.jpg Just need to get the bolt cap from Amos and i'll be happy. Heh. |

My pathetic attempt at photography.
The Kar 98k is a Tanaka which has an orange stain on the stock. After 3 coats of dark walnut stain and 3 coats of linseed oil it still looks orange in the pics. It's more brown. Anyway... http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/f...psd8b1e0f6.jpg Western Arms P38 with custom wood grips. http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/f...ps58f27ed3.jpg http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/f...psa45676df.jpg |
Oh wow, didn't know WA even made a P38! Thats awesome.
How are they? and are they still available? |

PPSH got a bit of a makeover. Spending the next week rubbing linseed oil into the stock to get a nice yellow-orange finish on it. The wood is cheap and blotchy but whatever, its character :). Hoping to have it a couple shades darker. |
Noice! That's gunna look beautiful! I imagine the real one's wood wasn't nessisarily high quality either
|
If I can find a paint stripper strong enough, I plan on redoing the metal with a nice blue too. Hopefully get that true russian 'Beat to shit and back' look.
