Project Leonidas II: opinion/survey?

rockafella · November 30th, 2007, 03:08

Hey guys Just completed my latest gun. I would appriciate any advice, opinions, segestions etc.

Background:

I wanted to build a CQB gun that is both esthetically pleaseing yet practical. The theme i was going for is loosely PMC (ie. Blackwater) with some reffrence to Noveske's Leonidas project gun. The gun itself is a TM with a bunch of internal upgrades, it had a longer barrel and an M203 launcher on it but I bought a Madbull Noveske KX3 and decided to build a gun around it hence the shorther barrel. For a handguard I was considering a CASV or a RAS but decided to go with the RIS just cuz i had one at the ready. I painted the stock, RIS panels and Vert Grip a tan(ish) color and splashed it with some brown just to make it more "Iraq" ready. Overall i'm happy with it but it does seem a bit cliche, so i thought i'd get your guy's opinions. Thanks for your input.

What do you guys think?

x2 a good size torch is all you need

rockafella · November 30th, 2007, 04:35

Any sugestions? Do you think i should get one that is a vertgrip/flashlight combo or just one of the surefire weapon lights that mounts to the rail?

LOL...oh ok sorry I get it now..I'm a bit slow today.

Looks good, but an ACOG, and Troy rear flip battle sight would probably make it look more Noveske.. Possibly a KA MRF..

Just my 0.02..

Correct me if i'm wrong, but I thought the Leonidas was 7.62mm? The gun looks good, don't get me wrong. But it doesn't look like the Leonidas at all...

correct me if I'm wrong too, but I thought Leonidas was a leader of 300 men?

hahaha..
Good looking gun man, maybe could use a laser for quick targeting?

Leonidas is a noveske's 7.62 rifle

ProbeJax · November 30th, 2007, 11:33

Other then that fact that the foregrip looks somwhat shiny because of the paint, it looks freaking fantastic.

immortalundead · November 30th, 2007, 11:45

nice gun, i like the look of the muddy tan color. where do you keep the battery?

Lakonian · November 30th, 2007, 12:21

I believe that is a RAP4. Still hawt, though.

Goodl2ussian · November 30th, 2007, 13:15

He wasnt building an exact project leonidas but yes. Its a 7.62 and has a longer RAS i believe as well as barrel and front flip up sight if you want to be SUPER accurate about it.

Nonetheless, I like it =)

RAS should be free float, the a LuRue tactical one. I tried this, but trying to find a suitable RAS was a pain in the ass, i love this though, very well done.
