yeah now it looks a bit more BTB (and consequently more awesome) :D

if you do polish it up, make sure you add a layer of clear coat, this will add some protection and slow it from dulling down super quick.

you should add a bit of wood to finish it off, then it will be awesome :D

I like the look chinnerz suggested, i'll see what i can do with my limted woodworking tools/skilz. I might do a pvc painted body, but for now i have many other projects to work on, every thing from pistons to loading mechs to diaphragms.

It has been out of service for a few years, but is was kinda fun.

But I expect more power than a pistol can offer.....
So I disassembled it.
