    That might be tricky. I can have a look for OD filament but it's incredibly hard to exactly match shades of green. I can probably get close but personally I think black looks better than a shade that's not quite right

    Like I said, it'll need a bit of reworking to fit the P stock. If you're really interested i can have a look at that next week

    And the rail fits! A little annoying about the blue, I ran out of black part way through, but nothing a coat of krylon can't fix

    Cutting a reciever

    That's not a bad shout. I figured someone would have made something like that by now. Annoyingly I just made an order from socom last week. That would have been a good thing to add to that then. Oh well

    What have you just 3d printed (for airsoft)

    And today I got to put together the rail to go on the front. Unfortunately I ran out of black part way through but I have a can of black krylon somewhere.

    Cutting a reciever

    That's not the problem I'm trying to solve. Basically I'm printing a rail to go on the front of the tac 41. But because of the large hop up dial on top of the barrel a rail that lines up with the existing rail would make it too low and interfere with the hop when you try to take the barrel off...

    Installed it looks and feels exactly the way i hoped

    What have you just 3d printed (for airsoft)

    A nicer cheek piece for the TAC 41 recon stock. The original is weirdly tiny and uncomfortable. I printed it at work so I'll post a picture of it fitted when i get home

    Cutting a reciever

    I should have a spare rail somewhere. I'll have a go at using that as a practice piece. That's probably the safest option

    Cutting a reciever

    The casting is solid so that's luckily not an issue. There is a stainless steel pin that locates the barrel that I would need to press out first. The picture is illustrative of the sort of look I'm going for but not exact. At this point I've worked on the mill enough to be confident cutting a...

    Cutting a reciever

    It's the sensible option, but no one ever accused me of being sensible

    Cutting a reciever

    Thanks. That's a pretty good idea. A little more complex than my original plan to just cut the whole thing down but I'm pretty confident I can mount it square enough to achieve that. I also have access to wire eroders which might be the more accurate option

    Cutting a reciever

    That was my first thought but a riser would be bulky and ugly and probably end up being too tall

    Cutting a reciever

    I'm planning on doing a custom TAC 41 build and I'm considering cutting off the top rail and replacing it with a higher 3d printed one. I have a 3 axis vertical mill at work that I could use but I'm still teaching myself how to use it and don't want to fuck it up when it's £110 for a replacement...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    My lite chassis and recon stock arrived for my Tac 41 today. I am always impressed with silverback's plastic quality, I don't think I've come across any airsoft gun that uses better feeling plastic. I still have the full length barrel that came it came with so I'm going to design and print a...
