See, you don't need to rip the top off your gun with a dremel tool.    If you lay it flat on a router table, you can "mill" a controlled depth slot on both sides.

The buggered up stuff in the rear sight cavity is epoxy from a scrapped mod. I made a M16 cocking handle, but didn't like how flimsy it was. The top cocking handle is half of the M16 version I made.

Those gun parts are for "stuff", I just haven't decided what to do with them yet.

You mean the FAMAS? 

Anyway, nice job.  Very clean, very smooth.

I don't like how big it is either, but it's what I had at that moment. I would rather have just the curved section up there or a large diameter uzi style one.


Below are pictures of the first version that was a M16 style rear cocking set-up. The handle would retract after you cock it and not move while firing. I just didn't like how flimsy it was (the 1/8" steel rod wouldn't have lasted very long).

Evil-98 - I still haven't had time to make any to sell. I also haven't had time to buy a Halo and get a good video of it ripping over 17bps. I'll sell some eventually, but it's almost been a year since I invented it.

I dont think you really need to put that coil thats attached to the rear cocking handle (2nd & 3rd pic) since the rear bolt is goin to be cycling back and forth and all you really need right there between the cocking handle and body of the marker is to put some kind of buffer to prevent the cocking handle in slamming against the rear of the marker.....you know what I mean.

Besides all that....thats an awesome mod idea!

Do not steal....the government hates competition!

Evil-Fingers - The coil is a spring to return the handle after cocking. The cocking handle is not attached to the hammer and it does not cycle when the gun is fired. It's hard to see, but there is a tab brazed to the bolt linkage and another one brazed to the steel rod on the cocking handle.
