High there, well here it is my new toy, with my friend with his A5 M249 as we tested both guns last sunday in our inside field in Mirabel QC. It was the first battle test for both guns and they worked just fine. That's one hell of a feeling to play with a 41 inches gun

Absolutly badass. Bravo!

That must have cost a fortune if you built it from a real parts kit. How'd you build them and how much did they cost?

Is it built from a Cushman Paintball kit?

Vacuum molded plastic?

If so, how durable does it seem? Was always curious just how sturdy those kits were.

That more or less is not molded plastic ... if I'm wrong I'm wrong but that looks like a M60 kit that they worked on... kind of like Engle's stuff.

Well for those of you who have seen a Cushman kit in there, well you're half way right. LOL Indeed i starded it out with a Cushman kit but not his kit for paintball but the cheap one that is suppose to be just a replica. Then after that i took all the parts and reenforced them with some fiberglass by the inside. About 1/8 of inche tick.

Then i starded to cut in there and remove as much plastic as i could, so in the end the bipod, the heat shield both the barrel and the gas tube and the front sight were all hand crafted by me with some metal. The barrel in there is a flatline so i also had to put a barrel extention made out of a copper pipe topped at the end with a muzzle break from SpecOps. I consider this monster to be about 95 pourcent done as it is wright now. I still have to buid both attachement for a sling and i'm planning on cutting out the top end of the receiver to replace it by one hand cafted or simply bying one made for an airsoft gun.  I can't exactly put a price on this thing but the kit that i used to start cost me 75 $ then you got to add the A5 pls the flatline plus the E-grip and of course numerous hours of fun tying to put all these pieces together LOL

the back half of the gun looks like it was covered up with black duct tape, maybe its just the fiberglass but still its pretty nice.

Wow... comming from you guy's, it's a real compliment. Because i have to admit that you are a bit responsable for both of these gun's (the M60 and the M249)

Me and my partner have decided to build these guns after we saw you're version of the M249.

We both had made some mods before but these two guns are the biggest mods that we have done so far. Thanks again

Maybe one day the S.E.A.L. Team 1 will play against the Elite Team...That would be one hell of a game....

i love your gun!!!!! to make the firepower more like an m60, get a WAS board and a QEV, and get a larger hopper so you can spray like mad.

it looks great! have you considered getting one of those handles that goes on the top of it, right in the center? One of those would look neat...And yes, you need to get one of those huge hoppers that holds like 500 paintballs!!! that would really be neat, I mean, its not like you have to hide that thing!!! Good job man!

I'm working on that handle, i also think that it would look cool on it. But wright now i'm having some little problems with the piece that is suppose to hold that handle because it was severly hit to make room for the cyclone and clear the hopper LOL. But i have a couple of ideas to make it work. And for those of you who were woried about the performance of that monster, well let me reassure you here.

The M249 already have a Rampage board in it with a QEV and the M60 will have it's own pretty soon. Wright now all i have done for the M60 is an E-Grip of course and the internals have been polish so it's a pretty good start for now. Thanks to all of you for yor appreciation on those two projects, we really appreciate it. It gives me the will to start my next project LOL
