![]() A5 in green. I wasn't sure if the hopper and pistol grip could handle the curing temperatures when I coated this one (they can) so I left them black. The lip in the front is derived from short-barreled machineguns to keep the operators hand from slipping in front of the muzzle. As it is extraneous on the A5 and somewhat blocky in contour, I reduced it by about half and rounded the edges. ![]() Cutting down the front sight obscures less of the target ![]() Machining the optics rail to accept standard military optics (M1913 Picatinny Style) ![]() HK Drum rear sight installed in place of the original. Unfortunately, the sights are not useable with the TAPCO AR-15 collapsing stock. ![]() ![]() I knurled the flatline barrel sleeve for cosmetics. It isn't thick enough for the raised knurling I'd use on a real silencer. ![]() Another A5 in METACOL III Woodland Camouflage. I was still testing the e-trigger, so opted not to paint it. |
