You know… the one Syd ABF confiscated, and said was airsoft?!
I have left the spring as standard for reliability and longevity.
The triangular rear sight needed some attention.
removed the original iron sight, and this was held in place by a single small screw, into 3d print material.
it was never going to hold longterm, under cycling loads.
So, a copious amount of 5 mins araldite to hold it. It also supports it, as it was resting on one point of contact. Its now supported over a larger area, with more surface area covered with resin.
I did have some extrude… so had to wipe it away, clean residue with chemicals / repaint to cover bleaching. Got there in the end.
The front protruding barrel tip needed glueing in.
A bit hard, a small piece with limited access.
I put the tip in, had it protruding. As it went backwards, it got some epoxy as it passed the very last vent window. There was enough to grab and seal onto the muzzle, and it was all pushed inside.
Not much, but hopefully enough to hold it.
It is static and not cycling, so hopefully it’ll last.
If it does fall out, i’l build up with tape, and go for a friction fit next time.
