I’m liking that grip… and the utilitarian handguard

You sure it’s just the front end on that ACR you messed with for a laugh 
joking…
Love the angled grips. They suit me and look good!
I epoxied a 14mm ccw to 19mm tube adaptor to my ACR metal barrel. Leave that to set while I play with the gearbox and get it fitted.
Was it only the ACR-R available in 7.62?
Kinda wished I had kept my couple of old ones just for something different to hang on the wall with the other different models. 
Available in 7.62 x 39
Cheers, yeah they definitely have a better look than the run of the mill 5.56 that is so commonplace.

I prefer the 7.62 version.
Got the brushless 25k t238 fitted, filed out the gearbox screw holes in the motor area and the wiring holes… and shimmed 12:1 gears…
Now to rewire it to the front… tomorrow 
You need to hog out some of the nylon around the front handguard pin so you don’t pinch the wires. Also found that separating and gluing the wiring to the edges of the receiver helped to stop the wiring getting caught under the t-piece.

I have front wired a few m4s before. Easier in the gearbox, harder in the receiver!
I enjoy making wiring, but won’t lie I am prepared to use plenty of “working words” for this one!
Should be interesting!
Good read👍
Still have my old J10 packed away, was one of the most reliable and distance accurate blasters I built👍

Ah, good to hear from you, matey. 
Yeah, the ACRs slipped under the radar for me… I’m a bit late to the party with them. Can see the appeal though… get them sorted a bit and they’re pretty damn good.
They had a bad accuracy rep but fix the IB and OB and they’re as accurate as anything out there. Funny how issues that were hard to work around back then are a cakewalk now. Guess it proves we’re learning all the time.
I remember your ACR from the old forum, BMD.

Looks like @RokSolid scored himself some credit from iHobby. They have uploaded his ACR rebuild video on the Tube. Nice going

They work very quickly! I am as surprised as you lot!
And in true form, I’ll have a blaster coming to review and video. One I have been eyeing off for a long time.
There will be a review… then it will get the full Gel Ball Nobody treatment on my channel… don’t worry… I am honest, and have only the interest of free sharing information for the community.
Speaking of… wiring is done… tomorrow I’ll get the box together and shoe horn it in, the lower and gearbox will be done.
Then it’s on to fit the front wiring in the upper receiver and metal outer barrel… slowly coming together… but I need to clear my bench for later next week
