Should probably contribute something while I'm here. This is my VSR, customization includes home made cheekrest made out of leftover material from ghilliemaking, paracord sling attachment points and stippling to grip and forearm.



I also tried out something I've been thinking about for a while, adding a holster to the rifle.




Obviously the M9 is way too big for this and the straps attaching the holster to the rifle removes access to the magazine but with a subcompact pistol like a G26 or a detonics and a better mounting solution it might be worth trying, or has it been done already?

My theory is that it would be rather more practical than drawing from a hip or thigh holster while prone if, say, a target suddenly pops up within your MED and you've been, or risk being, spotted. It would certainly add additional weight to your rifle and make dragging it (while doing the "sniper crawl" for instance) more difficult but if properly ghillied along with the rest of the rifle I don't think it would compromise your camouflage. I'll certainly be trying it out when I get a hold of a subcompact pistol with accompanying CQC holster, at least as a complement to my regular sidearm. I would much rather prefer this solution to other stock mounted holster solutions I've seen which end up pointing the business end of the pistol into your shoulder.

I've seen it again years ago as a move by a kid here in Greece, had a VSR but he had place on the backstock.

I will try to find the photos but I must search 3-4 years ago.

So I forget, but a while back someone was asking about my MANDO/ bounty hunter patch and I see you found yourself one (inthetallgrass). Was that you who inquired about mine?
Yes that was me. I like the kit you rocking, Polarstar all the way. I have the same tri shot (I guess everyone has had it at some stage ) just my stock aint broke.

I get at least one compliment a game from it from some random star wars junkie (which I am myself). And thank you. I very much like my rig. Just got it all set up. Oh, and my stock isn't broken, I made it like that so its my little boom stick.

Ok, but the way you have your shot gun strapped on the back seems awkward to retrieve, do you keep it just for breacing etc? Cause they are extremely light, you don't even notice having them on your back.

...you seeing the phantom menace on feb 10th? ;) I am.

It has 2 clips, 1 wraps around the bottom to prevent swinging and the one on the top runs through my shoulder pad and latches to molle on the front of my vest. All I have to do is reach over my shoulder and unclip the clip at my shoulder blade and pull. Its like a ninja sword.... but in shot gun form.
