I've been doing a lot of work to it lately and here is where it's at.

New inner barrel finally cam so I installed the hop-up conversion, firefly bucking, and Laylax 6.03 625mm barrel. She shoots like a dream now. I gave water transfer painting a try and this is what I cam up with:

Didn't do the scope, but it still matches pretty well.

The other side is a bit gritty looking so I plan on redoing it with my new knowledge, so as to get a more even effect throughout.

Tanaka m24 SWS w/ PCS bolt

Inside:
* Creation Aluminum Chamber (Part #91)

On to the pictures:

New Pictures:

The lighting and graininess don't do it justice at all...
The colors on the rifle it self and other accessories match the forward wrap much better in person. I may try to take some better pics tomorrow.

Let me know what ya think, Thanks!

I love it. Tanaka's are beast. Is it a pre-ban? I wish mine was.

 

[streetkill831]

Yea it's a pre-ban. That's what the PCS bolt means. I love the thing!

 

[mopedman]

I didn't even notice you said PCS bolt.

I want to build a CO2 rig. I just don't trust my self doing it.

 

[streetkill831]

I could be persuaded to do it for you.

 

[woogie]

Not to bad looking dude.

I would look at geting a stock pouch and putting the air rig in there.

And what did you use for that wrap? Is that an ace bandage?

 

[streetkill831]

Thanks! Yea it is an ace bandage. It's probably 30+ years old too from when my grandpa was a ski patrol.

 

[woogie]

That is a really good idea actually. Would be really easy to get some veg in there.

+1 for the great idea

 

[silentfury214]

That thing looks AWESOME.

 

[streetkill831]

Thanks guys.

Yea the wrap works great for putting shrubs and junk in and if you don't have any it works really well by it self because it is a soft surface to look and yet it isn't as cumbersome as most gun wraps.

This coming from a painter/airbrusher and rattle canner - very nice paint job!!!
Envious of your rifle. I'd love to see another company (cough G&G, cough) come out
with adjustable gas sniper rifles again!

definitely a nice paint job. Reminds me of a camo called ASAT

 

[streetkill831]

Thanks!

Unfortunately for you.. and fortunately for me lol, I don't think we will be seeing any more of them.
I have however seen quite a few for sale this year so if you are looking, just troll the different forums and I am sure you'll find one. Won't be cheap.. but it's worth it.

 

[silentfury214]

What scope is that?

 

[streetkill831]

it is a CenterPoint 4-16x40 Illuminated red/green mildot w/ Adjustable Objective from 5 yards to Infinity.

 

[streetkill831]

New Pics!

 

[silentfury214]

how did you make the kill-flash?

 

[streetkill831]

I used some mesh I had. There is a layer of black mesh underneath and then a layer of tan over it that is offset so that it creates better coverage.

like the new photo's. better representation of the ACE bandage wrap. Still a great idea vs. buying a role of pricey camo gun wrap.

If you can, take some photos of the rifle in the woods at a distance of 10-20 feet. Really interested to see just how effect your camo job is. From the looks of it, very effective. Looks great, would be great to see it (or not see it) at work.

lucky guy with a very nice rifle!

 

[streetkill831]

Thanks! I would totally take some more pics, but unfortunately there are now a few inches of snow. Lol gotta love Michigan.

Very interesting to see what people around the world coming up with. I can honestly say this is one of my favorite looking weapons on this forum. The only thing I'd maybe switch out would be to use the gas mags over having a direct line, reasons being of course having that line means it's not as able to move around with you and could be a hinderance in certain situations. Other than that, maybe create some more 550 cord spots on the barrel for vegetation, so you're not relying so much on your good spraypaint job to conceal yourself.

Really nice rifle man.
