Jeez, not even close to being screen accurate either.

Ha ha!!! A crummy 'replica' - as I thought

where is the mag.clip?

Simon? Never heard of him.

Obviously the guy is an amature- he didn't even bother to put the mag clip in! And look at the painfully obvious smartgun knock-off in the background.

And what's with the semi-mullet? What does he think this is... 1986?

"I know I'm human. And if you were all these things, then you'd just attack me right now, so some of you are still human. This thing doesn't want to show itself, it wants to hide inside an imitation. If it takes us over, then it has no more enemies, nobody left to kill it. And then it's won."

Ohh Kevin, don't you know mullets were 1985

Excellent observations, Alex.
(1) I am probably wrong but always thought that there was only one hero pr that retained the 870 trigger components.
(2) Never noticed the sling mount placement before. Good eye!!
(3) Double check the mag base dimensions. The camera angle may be forcing perspective thus making it look larger than it really is. Dunno, just a guess.
(4) There may be another with a counter window like that one.

Does anyone know if this one found a home? I would be glad to adopt it!!! Jeez Kevin!! All the mags were lost when Frost dropped the bag. Don't you remember?

The reason why I was surprised by the counter window is because most fan made PRs' counter windows (including the SD Studios PRs) is much more red than black when the counter is off. What I've always loved about Derrick Baena's custom PR is that his counter window is a very dark grey, almost black color. IMHO, this is a more appropriate color than red on a firearm.

Ummm... yeah... I guess that was harsh language coming out the muzzles of their PRs during the "That's inside the room" final battle.

Anyway- yes I know who that is- Simon was the armourer on the set of "Aliens"- the pic is a screengrab from the extras disc of the Quadrilogy.

Didn't they salvage clips from the APC after they lost half the platoon?

AK47 afaciendos (which I am not) have a saying, "Friends don't let friends Tapcoize their AKs!" I think the same holds true for Pulse Rifles too. The pulse rifle looks beautiful in its stock configuration as it is!

Tapco is a company that makes all sorts of tactical accessories for AR15s (which I own one of) and AK47s and stuff. Anyway a lot of people bling out their AK47 style rifles to "look" like an accessorized AR15.

Here's my AR15 (or what it used to look like) next to my old SD Studios rifle (which I sold a few years ago).

and here's my accessorized ultra tactical AR15 now

You guys are great!! Thanks so much for keeping this thread going, everyone.

joerg - your airsoft pr looks a lot like mine. Lookin' good!! I can't wait till I get a break next month... have a few projects to finish and a few to begin. One to begin is a battery pack that fits inside Deon O's stock.... just for that purpose.

Nice collection Alien1099 It's a beauty. Do you miss it?

michellejordi - ...just WOW!!

"How lucky are the few who know where they belong."

I'm having trouble deciding if I wanna go with the standard Aliens Pulse Rifle or the all-black, Alien 3 version. Okay, I know the original, screen-used PR shrouds were Humbrol Brown Bess... which I know is discontinued. So, here's my question. What does everyone use instead? O.D. Green? A Brown Bess equivalent?

I use Humbrol Bess Brown, got tons of the stuff

about 50 tins
Alex TK/TB-4166

If your stateside and need BB let me know.
But eventhough its discontinued you can still get it, sort of.

I use a spray paint made by Testors called "light earth". It's pretty much what I use on all of my USCM equipment.
"How lucky are the few who know where they belong."

Roger that. I'm trying to figure out what everyone uses on their PR and I'm going with a basic OD Green, but it looks like I'll have to change up. Looks like I'll have to PM our good friend Matsuo... AGAIN. I get the feeling that I'm bothering him. I can see it, now...

THIS GUY AGAIN?! What is it THIS time?!
