Ok one of Matts great 870 kits arrived at my door today so I set about getting it installed. Here's how it went...

Dry fitting the parts and working out how they assemble...


Glued together...


And inside it's new home...


I had to dremel a trench along the top for as the bolts from Tom's adapter dont allow the 870 to sit flush with the "roof" of the cage which it needs to do.

Due to my gripfame not being removeable I had to change the way the adapter screws into the thompson . Instead of screwing from underneath it now attaches from above (the holes are hidden by the shrouds).

Heres a few shots to show the racking movement...





More soon

That looks sweet!! I just need to start mine now I'll be on my own over crimbo so thats a perfect time to get on with the project.

I vote that a version of this post be streamlined and copied to the archives in "read only" form... Next time someone asks "How do you build a pulse rifle" I'll send them there.

If thats ok with the mods I have no problem with this thread being archived (would be an honour).

Absolutely brilliant!


Can't express in words how impressive this is...

And how jealous I am.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. Once the ammo counter arrives and ive got it installed (shouldnt take long) then its just a case of adding the last few bolts and then im having some top quality photos taken by a friend of mine (and some of my armour too).

If you want to borrow any other props for the pics (welder, Hicks shotty, Flame Unit, plushie facehugger, etc.) let me know.
