The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I think it's incredible James Camerons materpiece still has this kind of following! My name is Mike. I have been a Strong fan of The Aliens film and alot of it's expanded stories from Dark Horse Comics. Funny Enough I have been a professional Soldier For the last 16 years due alot to that film. For the last 7.5 years I served as a communication, weapons, & intel Sgt. With 10th Special Forces Group. Before I was Infantry in 75th Ranger Reg, & 82nd Abn. These days I spend my offtime tinkering with weapons & tech. Currently I am going to attempt to build a fully functioning "smart gun" based on either a Yugoslav mg42 or a 7.62 Israeli 1919a4 machine gun. Any and all of you smart folks who have build DIY m56 kits & would lend me some insight into this idea"o"mine will officially be my hero:-). Furthermore it's 2011 and I'm still waiting for our &$@: Pulse Rifle's to get issued!!! Cheap Bastards!!!

Welcome aboard Marine!
you may find some of the discussion in this thread about possible parts and sources for a live fire Smartgun of use http://forum.alienslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10512 in particular some of the links and info from AaronHorrocks. :)

Look forward to seeing progress reports and a live fire video on YouTube when you've finished it! :mrgreen: :delta:

Better late than never eh?
Welcome to the forums from a retired soldier! Nice to see another Signalman and Jumper here. Good to have you aboard.
I'd be interested in seeing the progress on your "smart gun" sounds like a very interesting project.
Cheers!
Pedro
