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 need to stress something...the camera simply does not pick up how loud the shotgun fires. When I played the vid back I was like what the heck. :) It's not earth shattering but it is much louder than what is shown.


And no matter what I did I could not get the BB's to show up on video. Sorry for the low quality video as I used my digital camera.

P.S And no giving me a hard time on the Olive Drab paint job, Bess Brown is coming. :)

Great job


Are you going to sand off the black paint off of the breech bolt/ejection port so it is silver?

actually the tanaka bolt is made of black plastic, so if you sand it, it will remain black.

btw, great job on this GL man, and a nice video too !

Yup the bolt remains black. I have been tempted to give it the same treatment I gave to the M40's as the metal paint I use is very realistic.

I still haven't decided yet.
