Not I. Most everyone I knew who built the kit used the factory parts and lived with the inaccuracy (compared to the film versions).

Anyone ever try to adapt aftermarket stock and barrel vent to a G&P kit. I have a customer who's having a hard time with the mod. I don't own one so I'm not sure how one should proceed. Matt [img]http://hometown.aol.com/mattworsdell/images/matsubanner1001.gif] |

May be you can find out where he's having problems ? I think may be Rogue Russ or Matt Noble will have some ideas about where the incompatibilities lie ..

I've done it. Couldn't live with the weak links and non-working GL. The stock is fairly easy. You can use Russ's website as reference. As for the barrel vent and triangle that is a whole beast in itself. It could be possible with some of my 3d printed parts. [img]http://www.hooverae.com/upload/pics/grenfront.jpg%20[/img] front view-you can see the adapter for the light gate in the middle. [img]http://www.hooverae.com/upload/pics/led-mount1.jpg%20[/img] this is the part you see above [img]http://www.hooverae.com/upload/pics/led-mount-cap.jpg%20[/img] this caps off the rear of the adapter and protects the LEDs. [img]http://www.hooverae.com/upload/pics/barrel-collar.jpg%20[/img] this is the barrel collar adapter to insert into the large aluminum block of the G+P kit. Other parts needed is a strip of aluminum and the gas pipe for the barrel. A lot of work and dremeling, it is possible. (All SD metal parts) I can try to help your customer if they want to contact me.

Well I think his biggest dilema is the light gate. I directed him here so lets see if he shows up. Matt [img]http://hometown.aol.com/mattworsdell/images/matsubanner1001.gif] |
