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!

Hi all, I’m new to these forums.
I’ve had a snow wolf pulse rifle for a while and it’s time I started to get started modifying it.
I’m planning on adding one of the shell ejecting shotguns underneath, and apart from that and the mag upgrade the only bit I’m a bit worried about seems to be the shroud modifications. I kind of want to do the rear shroud mod, but I don’t really have the skills necessary for that. May use another shroud like HCG down the line. I’ll have to create a thread later asking how it’s done exactly.
Until then I plan on working in the other things. Thank you and looking forward to being apart of this community!

Welcome aboard!

The first thing that one needs to consider when looking at mods for these guns is if its just going to be a wall hanging showpiece (100% movie accurate) that gets some occasional backyard target practice, or if its going to be a skirmishing airsoft rif’ with more of a focus of functionality; a-lot of the showpiece mods aren't as skirmish friendly or will last without damaging parts with repeated use.

A traditional shell ejecting shotgun will add some noticeable weight to the rif’; Ive heard of some guns with shell ejecting shotguns in them approaching a weight of 20 pounds, fully loaded, which is a lot for a skirmish rifle.

There are quite a few builds here that go different routes for different mods, dive on in, and ask whatever questions you need!

Thanks! I plan on going the wallhanger route, but want to sort of implement the functions as it'll be nice for me. Looking forward to getting started!

Thanks! I'll probably start whenever I get a decently long holiday break so I can focus on it.

Certainly take your time, and make sure to store the parts in a secure place.

Welcome to the forum. I too went the wall hanger route! Although i have kept the pulse rifle fully functional with an airsoft shotgun an internal battery it isn't ideal for airsoft but that doesn't bother me in the slightest, i have a Thompson for that or even a standard snow wolf if i wish! They may not be the most accurate pr out there but with some work they can look pretty close. If you want any help with mods let me know.
