IMI make all sorts.
I frequented their handgun options back in the old country.

The painted skirts could be an option.

I owned an IMI .357 Desert Eagle for a short time, but handguns weren't my thing, cut out a mag full of the IMI .44 D/E which was madness, and have punched many 9mm rounds out of different model Uzi's but the most insane thing I got to let rip on was a .50 BMG chambered Boyes Antti Tank Rifle.

For the moment this Iron Sword is stalled waiting for bits to complete the barrel smoke unit, and Im out of glue, and, and ,and :/

The bustle rack is ready to fit.
Drilled into the back of the turret & set some 1mm bolts in place.
Going to be a :poop: show getting the corresponding nuts on, but that’s life in this hobby eh !!

It sucks a little, but from one meter it looks fine.....
And I tightened the nuts......

I did it, I did it, this vile clamp!!!!!!
One took longer than the other five!!!!
And also tightening the tension screw was a problem...
Invited Uncle Lazar, set the rings... almost evenly....

Neat trick that is!
Shame it cant paint the white aiming stripe on it for ya :haha:

Mine has gone a bit backwards.
Assembled the turret & began testing.
No MGs, and the recoil which worked perfectly out of the turret has hung up on something & gone pear shaped.
I notice a few of the cables are set up for the V7 plugs when they need to be the 2 pin servo type in order to fit in the same signal station on the 7.1
Now I am just going to open it up & start again.
I hate going backwards........................................ :thumbdown: :-<
