Next to the chamber their is a piece of pipe with an elbow on it sticking up and i am assuming you use this for a handle. How exactly did you attach this to the gun i can't really see from the pics.

Looks like it was a tee* fitting, he just cut half of it away.

*edit: Sorry that's a 90* elbow, not a tee.

all i did was cut out the bend in a 90 and slid the pipe through it. it was originally going to be used to mount my trigger but i got lazy so now its a handle(which works quite well)

Not too shabby. Did you use clear primer or cleaner?

That is wicked... Very nice job.
I would consider a black paint job, but that's just me :lol:

btw, you might wanna consider changing your title, base45's sniper, because Judge will have a fit lol...

but seriously, your using the word "sniper" incorrectly and it just makes you look :scratch: :tongue: .

Anyway, very nice gun.

Very nice job
I think it needs a flat black paint job and a scope before you can call it a sniper though.

Actually it needs to pass sniper school before it can be called a sniper. :roll:
And I believe another requirement for being a sniper is actually being human…
Call me "Judge", it's easier to type.
