  1. looks very MGC/ROTJ based!!

     

     

    It should - it´s a replica-kit, designed to build a ROTJ Rebel DH-17 without chopping a real MGC. It´s really good made.

     

    That´s the initially reason why i bought it ... but it has to much plastic parts for my taste, i prefer my screenseen guns to be made from metal and real parts.

    The receiver-tube is steel, so ist the bolt, too. The cast MGC-grip and the magazine are made of resin. And the rear sight and the magholder are made from plastic. The triggergroup is a combination of mostly plastic, and some metal-parts (trigger, bolts etc.).

    The cap on the rear is from a original canadian sterling - it looks very close to the MGC-cap.

  2. Hi Michael,

     

    welcome!

     

    Nice to see another german screen name. Are you from Germany?

     

    For those who want to know: Lichtbringer means "light bearer" and is the translation of the latin word "lucifer"

     

    But feel free to ask asmany questions as you want. We're all here to help!

     

     

    Hi Karin,

     

    affirmed .... i´m from North Germany.

     

    I played a little bit with my profile-settings - that´s the Avatar i use in nearly every Forum i´m in. It shows the "Lichtbringer/Lucifer"-reference. ;)

     

    Thanks for the welcome. :)

  3. Hi all.

    I just want to chime in and say "hello".

     

    My name is Michael, and i´m no costumer. :o

     

    I like to build a blaster from time to time, maybe the one or the other has seen my stuff on the RPF. So, sooner or later i will for sure have some questions, but "i know how to use a search-button", so you can be assured i´ll try to minimize the amount of dumb questions as good as i can. ;)

  4. Hi there,

     

    i had a stupid little idea, and it´s all TK1961s (user at RPF) fault. :lol

     

    He showed his nice build of a E-11 pistol: My E-11A1 Blaster Pistol - and made me feel a need for having my own one.

     

    So i went in my shop and found some parts, basically a nice DH-17 kit that i purchased a short time ago from Odiwan. Really a excellent kit made by Bowjunkie, but a little bit to much plastic parts for my personal preferences. That kit and some other parts from the partbox brought me to this:

     

    The grip and trigger rearranged some cm to the back, and the mag on the front underside, still without any scope

    Or with a scope? I could offer a M38:

     

    E-11Pistol027.jpg

     

     

    Or a Singlepoint:

     

    E-11Pistol029.jpg

     

     

    Or a real one, don´t remember what:

     

    E-11Pistol030.jpg

     

     

    A pic from the business-end:

     

    E-11Pistol028.jpg

     

     

    And a closeup of the nozzle

     

    E-11Pistol032.jpg

     

     

    Still a lot of details to think about, build it? If yes, what version? Or resell the DH-17 kit to someone who´s searching for such a kit? I like it´s look ..... a little bit like a beloved child from a E-11 and a SE-14. :love

     

    As it is no gun we´ve seen in the movies, it would be a good opportunity for me to use the kit and some of the plastic parts i collected in the past. You will notice over time that i usually prefer metal and/or original parts for my blasters.

     

    Well, i´m open to any of your thoughts and suggestions.
