not sure if it helps, ruins plans, but here are some different angles Both fit fine btw... Love your work usaeatt2 Without reading the previous links provided in this thread (excited again) i know that the left is a <66ísh model, and the right one a >later model....

Made this pic a bit out of excitement haha. So not the greatest pic quallity, not any measurements...lights sounds ^^ (TFX left side with both sides showing) third is or marv's or roy's (or the other way around) with 4th. But to show TFX quick in all excitement ... Got back from work, relaxing, having a beer ... put FISD on

A aluminium, metal looking E-11 ... I see a dream build comming true

How about the BlasTech industries logo, if one excists ?

I have one of his Scout helmet's ... it's made of fiberglass and i love it.. Service is excelent ... got a replacement front piece of the helmet for free.. Here's a picture i made for him once.. I still want one of his Stormtrooper helmets aswell, good price and overall good quallity. Got some nice weight to it, wich is perfect when handing to someone to look at.. Alway's wanted a EFX fiberglass helmet aswell, but you know the price on those... If you buy one of his, with a pre made foam for inside the helmet from ebay .. you are set.

Any more E-11's around ?

Awesome build so far, can't see any flaws with it so far here's some help about your question. Yellow, green and red are the meassurements of what's visable. (not the actual full size of the parts itself)

Vern, Only the military issued Sterlings were flat black.. ''matt-finish'' All commercial sterlings are Wrinkled. Any other country like chillie or New zealand did what they did. (sten gun finish) That video you posted, i actually have a complete dvd. The video is of DVD #77 wich is about magazines.. I have #1384 (pic's below) ''Sterling Submachine guns'' The one you posted is wrinkle finished.. But just becouse the Quallity of the video is so bad ... it doesn't show.. Here's a close up sample of the video you posted.. #77 Yes, that's a wrinkled finish allright.. Also he uses unpainted Sterlings in my video's for dissasembly purpose etc.. Some pic's you posted are worn wrinkled finish sterlings, Other are indeed wrinkle... There is no bumpty or wavy textured sterling l2a3 mk4 released (ever) Most of the Sterlings pics you find on the internet are worn to there under finish, or even overpainted... That's what you see... Pic's from DvD #1384 Nice wrinkled finish Yup that's how a wrinkled new looking finish looks like. (1977 ANH) pic of han solo's blaster (wrinkled worn) 1966 sterling with worn wrinkled finish here's another example of wich one might think (in your case) ''Bumpty Texture'' Looks kinda bumpty right ? But when you look closer... Here's a picture of a MKIII folding stock finish in NOS condition.. (no, apex wich i also bought off, doesn't cut it) http://imgur.com/a/p7BSk Also i think it's safe to say that this Promo shot is using a Wrinkled finish Sterling: With typical worn signs on the butt stock, and sides of the magazine housing that show the parkerized finish under the wrinkled layer. http://i.imgur.com/MnWZuvR.jpg \ Most parts kits or whatever are so worn down... one might think ^^ I don't know about your source ... but mine is right. I even ''today'' asked a person who has a MK III, ''wich he alway's thought of it being black matt etc..'' to remove his pistol grip... and after all these years he found out today that his MKIII with a very nice serial (if i must say) has a wrinkled finish underneath his untouched removed pistol grip.... ''he was much surprised, i might add'' .. ..( a TK member on this forum) That's a MK3 ... And this is how he looked upon it..''above the surface'' Didn't bring the book in this yet ... if you wish i might addBut this is based on the book, with users picture's provided. Vern, i have no problems with your believing in it, it's your opinion... But this is how i see it...

Lol Vern, It don't even match info in the guns of dagenham book. makes no sence at all.

The live firing Sterlings used in ANH are wrinkle finish... The rest used onscreen is unknown to me...

omg, can someone order me that double mag pouch... Bin looking for ages..

Allright, Some more ....

I've uploaded some picture's a while ago of this aswell.. http://imgur.com/a/MCqWp Feel free to use them..

You are missing the point He said it was brass, and i thought it was rust.. Slotted extractor is MkII era... not mk4 ''but he know's this''

Great, that it's cleared up The color on the Plunger is not neccaserly rust btw, but discoleration from oil/lubricant. As i said, your bolt looks great

As far as i know, sterling plungers are not made from brass I was not talking about rust on the bolt btw, i was refuring to the golden color on the (Plunger)''Thnx for pointing that out couldn't get onto the word'' But now i get the idea behind it, people are mistaken it for brass. ''Brass is not magnetic, just tested the plunger with a magnet, and it picks up'' This Plunger get's allot of friction (as you can tell from the tip)... if it was brass, you would have to swap it every single shot fired. The bolt itself can rust (weather) for sure.... (no doubt about that) Was refuring ''lubrication'' on the Plunger wich has a spring attached to it wich should be lubricated'' Thought it had to resamble (weathering), but looks like it should look like brass, wich it should not.

I see allot of people making some area's golden color, when they are not suppose to be that... Is there a misread somewhere in any ''how to'' thread ? Or is it there to make the most lubricant part look rusted ? * talking about the sear pin (wich has a spring behind it) that never wears brow color wise from friction or anything else, even after decades. Ofcourse it's one's own choise, but it just doesn't seem logic when stiving for accuracy. The rest of the bolt looks ace btw!

It's in perfect condition aswell.. I want stuff like this aswell one day, same with scopes etc... Put a nice dedicated display case tower for it with some nice lights...

YOu have to understand the basic of the E-11 blaster itself first ... how parts move, how they work... in order to make something that is called ''accurate''. How many time's have i seen parts glued the wrong way around... when the info is here sinds the base of the E-11 is used worldwide.... sinds 1955 ? Then again, for a 3D print it looks pritty good considering'the whole printing concept is still fresh.. But calling it ''MOST ACCURATE MODEL OF E-11 BLASTER AVAILABLE ANYWHERE! '' in the listing.... is wrong Looks cool non the less for it's way it's bin made... Just not practical and accurate. The whole trigger group and the pistol grip that is over it is inaccurate... the left part of the silver painted bolt can use improvement with the recoil spring following behind. The folding stock is a good attempt, Like i said, pritty cool from a 3d printing machine.

Look what they did in China for the star wars trailer debute http://edition.cnn.com/2015/10/21/asia/gallery/star-wars-great-wall-china/index.html

I almost cryed Love it!

I used to type everything in my posts, typing letter for letter picture URL's... Edditing my profile signature is a nightmare... i don't even bother anymore.. All in all it's not very user friendly...

That's a very nice looking Doopys build ''AgeOfStrife''. Looks like you didn't miss out on anything ''looks complete'' Good thing you added parts that isn't included in a doopy's kit Novak Dimon, Pméd you about a bayonet unissued. Thank you about my E11

That's really awesome... so it starts with a NO S ? ''in honour of owner James Edmiston's wife, Sisi ?
