[AbrahamLINC0LN]

Can someone with knowledge of CRL reqs check this out and tell me if it looks up to snuff for me to purchase?

The price looks good, but I wanted some input b4 I buy it now.

Its good for 501st memebership. To pass EIB there needs to be modification to the bottom row of t tracks "If using the Hasbro E11 toy blaster and you cover all the rows of holes, the blaster will have 7 T-tracks total. But, if you want to have the correct number of T-tracks (6 total) with the lower row of open vent holes on the magazine housing side, then you shall cover the pre-existing rows of holes with T-tracks, and grind off the lower integrated T-track on the magazine housing side and drill a new row of holes in its place. "

 

Overpriced for a basic Hasbro conversion in my opinion.

it's a hasbro blaster...

since you are well versed on blasters, how about this one from flea-bay

this whole kit is better than a Hasbro conversion

I'd rather just wait for Vern to make me a finished one

I dunno, they seem a little pricey to me for a modded hasbro blaster, of course all the work is done for you......

 

The kit is definitely better value.

 

It's not that hard to build an E-11, if you can put together your armour kit you can build an E-11. I bought a resin kit of the main parts (stock, grip, scope etc) and built a resin and pvc E-11 as my first project when I joined up. I hadn't done any model building like that previously either. I also have a hasbro with the doopy's kit and the pipe and resin build is heaps nicer. I just use the hasbro if I'm trooping around a lot of kids it was a good choice too as last time I did that some of the kids tried to lift my blaster from the holster while I was talking to some of the others, luckily my wrangler was on the ball cause I had no idea it was happening. I keep my good blaster for conventions and so on where people are a bit more respectful.

I have my beloved Precious - from TK Bondservnt. But, for troops, I'm scared to take it.

Now I'm bidding on a cheapie Hasbro so that I can let the kiddies hold my Hasbro, and

save "my Precious" for fancy parties.

I heard one of the Rebels in my garrison tell a dad he "preferred [his kid] he did not hold the gun"

which is totally acceptable, but I don't have the heart to say that to a kid. Mabye it's the "step-mom"

in me always needing kids to like me?!!! Probably! Good luck on whatever you decide, but don't

forget the kids and parents when you troop. It will probably come up sometime! It was the dad

who asked if his kid could hold the gun... not the kid. Not sure the kid cared one way or the other!

If you paid for a kit, don't bother with a doopy dud. Save your pennies and get yourself a real blaster.
