my DLT 19 build! Pic Heavy!


Recommended Posts

hey guys just gunna chuck this out there for your interest and comments. one of myy garrison members has began to make mg 34/ dlt 19 kits. he hooked me up with one of his b grade pulls and one of the first ones out of the moulds. it has a few issues, but as im using this for trooping i wasnt too worried.as a b pull its still really good, he does some good work!

the kit!

the reciever needed the most work so to start i  injected bondo into the big air pockets at the front. after i did this i thought about transporting this between troops and decided to make the blaster break down into two pieces. realising the bondo job wouldnt stand up to this i chopped the end off and replaced with a piece of PVC pipe:

reshaped added vent holes and cleaned up good as new!

after i nstalled a male thread to the front and shaped a female piece to fit inside the barrel.

now its easily broken down!

so everything is cleaned up and ready to go, just having some trouble with the barrel holes and thier placement, finding t tracks (may scratch build these! as i live at the bottom of the world and i cant find a good local source!) and the ejection port cover.
