Making a e11 Stormtrooper blaster.
In Star wars a new hope the blasters were in fact sterling sub machine guns with slight odd modifications.
-
The oddest one was to fit rubber gripper ( windscreen wiper rubber ) into the cooling holes of the outer barrel,Honest you take a look.
-
The magazine was cut down
-
Rifle hammers were fitted to the back end of the gun just for cosmetics
-
A m 38 sight was added
-
a heslinger counter was stuck on,these were actually used on production machines to count product/cycles of the machine
