I've been toying with the idea of parkerizing it....

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

 

[Sgt Striker]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy??? It's a fricking repro, not the real thing!! Anyway I doubt I'll do it anyway, as it would be a real pain to take the thing apart to the stage where one could parkerize it...

Maybe you can take some pics of it with the mag out? Those of us who didn't go to Blast Off only have the really small crappy studio pics on Marstar's website which tells you nothing about how the gun really looks and feels.

Even some snapshots would go a long way toward helping some of us decide to buy or not!

Ooooooooooooooh, I guess I could do that. Will take some pics tonight, and should have them up by tomorrow. (maybe today, but don't hold your breath)

If possible, a brief writup of what you like and dislike about it would be nifty

Thankyou..... and I think it would look alot bettr as well... the bluing is just a little to "blue" for my liking...

Yes it has arrived, but it has the short mag, so I don't really feel like taking any pics of it...... looks kind of funny with that puny mag on it.

You dont want to take any pics for us because the mag doesn't look pretty. Ok Susie, when your ST44 comes back from the hair salon let us know

SGT STRIKER;
We will exchange your mag if you wish,
As for a park finish, this was correct towards the end of the war, it would have to be a "greenish colour"
We have a couple of thousands at one time, new in their crates....

Sgt Striker;
The blue colour rendered on these units is indentical to the earlier finish used by the producers....
Then again this changed as the war progressed....
One will find light blue, dark blue, grayish blue, hi gloss, "satin" finish, at the end parkerizing....

OK folks;
Anybody who wants hi rez files (photos) let us know, we keep the pictures small because most people are on dial up or have limited capacity mail boxes....

Yea, my boo boo..... the "bluing" is really nice and black. Don't no what I was thinking when I said it was "too blue" for my liking? Anyway, I have posted some pics on another thread.
