SL8-PSG, thought I'd share

[fireball]

I've had an SL8 for a while but haven't used much so I bought a spare stock from a fellow CGNer off the EE:

I pulled the few bits off and drew some lines:

Used the following tools:

Made some cuts:

Produced a stock with less suck:

The way it should have come from the factory:

The grip and underside was; cut, braced, heated, moulded, sanded, filled, sanded, primed, sanded, painted (black), sanded and finally 3 coats of truck bed liner in a can.

I took step by step pictures but narrowed it to a few.

Very nice work, that's exactly how it SHOULD have been made!

Now that looks nice!

That's actually fraking amazing. If it came like that from the factory, I wouldn't even feel the need to make it look like the real G36.

Wow, that just fixed 90% of what I don't like about that gun.

Prepare yourself for years of CGNers asking you to do the same for theirs.

I bet some guys will soon regret selling their original stock.

thats wicked, i would never have to balls to try that extensive a modification

 

[enefgee]

You, Sir, have balls of steel - taking a power tool to a $2400 rifle without knowing you can get a cheap replacement. Outstanding. Excellent results too - HK should have produced that rifle like that in the first place, they'd sell a whole lot more your way than they do with that geeky crap they produce.

 

[00Buck]

Woah! Nicely done...

 

[50calshooter]

WOW dude,

You definitely turned the suck dial waaay down on that rifle

Congrats

 

[gallen270]

You sir a a real a class gun nut! Thats a real good job, you did fix 90% off the suck of that gun like they said!

One more thing, how comme almost every time i need info on a gun, see a nice picture of a gun I like or a picture of a gun like mine but with cool mod or a informative topic you alway got a share of that ?

 

[rally guy]

I also had a question. Was the stock full or hollow?

 

[Brordo]

Wow!! I like that new look better. That looks really professionally done. Nice work.
