The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

 Post subject: Working Grenade Launcher. Really no joke.
PostPosted: Fri Oct 07, 2005 2:49 pm 
Here are picts of my working grenade launcher on
my heavily modified G&P kit. It is using a 27mm
CAW grenade from a PEQ2 kit. Plus a altered
remington 870 trigger assy. and many custom ABS
and metal pieces I made. Someday I will have to document
this whole thing properly. Here's a break down:

1. Front view. You can see the laser that is mounted
in the rear of the barrel vent. Also, the bezel I
made for the light gate to work with the Phil S.
barrel triangle

2. Side view. The grenade and the battery underneath.
I cut out all the vents of the cage and repositioned
the slide connection of the pump. The cage
is reinforced with brass extruded pieces inside for
strength.

3. I real working allen bolt.
Let's just say I did a lot of dremeling.
This removes the block and grenade.

4. Here it comes out.

5. The grenade block collar with the Nades.

6. Custom collar I made with 1-1/8 steel pipe.
Allen set screws on the side of the block lock
it in place.

7. Internal view. This shows the mounting plate
for the grenade. The firing pin is in the center.
This is linked to the 870 trigger by a metal bar
and modified trigger hammer.

Finally posting some picts. I've had this thing done
since May for OP lionclaw4. It is my only AS gun.
Until I get my koba vp for my bday this month.
It was tons of work, but I'm happy the way it turned
out.

Wow... that is... really... really impressive! :shock:

Awesome job! So from the looks of your design, the pump has no function. And whenever you want to reload your grenade, you have to unbolt the front grenade block. Is this correct? Perhaps not the most tactical solution for under fire combat, but still a very cool design.

Nicely done! :)
