I have a set of metal stock and barrel vents by Dean or Guns4Fun..cant recall who. The airsoft kit does not have these. Can I use the metal ones I have with the kit? Has anyone added sling mounts?

Steve

I haven't assembled my GnP kit, however, from examining the parts, the DeanO stock should be fine with the GnP kit. The vents might be a little different. As you know, the GnP kit, uses a light gate in the barrel support to trigger the counter. Using DeanO's parts... well I'm not sure if you can retrofit the light gate to work with it. So chances are you'll loose this functionality. Another issue is the way the GnP GL attaches to the GnP barrel support. There's a piece at the front, top end of the GL that sticks out, which hooks into the barrel support/vent. You may be able to alter DeanO's 10 hole vent to work with it.

Not without making modifications to both. The outer barrel is too large in diameter to fit through the front triangle.

The stock will also have to be modified to account for the wires that run up from the thompson through the hand rail unless you feel like re-wiring it.

DC is less than 25 days away and I'm in the same dropship.

I have done it, but it is not easy.
I used the metal stock,barrel vent,and barrel triangle.
You have to get a piece of black pipe to fit into the
barrel triangle. A lot of dremeling and a custom adapter
to rework the light gate. First pict is the 3d part that
slides into the barrel triangle.Notice the slots at the
top that the leds fit into. It hardly looks like the gnp kit
anymore, but in my opinion it is the best to work from.

Fine work there Mike ! Looks like you have assembled probably the most comprehensively modified G&P PR there is. LMK when you are able to print up/make up some more parts. Think I will pic'up a kit once you have.

I second that.

I'll have to come up with a different sling option for DC this year and figure out a way to keep the stupid mag plate from falling off and getting stepped on.

Steve, your forgot. It's Matt.

I know,too many aliens addicts out there.

I hope to post some more picts soon showing

the working grenade launcher and the laser that

is mounted under the barrel (hidden).

Tons of things to do but little time on the weekend.

Woops. But it's Scott, Matt! (no just kidding!):lol:
