See, I kinda want to do this, as my RS vector has a brace. Just to make the two even more similar...

 
I got a nuprol XL hard case today and stuck my pulse rifle + shotgun and UGL for my scarh in it:

Kinda regret putting the UGL in there and not a sidearm + mags. gonna have to buy a new layer of foam and re-do it.

A pair of old west guns. 

Ones an Schofield r hopped, the other started life as a boneyard .177 umarex pellet gun, covered in john wayne logos and with loads of writing all over it, fixed it, the accuracy was woeful, converted to airsoft, r hopped, refinished and just waiting for a pair of new homemade inlays to cure so I can replace the awful grip logos.

Both guns are refinished by polishing  then using chemical blackener, gives a real steel like finish.

I personally hate cutting foam cases; having moved entirely to pluck foam myself. But you can't deny that when done properly, it looks so much better haha.

 
The old girl got a face-lift :D

In all honesty I've been wanting to do a KWA Vector build for forever. I've lurked on the FB page for some time now, and had an idea of what I wanted to do, but I knew one thing was needed for sure before I invested time and money into the project - an HPA drum. Ive tried the GBB primary route and despised it for a single reason - the mags. Thats why Ive converted so many of my GBBs to Daytonas - WE Masada, VFC M27, etc. Especially here in the States, where its all about highcaps and volume of fire (I do miss UK airsoft; running around The Mall with my TM GBB MP7 or dual pistols...). While I dont need 1000 shots to get a hit, 40ish shots was a bit too little, especially when you go to reload and find your mag has leaked all the gas out. So a drum is a must. As such, my Vector has sat, and sat. 

Then, I got an offer. It was a bit steep IMO but I took it, and then I was the proud owner of a broken Reaper Airsoft Customs drum mag for the Vector. Let the build begin!

The repair ended up being easy - a lot of epoxy and drying time and it was good to go. I didnt want to use a cheap China clone for a sight like I have on some of my builds - Ive had Daytonas throw off their zeros before. So I used a spare Vortex Sparq AR red dot I had. Magpul MOE irons and AFG2 mod to match my real Vector, Ace1Arms right hand mag release (so much easier when using the drum), replica Surefire M600DF light and my signature blue-lasered PEQ hooked up to a dual pressure switch. I also had to add a 45* rail for the torch so that I could still fold the stock. I have a Defiance .45 ACP suppressor but I am unsure if I will use it due to not needing an increased inner barrel due to FPS gains... Cover the remaining rails with ladder covers and add a sling swivel stock pin and the build is (externally) done. Still need to decide on what to do inside though... Yes @rocketdogbert I will use the FB page for that.

Yea its basically precut square foam sticks. You just pluck out the ones you want and it shapes decently. Look at my posts on the previous page about my HK417A2/G28 project - thats a pluck foam case.

Hello, i have 2 airsoft guns but i dont remember models of them. can you please help and say what models are those??? its cyma but idk exactly

The pistol appears to be a CYMA CM123. AEP 1911 and all that. Uses CYMA CM030/G18C AEP mags. 

The AK is more difficult, as we have no idea what you've modified/added in terms of externals. That being said, it looks like it could be the CM076E, but the mags are different, it has a different stock, and different flash hider. However that is most likely it.

Obvious questions; where did you get the foam from and what tools did you use to cut it?

Because that's looks as quality a finish as any others I've seen!

Thanks man. I wish I had spent a bit more time on it to see how it cuts but I'm a carpet fitter so ive got quite a few Stanley blades and I got the case from jdairsoft.co.uk so i dont know much about the foam but it was like little squares that had a little tag holding them together. But thank you for the comment, I'm new to all this so I was hoping I had done it right.

Thank you
