After contacting local airsoft shop and being told they can't print the KS-23 3D print kit, decided to take things into my own hands.
I don't have any metalwork experience so what I could use was fairly basic, the fore end is essentially made from card, reinforced with some small metal L brackets.
Pistol grip is similar, made from card, the grip itself is just a metal weight with layers of card and tape to give it the desired shape. I tried to add as many of the small details of the KS-23 as possible, such as the raised body work on the sides and the iron sights.
Used a long barrelled metal Cyma tri-shot as the base and sawed off the barrel.
Mainly planning to have it as a "display piece" for my Russian kit, but is functional and solid enough to use despite the questionable material choice.
