JamesAirsofterAgent Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Before I get a load of hate, let me explain my self I just fancied a little "project" of sorts, that would involve taking something apart even if it was plastic The toy is a Colt .45. I would love to "give" it a functioning slide (if that's what it's called...) and a magazine. Not one that when you pull the trigger it goes back and forth, but just a "slide" that you could pull back and release. That's the gun I plan on doing it on. Hmmmmmmmmmm Got some plans drawn up and have disemboweled some pens and made it quite heavy. I would really like some feedback and advice etc and to know if its legal. It wouldn't shoot anything either. Thanks.

Moose87 Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 why not get a really cheap springer?? or a broken gas pistol to fix?? cavninja 1
SimonQuigley Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 As fun a project it could be, it does seem pointless, could just get a cheapo 1911 springer and once you've got a defence, paint it?
JamesAirsofterAgent Posted October 5, 2014 Author Posted October 5, 2014 I don't realy see why its pointless...... The reason for not getting a springer or something like that is due to not being allowed. As for the point, I was going to throw it away and I thought why not make good use of it while I cant do much to the diorama that I'm making and it involves taking something apart and building stuff :-0!!!! I dont get what you mean though, as I wont have to buy anything and it won't be high on my list of priorities, in a way, something to do when I have done everything else I need to eg homework etc.
TacMaster Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 I don't see the point...if you want to take stuff apart and put it back together why not just buy some LEGO 3-in-1 model kits? cropzy 1
Supporters jcheeseright Posted October 5, 2014 Supporters Posted October 5, 2014 yeah, this seems like you've realised you can't polish a turd but you've decided you're going to roll it in glitter anyway. JamesAirsofterAgent, TacMaster and Monty 3
Supporters Monty Posted October 5, 2014 Supporters Posted October 5, 2014 You're not allowed to have a toy gun that fires BB's but you're allowed a toy gun that does nothing?
JamesAirsofterAgent Posted October 5, 2014 Author Posted October 5, 2014 Could someone explain why this is such a bad idea, I'm at a loss.........lol......
SimonQuigley Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) Why put time and effort into something that won't really do anything and will probably not be able to have the functions you plan on when you could just convince a parent to buy you a 1911 springer with the same functions but can actually shoot something. Not trying to hate, just some constructive criticism to give you some ideas Edited October 5, 2014 by SimonQuigley JamesAirsofterAgent 1
TacMaster Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Waste of time and resources to get a toy gun working, which won't fire BBs full stop..... I think you're trying to do too many projects at once, I'd just work on your diorama, finish that and then buy an AEG if you can? JamesAirsofterAgent 1
straffham Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Toy guns, takes me back, anyone else have any of those Italian Edizione Galactoli (I think thats what they were called) cap guns when you were kids (talking early 80s here lol)? Laughable to think they'd be classed as rifs now!
