Description
MORE PICTURES (And my whole WIP journey): [link]Finally finished with this project
Features: Recon fires around 60 feet flat without a barrel, probably 55+ with the barrel (Using stock Streamline Darts). Has a removable flashlight mount (reverse side), working laser, and a carry handle. Flashlight mount supports most flashlights (It's basically a hose clamp). Extendable buttstock (like a normal Raider), and a bipod pops up from below the foregrip (again, an original feature from the Stampede).
This recon was heavy on scratch-building. As for "base" Nerf parts, I used a Recon+barrel+mag, Raider stock, and a Stampede foregrip. Everything else was then built from scratch. No airsoft/replica parts were uses, and I'm pretty proud of that
Painted with a combination of sprays and hand-paint. Sprayed flat black using Anchor Brand paints (Asian brand) and painted/weathered with Tamiya and Mr Hobby paints. Colours used includes Burn Iron, Gunmetal, Metalic Grey, Chrome Silver, Flat Black and stuff like that
Wow, that's a long description. >_< Hope you liked it.

That actually looks really accurate. The Reflex Sight repainted would work too, and the stampede bipod/grip is realistic. I held a couple of real ones about a month ago at the Joint Services Open House at Joint Base Andrews (aka Andrews Air Force Base)

Thanks! I don't own the Nerf Pin Point Sight (I assume that's what you meant by reflex?), but I'm working on one with the recon tact. light.

Yeah. It does look really good. Both of the rifles I held had real Reflex sights on then.

Thanks! I think it could have been more accurate if I actually used replica parts, but where's the fun in that when you can scratchbuild? XD

Scratch is when you you make everything. Like what I do. You Modded. And a very awesome mod if anything.

Or should I say, everything else is scratch beside the Recon body + barrel, Foregrip and Buttstock. XD
