Backtheattack Posted October 21, 2016 Share #33 Posted October 21, 2016 Ronny67, thank`s for this thread. Because of the new law in Europe dealing with demilled original weapons model weapons are a legal alternative. EU government try to restrict ownership of demilled former original weapons as an answer to terrorist attacks. So the way you build this model is very interesting.

Ronny67 Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share #37 Posted March 1, 2017 Carry handle primary construction is done. Pop Rivets are ugly, but strong. I will polish this up quite a bit before paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronny67 Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share #38 Posted March 1, 2017 It looks real good and weighs about 10 pounds so far. One of my big concerns is strength, so everything is over built. High stress areas are metal or Oak. Sorry Robin, the front sight got broke off a few months ago when the barrel assy was kicking around my closet. A new one is on the list...

However, I have a question for the community: What is the length of the M23 "Beer Can" flash hider? I plan on making an M23 for my build. Any specifications or photos would be helpful.
