Or we could just build the TR8.

Mar 31, 2010. 3:54 PMshadowninja31 says:

Or we could be productive and notice the be nice policy and say good job.

Apr 2, 2010. 6:32 AMThe Jamalam says:

Or we could notice that was in no way malicious and accept the constructive criticism: this is in no way new and innovative, a TR8 will perform just as well.

Apr 3, 2010. 5:19 PM182515 (author) says:

Actualy it has a new triger and a new type of handle as well.

Apr 7, 2010. 5:48 AMThe Jamalam says:

Neither of which will affect the function of the gun. The trigger on the original worked fine, so why do you need a new one?

Apr 7, 2010. 1:25 PM182515 (author) says:

The trigger could affect the gun depending on how far back it blocks the ram, and it was new and i thought it was neat. if every one used the same triger on each gun there would be no point to having diferent guns out there.
The handle thing could be argued all day but the main thing is, This handle is at the natural angle that you hand rests at so it would help you be more accurate than with the tr

Apr 7, 2010. 2:35 PMThe Jamalam says:

Yes, but the TR8 default trigger blocks the ram at the ideal point. If it was any further back then the ram would have virtually no grip on the barrel and fail/bend. The hand can rest in pretty much a 90 degree range. Look at the M1 garand or the Springfield, a lot of guns like that have handles at about 10 degrees off horizontal. It doesn't affect it too much.

Apr 7, 2010. 2:58 PM182515 (author) says:

Look at the instructions on my acount this blocks the ram the sam distance back.
This has a PISTOL grip and the handle is at the best angle. hold out you hand and pretend you are griping a pistol. where you hand rests is prety much the angle that this handle is at.

Apr 8, 2010. 12:18 PMThe Jamalam says:

What's the point in having an outstretched arm comfort when you have a stock? Or vice versa.

Apr 8, 2010. 12:35 PM182515 (author) says:

For me that is the most comftorable angle no matter what.

No more arguing. I like my gun and if you dont like it you dont have to comment on it or build it.

Apr 8, 2010. 1:05 PMThe Jamalam says:

See, the whole point I was making was constructive criticism. Even that, you can't take. I was suggesting that what you have done should be improved by more innovative design, but if you can't take it, that's fine.

Apr 8, 2010. 1:45 PM182515 (author) says:

Constructive critisism is when you try to help someone improve on their gun. not when you try to prove that the TR is better than my gun. also constructive critisism offers sugestions not just saying that another gun is better. you need to say how the other gun is better or why this is bad. Bug/problem reports are good to.
Thanks for the attempt at constructive critism anyways. : )

Apr 8, 2010. 2:05 PMThe Jamalam says:

Erm. I believe I did tell you what was wrong with it.

Jun 2, 2010. 2:00 PM182515 (author) says:

You ever going to tell me what was wrong with it?

Jun 3, 2010. 1:30 PMThe Jamalam says:

I beleive I already did, as I have already said. Why resurrect an old argument?

Apr 8, 2010. 2:08 PM182515 (author) says:

As far as i can read all you did was ask questions and tell me that the TR was better than this. What did you thank was wrong with this?

Apr 2, 2010. 8:11 AMshadowninja31 says:

Or we could say we agree with you, but it's a good gun anyways.

Mar 31, 2010. 2:53 PM182515 (author) says:

Three things
1. This has a stock that actualy reaches my shoulder
2. This has a better handle
3. It actualy blocks the ram farther back than the TR allowing it to get better range.

Mar 31, 2010. 3:53 PM

DJ Radio says:

1. You can extend the TR stock if you want.
2. I guess you're right there.
3. Do me a favor and measure the pin pull. Pull the pin back and measure the exposed black rod, not the black rod that's in the gun or the connectors that connect to the black rod at the end of the pin, just the bare black rod.

Mar 31, 2010. 4:38 PM182515 (author) says:

1. As a base gun with no modifications this stock is longer.
2. Thanks
3. 15 centimeters/6 inches

Mar 31, 2010. 7:56 PM

DJ Radio says:

1. I wouldn't really consider lengthening the stock a modification. You are basically making the gun fit to your preferences by extending the stock, which is objective. Some prefer shorter stocks, some prefer longer stocks. The length doesn't improve anything in all reality.
2. Lets just discontinue #2. From next comment on, #3 is #2.
3. I just measured my TR's pin pull. It is also 6 inches.

Apr 1, 2010. 10:51 AM182515 (author) says:

So its basically a tie

Apr 1, 2010. 12:03 PM182515 (author) says:

Sorry comment wasnt suposed to be Bolded.

KnexFreek says:

OR if you just wanted to mess around and youve have already built a tr...

YOU SAY THIS ON EVERY TURRET GUN. JEEZ.

btw awesome job 5 stars!

Apr 8, 2010. 12:22 PMThe Jamalam says:

Dude, we say that on turret guns because they are exactly the same with a changed body.

Mar 30, 2010. 4:16 PM~Aeronous~ says:

POST POST POST! in the 'PROS' section, you forgot to say
Looks Awsome!
Pin guide!
slide action (kinda) easily made like that with a small mod.!

Mar 30, 2010. 4:32 PM182515 (author) says:

Thanks but the gun is in "pistol mode" right now (stock went to a semi auto gun idea) : )
I actualy tried to make this slide action but it didnt work to well.

Mar 31, 2010. 4:00 PM~Aeronous~ says:

its simple, if you look at how when you pull it back, the yellow con with the duct tape around it, put another yellow con infront of it, except make it so it goes through the hole in the middle, leaving it friction frree. I can show you on skype if you are confused.

Mar 31, 2010. 4:55 PM182515 (author) says:

O.k i understand. thanks

Apr 1, 2010. 5:06 PM~Aeronous~ says:

no worries! you could probably also fit the TR18 turret onto this!
the instructions are on Hiyadudes account. just make the turret and put it on this!

Apr 2, 2010. 12:18 PM182515 (author) says:

I thought about doing that for when i post it.

Apr 2, 2010. 3:53 PM~Aeronous~ says:

so are you going to?

Apr 2, 2010. 4:24 PM182515 (author) says:

Probably. I think that its worth it.

Apr 3, 2010. 4:49 PM~Aeronous~ says:

good! cant wait! I built my version of this, it has a pin guide aswell, so I can't wait to build this one.

Apr 3, 2010. 5:18 PM182515 (author) says:

If you build mine could you tell me wich one is better?

Apr 5, 2010. 11:36 PM~Aeronous~ says:

oh, my one is 3 connectors thick. this one will definitely be much better, but does it have an auto turner?
