MOAR Stryfe/Rough Cut Masterkeys (well, just one)

Just another Stryfe/Rough Cut Masterkey. Nothing too special beyond its predecessors. As always, looks bendy in the photo, but is still aligned perfectly straight.

Specs:
-JSI Masterkey integration (changed up the RC trigger guard a bit)
-"Selectable Slamfire" capability
-LSFG extended barrel (just a smidgen short of the full length one)
-RM2 motors swap and necessary electrical rewiring (no inductors, no thermistor, no locks)
-Flywheel grip improved
-Ready for overvolt, but sent with a AA setup
-Weighted grip for counterbalance

The "ShortStrike": A Minimized, Elite-ified LongStrike

A few weeks back we got an email asking if we could build another elite-ified LongStrike, and it we could make it more pistol-like buy lopping the front off. We said yes (duh). I give you (what has been done individually but probably never together) - The ShortStrike. It's nothing short of a modified Retaliator though (haha, punny).

Specs:

• Front minimization 
• Retaliator internals transplant
• OMW 2x spring and 2x catch spring 
• Stock quick-lock mod

We're sending it back to the owner, who wanted to do his own cosmetic work, but we beautified that hole in the front end up pretty well. There's also some process and comparison photos here, but it's all the finished at the bottom. Also, only one half of the priming bar was sent to us, so that's what is pictured.

Elite-ified internals, pre-minimization.

End result.

Mass Effect N7-themed Rayven

Well, we finally got this bad boy out. It sure was a hassle and seemed like one thing after another kept going wrong with it (especially when trying to order the decals). Anyways, the guy who commissioned this is finally receiving it back after it has been sitting in my garage for the last 2 months in various stages of completion. I feel like the weathering looks a bit off, and the clear coat lightened the black coats by a lot, but it turned out well overall. We like it, we hope the owner likes it, and we hope you like it too, as we move into more detailed cosmetic mods moving in the future.

Rampage Re-grip

Simple enough mod that turned out pretty well - splicing a carved up LSFG priming slide onto a Rampage grip. Also features a removable tac-light mounted into the new grip. Very streamlined, very shotgun-y. I like it.

 And at long last, Damian (the commissioner) is finally going to get 75% of his order in the mail.

A look into the mind of an 8 year old

For my little cousin's 8th birthday, I told him that I'd show him how to mod one of his Nerf guns in the workshop. I even let him choose the paintjob, it's interesting how it turned out...

Specs:

• Black/Grey/Silver "trashcan"-camouflage pattern paintjob
• ARs removed/turret sealed
• OMW 2x spring replacement
• Clutch mod

It's not exactly what I'd choose to paint a gun, but he likes it and it's on par with all of my other modded Mav's (including the TBM).

We're not dead, we promise.

Things have just been slow, very slow, the past few weeks. Full time work/classes (in Sam's case) are eating all our free time. We'll be posting the latest orders through JSI in the coming weeks though, just have to get time to finish them.


... and the ammo counters are on the way too...

Borderlands 2 - Jakobs Gun Maverick

Here we have part of a recent order that is really turning heads, a Maverick painted up in the theme of a Jakobs Gun from Borderlands 2. It came to us with a full suite of mods, including AR removal, penny mod and Russian Roulette mod. We added a weathered metal and woodgrain paintjob, and now this thing looks truly amazing. Also, thank you to all the redditors who commented on the woodgrain work, I'll try to get a tutorial up next time I work with woodgrain.

Also, the final detailing is the silver faux bolts, not seen in all photos.
