Lancer Blaster Question

[DarthShlomo]

I am upgrading my kit to Lancer specs and looking at the blaster requirements.

• The scope has lens discs cut into the scope for a more realistic appearance.
  
• No decals representing cross hairs or similar.
  

​My scope is hollow with cross hairs. Does this qualify or does it have to be disc that looks like cross hairs near the back? Here is what it looks like.

hello,

 

glad to hear your going for lancer

 

as for your blater ... no crosshairs and the scope can not be hollow.

 

 

i would suggest cutting some scrap abs plastic circles, one for the front and one for the back, painting them flat black and gluing it into the front and back of the scope.

 

good luck with the blaster and lancer!

That's what I needed to know. Appreciated.

I put a disc in the back of the scope as suggested.

I also filled in the front of the scope and the barrel.

I also gave it a fresh coat of paint since I read other places that it should be plain black.

How does this look for Lancer?

Thanks! While I was doing the upgrades today, I replaced the firing stud on the handle with a rare earth magnet to hold it in my holster better. Works like a charm.
