My Sniper Rifle Build

Recommended Posts

Always been a fan of Battlefront and decided I needed a sniper rifle. Didn't want to go with a kit... just kind of made it up as I went with the parts and such. Furtunatly I had a spare Hasbro E-11 laying around.

 

Totally forgot to do a lot of wip pics... so here's prepaint of one side.

Had planned to use the tree guard (Wal-Mart garden center) as a template for vent holes. Got lazy and didn't feel like cutting them so just used some hose clamps and expoxy to hold it on.

This is an adjustable stock and a portion of it extends into the E-11.

Primed... I used a 45 automatic spindle adapter from an old record player as the clip.

I may weather it a bit in the next day or two. Have another scope that will clamp on to extend the Habro one and then I'm going to add some weatherstripping sponge tape to part of the barrel for a grip.

I skipped on the weathering. May do it later along with adding a bipod.

Not even close to any kind of screen accurate but it was a fun project and didn't break the bank.

the scope looks great, did you just added some extra pvc? I'm seriously considering doing this. i have an old e-11 w/ doopydoos kit installed that i don't use since i upgraded the blaster to an accurate one. so what the heck? :P

It's great to be able to use your imagination and creativity to do the non-canon stuff. Looks great, and I'm envious myself. Guess I'll have to keep checking Goodwill and other charity stores for an old Kenner/Hasbro E-11, or dig out the one I painted and threw in the plastic gun box!
