After seeing your completed version, I'm saying no mas, attached is a photo of the gun glue ups complete. I need to do the inner workings now. Unfortunately my wife has me catching up some craft projects for our next show, so I'll have to put the gun to the side for a while.

Your finished gun looks great! I'll try to make mine presentable.

I didn't give up yet. Just busy with craft fair stuff. Got back on it this week and will work on it for a while. I know it won't be finished as nice as the one above, I'm hoping for a functioning one.
