Wasteland Arms UK Colt SOPMOD

Description

Wasteland Arm's UK branch decides to have a go at an American classic, the M4 SOPMOD. This kind will be issued to Special Service commandoes going into the desert. Rifled barrel extension in the supressor allows for suppression without a tradeoff in accuracy. Modified ergonomic handguard allows for steadier aim as well.

Made in PMG .6

Enh I'll be honest, I don't know why but I'm kinda disappointed by this. I spent 4 hours total on it, tons of layers, probably my biggest project yet. Yet it just lacks the flair I expected a larger project to have...zoomed out it just looks like another M4 mod...oh well...Ill leave it to you guys.

Okay, very nice! Sadly for you, I've decided that from now on I'm going to try and offer constructive criticism on nearly every gun I comment on. That means I'm gonna have to look for something wrong with it now...

*five minutes later*

Right, nothing wrong artistically at really - 10/10 in that respect. The only problem is the sights are slightly unaligned (R^, Fv), but the difference isn't too extreme so I wouldn't knock it for that. However, realism/workability gets a 8/10:

- That new cocking handle you've attached means that the bolt will not be able to retract fully from the ejection port. This means the round will not be able to get out as easily, and you may experience jams.
- The barrel is above the ejection port: this means you will experience reliability issues and it will jam more often.
- You can't really get a rifled barrel extension within the suppressor without compromising 'suppressability', to my knowledge. [link] The inside of a suppressor looks like that and I believe that's a 5.56 suppressor.
- FInally, this is more of a CAR-15 than an M4 SOPMOD. That carry handle isn't used on the M4, the M4 features rails on top, with the carry handle attached by rails.

As I said: these are minor points which don't reflect badly on the amazing artistry, I hope these'll be helpful to you in the future!
