While you were out

WardenMac and I have been busy in the Gun Shop

Now look at that front sight post...you can see through it

Very nice work gentleman. That is an awesome MP5. Is it just me or is that scope texture upside down or flipped or something?

[AMBROSE]

WWOOWW... Super cool... I'd sure love to use one of those in GR.

Romulus...
I will be coming to this world soon.

Yep those are some fine looking weapons.

SC, the texture gets reversed on the other side of the wep. Im sure there is some way to fix it, I dont know how though. Ive heard of some people actually using a right and left side of a wep and texturing each side appropriately. Its hard to find both sides of a wep though. I have seen some posted that way, not many.

That's what I thought Mac just wanted to make sure is all. Like I said though it's a killer model and great texture job nonetheless.

Im sure there is some way to fix it. To tell you the truth, that has always bothered me somewhat. I try and use a scope texture without the writing on it but it looks so good on the correct side when you can read it clearly, lol.

The emoticons are nice, I like the ones with the beer of course

Very nice guys,just a few notes on the model  


While i like the sight,tasco is not exacly a great brand. If a operator wants a red-dot,they go Aimpoint.

Also,two small other points i'd like to make. Here are a few pictures to give you a better idea of what i mean.

Okay this one shows one very small point. Your MP5,is using a (S-E-F) trigger group,which is not ambidextrous,as seen in the photo here. Meaning,the fire selector is not on the right side,only the left.

In this one,an the former,you can see the suppressor well. It is an AAC (Advanced Armament Company) Striker II 9mm QD (Quick Detach) suppressor,just like on your model. The bottom suppressor is a threaded version,which is the Phantom model. The only reason i bring it up,is your Striker II seems abit long. I would shorten it just slightly,so its' porportions match more to the above photos (Notice how the grooves on the attaching end is much shorter on the real pics).

Again,these are Very small points. Sorry to bring em up,but you know me,i'm crazy like that   Cheers!

[WardenMac]

Thx for the input Picc. I have seen alot of weps with the aimpoint, I love the look of the scope but grow tired of modeling it over and over. I think that may be why cobra choose the reddot, a change of pace. You are correct, not that Im a expert, but almost in every occassion I see a actual photo of a mp5 in use, it sports a Aimpoint. Must be a great scope. Wonder how it would be deer hunting?  

[SST_Piccolo]

Actually, i'm not really sure Warden. Although it's not a scope however,scopes have magnifacation. The red-dot is just a regular optical sight,with no zoom. Like the Reflex,an Eotech series,you can use it correctly with both eyes open.

[WardenMac]

I was just kidding  . My hunting buddies would disown me if I showed up with anything other than Redfield, hehe.
