Modify on 1/16 M-4 rifle.

Hello All,

today I have show the steps "how I modify M-4 rifle". I have used M-4 from New World Miniatures (copy right and have agreements from company owner).

First, I have remove the Tactical sight on the top and remove rail system on left and right for add the barrel protecter at next step.

I made the barrel protecter with plastic sheet and attach to rail system with super glue..


this step made me crezy!!, this is Aimpoint comp. it made with plastic bars, lead foils and epoxy putty. all of these, conect with super glue and sculpt some details again with epoxy.

left side...

it size!, too small !.

This step, I have sculpt two roots on the top rail and sculpt a Forward HandGrip under the rail.


This is a Aiming Laser. it made with plastic sheet, plastic bars and putty.

OK, I start to made the structure of Rear Sight Cut-down. I use plastic sheet inside as armature and add epoxy outside. after it dry.. I have cave and sand it to correct shape. than, I add more detail in the last (no photo).


At last, I conect them together and it is... FINISHED!!!

Amazing work on the m4.It looks so realistic.
