Today I aquired Chewbacca's Bowcaster. I thought it was pretty good, but too large to only be getting ranges of around 40-50. So I decided to make it into a pistol. Realizing it could be made to resemble a Mauser, I went for it.




^^Edited in paint to show what it looks like now.

The handle has been shortened since the pictures.
It looks rather sloppy now, but I am all out of all tape, except Scotch tape, so I will hopefully clean it up tomorow.

I like where you're going with it. Just clean it up a bit and it should be nice. You might also want to think of another grip scheme for it. The grips will no doubt be the hardest to fabricate.


There's a picture of my personal C96 Broomhandle. Hope it helps.

I think that it's a nice mod because you really accomplished your goal...making a gun with pistol-like performance have a pistol-like size. I don't think it would have reminded me of a Mauser without you saying so, though, so I think you need to take some more steps if that's what you're after.
