Expanding and Dreaming of Possibilities.....

Quad G back here, and I've got a few things to get off of my chest.

First off, I think I want to have a second build.  Yea, I know I haven't even finished the first, but after looking at tons of parts and waiving through page after page of pictures and videos, I have so many ideas for many projects.  On top of that, if I get the chance to use a CNC milling machine and a giant chunk of aluminum, the whole world is mine.  From LR300s to CM901s (Okay, I played MW3, so what?  It's a cool gun), I could have EVERY M16 VARIANT UNDER THE SUN.  I sound like a gun collector don't I?

This brings me to thought number two, I have thought about opening up repair services publicly.  I've seen a few people on forums do tech work and it seems like something I could do.  I have been hesitant to do so because of my school work and regulations with my college housing.  I don't want to endanger a future I could have if I could simply avoid it all together.  That being said, I hate not having any money to build cool stuff, so anything could help me out.  I enjoy working on airsoft replicas, so I wouldn't mind installing parts or diagnosing things.

Bringing me to thought number three, I have thought about building WA guns for other people.  It could easily make me enough money to finish my own gun in under a year if enough people are interested in it.  I would probably not make any money on parts, just labor.  I wouldn't even consider it labor.  This type of stuff is something I enjoy, so it isn't even work to me.  Pricing becomes an issue though.  I haven't priced out what my build is going to cost, but I am expecting it to be around $1,200.  I would not want to build something that WA, G&P, or someone else is able to sell.  There is no way in hell I would be able to compete with their pricing.  I would consider though installing or changing parts out for someone on an existing WA system.

Probably the first step in helping someone build a WA from scratch is to sit down over the phone, or Skype and talk about their rifle.  I would start from front to back and see if there are any parts they have in mind.  It would easily take an hour or two to develop a mostly complete parts list.  It took me a month to fully develop mine!  Half of the battle would be finding the parts though, but now that I have scoured the internet, I have a good idea where to find everything.

I put up a poll the other day about me offering my services.  Leave a comment below if you really do want me to build a gun.  I might consider it.  Keep in mind that it is probably going to cost $1,500 with one magazine.  I would also like to hear what kind of rifle you would build.  Who knows, maybe one day I will make an offer!

Last thing to say for this post is just one thing, I have a good feeling I will be expanding this blog to cover other gas projects.  I just got a moderately new M1911 that I want to make a few changes to.  Look out for that in the next few months.  A few different guns from WE and KWA are coming out soon, so I want to snag those for my collection and I do plan on posting a review.  Next time I will have a few boxes in tow, and look out for a WE M14 review as well.  Thanks for reading!
