Thread: The Simonized Axe

  1. #1

    The Simonized Axe

    I was bored one Sunday evening sat at home and realized I haven't made something just for myself in a long time. So a few hours with a few beers and I came up with this...

    This is how it started out with a design that reduced down the back of the frame and the foregrip...





    And then that ended up with the frame looking like this...



    Next was cutting down the body.

    Here's the weight of the stock body...




    So it got put on the "Mill" diet as seen here...



    And then it ended up like this...



    And here is a side by side comparison...



    So next the reg needed to go on a diet.

    It starts out a little "chubby"



    And then gets "svelte"





    And finally a mock up of the full gun (with cut down bolt guide too)...



    She's together and shooting now. I'll have it with me at Tunaball and Living Legends. I still need to decide on an anno pattern. Suggestions welcome.

    You know... just say'n... maybe that would be cool to offer f/s to the insider guys on this forum :P

    Hell, I'd take one. Ive been meaning to buy an axe. I have been on the sidelines nursing my leg after surgery in Dec.
