Has anyone seen one of these available for print anywhere? Battle Arms Development discontinued it but I'd like to try one. They call it a lightweight butt stock and it just clamps on the end of a milspec carbine or A5 buffer tube.

I've searched the odd sea but my search-fu isn't the best.
Thanks in advance

EDIT: found what I'm looking for on Thingiverse under "lightweight buttstock."

Never posted in this forum, but saw the "request" topic and figured I'd give it a try.

I'm looking for a model of an FAL, somewhere between 1/2 to 1/3 scale.  I'll do the calculations on it if anyone is interested or can tell me how to go about it.
It doesn't have to be particularly detailed.

I'm not sure what that stuff means.  None of them seem to be near the size I need, and a lot of them are just digital models.  What I'm hoping to find is a printed FAL about 19 inches long.  I don't have my own printer.

I'm not going to reverse engineer something that is from someone else's design when said item is openly available on the commercial market. I've had far too many people do that exact same thing to me, and it's not cool.

If you like the design, pay the $5 to get it. To be frank, that's downright reasonable.

Now if it is something that is no longer offered for sale, or not something ever offered for sale, or a design that is in the creative commons IP space, that's another story.

I've having a terrible time finding a case for my shotgun chokes, they're extra long/extended. I also have salvo chokes that aren't like anything else. I can provide measurements but would like a printed case for 8 long chokes and one for 6 salvo chokes should be able to securely close, have a little room for neoprene foam.

Also would like to make a light mount for a scuba FFM.

No I ended up making it out of HDPE and ABS. 1/2" HDPE for the bottom then I used 1/8" ABS and heated and bent it around the perimeter and screwed it to the HDPE bottom. It doesn't look as good as if it were 1 piece, the screws are an eyesore but it serves its purpose.

part/CAD design request here...trying to make an ACR clone upper, but cant find any available files online that will help me with the raised & ported slip-on blast compensator section of the barrel, or more importantly, the unique birdcage-style flash hider...

the closest part found online was this French-distributed .22LR component: https://www.suppressor-thread-adapter.com/product/birdcage-flash-hider/

can anyone help with at least providing a CAD file of the birdcage flash hider component? it seems to be the forerunner to a regular A2 birdcage flash hider, should not be too difficult to work with in CAD....

I'd like to change the design to make it modular and allow for multiple lengths.  I think I know how to do it, I just can't do what I want in Tinkercad.

Yes, I'm wanting to slice the existing model into two pieces, make a mirror of the end piece and add dovetails to all three sections so that they will snap together and can be modular in the sense that you can have just the two ends, two ends and a middle, two ends and two middles, etc.

I have a plan for all of that, I just don't have the skills yet to make it happen.

Probably a long shot but here goes. I'm doing some scale modeling work and one of the things I'm looking for is a 1/6 scale 30 round magazine for an M1/M2 carbine (Vietnam era). I can find 1/6 15 rounders all day long, but the 30 round version is hen's teeth as apparently very few were made by the toy companies in China (Dragon and SOTW/Formative). Anyone out there that can print any? They obviously don't need to be functional at 1/6 scale, just solid plastic. Looking for say 5-10 of them.

Alternatively, anybody out there who can create STL files and has one of these mags? My buddy has a 3D printer, but so far I haven't found any STL files for what I'm looking for.

I don't get into this forum much, so please PM me or @ mention me if you can help. Thanks!

Problem: Tavor safety sits in a spot that bothers my trigger finger.

Hopeful solution:  As small of a cap as possible that can replace the safety lever.  Contoured to avoid as much contact with trigger finger as possible.  Fwiw, I’d just go without a lever but the shape of the end of the cam is not comfortable, and of course it looks pretty dumb.

Printing material:  Probably doesn’t matter much since the part will get precious little contact, stress, or wear.

Thanks in advance.

Just create a new body in that spot that intersects, then join them. You should have a far easier time once you have the added geometry
