UPDATE! The CA Gas Cylinder Broke!!! Replaced it with and 300%Upgraded Spring Cylinder from my pals at Airsoft Extreme. So any references to the Gas Cylinder will soon be edited out

Well it had to happen sooner or later. I wanted to check out a Bolt action action rifle…

Originally this rifle came with a spring driven cylinder, and I was amazed at the power and range or the stock unit.

(Chronograph will be here in about a week so I can get some hard numbers)

But… as usual with me, I had to start upgrading the gun. I've already added the following:

  • BEC 4×30 Sniper Scope with Lighted Reticle
  • First Factory APS2 PPS Bolt Handle
  • First Factory APS2 PPS Scope Mount
  • CA Complete APS2 Level 2 Cylinder with 300% spring, spring guide & ver3 vacuum piston
  • Commander Bipod (Verspod Clone)
  • KM APS2 SV Silencer
  • Gaurder Sniper Cheek Rest
  • Props Canada 7.62mm Dummy Bullets

  • Close Up of the First Factory Upgrades

    I was impressed on how the gun shot stock, but after adding the Gas Cylinder it shoots insanely hard. I had to order heavier bb's to see if I can get the bb's flight path under control.

Poseidon – Seburo – CX Compact Xploder – Maruzen PPK/S New Type

{simplegrade:2}
Manufacturer: Maruzen (Japan)
Manufacturer: Poseidon (Japan)
Type: Gas Blow Back + Garage Kit

Well it had to happen… I will now attempt to build the Seburo – CX Compact Xploder, a line of weapons dreamed up by Masamune Shirow, the author of Ghost in the Shell and many other wonderful Anime and Manga.


Here's what the finished product looks like… I hope mine looks this way when I'm done.

[[[Update]]]

You wanna quick way to f-up a perfectly good Walther PPK or Resin Model Kit? Just send them my way… One thing I found out a bit too late (After Bonding the Seburo Slide to the Walther, is that the PPK New Type is different in dimensions then the original Maruzen PPK/s this resin kit was built around. Needless to say everythings a mess right now, but I'm a working on fixing it all.

[[[Update]]]

OK… after hours and hours of putty-ing and sanding and airbrushing flat black and gun metal…


The Seburo next to its' owner

I still need to work on the mag release and sanding the slide down a little more, but it shoots as a stock PPK would. Slide blows back. May need to get a harder recoil spring.
