Description
This is a remix of DoggiousB's airsoft colt monitor, altered and cut to fit a 200mm print bed. The 1918 BAR versions of the receiver have removed the pistol grip in exchange for a lengthened trigger guard, as the original 1918 BAR had. I do not have a gearbox to test with, so I do not know if the trigger has enough travel space. I rounded out the stock and added a buttplate so the stock does not have to be disassembled to access the battery. The lonexhop receiver files should allow for the use of an airsoft AUG/Lonex style M14 hopup unit, and hoptest is a small test portion that can be printed to test hopup fitment. I added holes for M3 nuts to reinforce the bolts that hold the bodyshell halves together. You will need to print 4 of the body pins, they may need sanding to fit but should help align the front and back portions of the receiver halves for gluing. I also enlarged the charging handle and added a channel that should be able to fit a standard airsoft glock magazine spring if you want a movable spring loaded handle, you will just need to add a pin to the furthest back hole in the left receiver (a cut off version of the body pin should fit). I have not had a chance to test print anything, so I cannot guarantee it will work. For further instructions and the rest of the files, please see DoggiousB's original thing.
Disclaimer: This is an airsoft TOY/PROP and in no way can be modified to function as a real weapon. This item should not be brandished in public, and it is up to you to know relevant laws for your area.
Update 12/23/2024: I added further cut segments of the receiver. I also noticed that I uploaded the wrong version of the right rear receiver. If you want to use the adjustable rear sight, please print the V2 rear receiver or the Update 1 Folder version. If you wish to use a fixed V notch rear sight, I included a part that you can slot into the existing rear sight area. The barrel taper and front sight block are sized for a copper pipe (or any other suitable tube) with a 16mm outer diameter.
