I've heard on the LEs the paint comes off the canon plastic when removed like it did with TNT detonator plastic so I'm worried about removing it :-)

Peter

Got my platic cover off without any problems - no paint loss. Cannon fitted easy after the hacksaw job. Just had trouble finding a longer screw and spacer to attach it with - Bunnings sold out of that particular size only! (4x 15 mm by the way).

now on and excellent. Looks like it belongs, and easier to aim. Well worth the $9.
now for the code upgrade....

Cool ta ill have to pull it apart and work out how to cut it up lol also did you line the canon up with the bracket to drill the hole in the canon.

Yes, as per the initial video. Very easy to do. the new method shown keeping both sides of the cannon support end looks cool though too - but probably more difficult to cut.

My first attempt at fitting Chinese canon mod I'm happy so far just need to cover plunger area looks better than original and much easier to aim at targets so far so good.

Hi,

No not at all really but mind you the led lightning bolt flashers blind me so I see f**k all anyway lol but seriously the back-box lighting has a dimmer switch built in so you can adjust it to suit your tastes :-) there expensive but to me worth every cent  ^^^

have a mod almost ready for the Hells Bell Aluminium block - waiting on some special wood grain plastic, a big thanks to ddstoys for helping me on this one. I designed it with artificial splits and end grain to give the weathered timber beam look. It will be a simply slide on and click in place - no glue, no screws and easily removable for the purists that don't like mods. PM me if you are interested, prices not available until I complete the finished ones but aiming for under $30.
