I have been looking for a project to do this year but so far nothing appeals to me yet, so I decided to finish off a few odds and sods that had been bothering me.
The first is my QB/SA80 rifle everything was finished apart from a magazine, http://airgunhome.com/agforum/viewtopic.php?t=8519&highlight=bullpup the holder was fitted but this was used to cover up the original trigger unit on the QB78, this trigger was still operational and controlled by a slave trigger at the front of the rifle, it cannot be removed or moved to a different position so a workaround was needed.

I came by a genuine SA80 magazine complete with some fired 5.56 rounds the other day , so the idea was to make a new magazine holder to take the correct magazine complete with a few 5.56 rounds installed, the trigger would still be in the way but when the magazine was fitted the trigger guard would push the 5.56 rounds down the magazine, allowing the magazine to fit fully into the holder, but when removed the bullets would pop back up to there correct position
I do intend to install a pellet dispenser in the magazine at a later date but for now the gun is complete. I think!
