Thank you I can hall a team of 6 (not including the driver) all of the people are fully geared and are all abel to shoot through 3" sniper ports that can be closed up if you receive to heavy of incoming fire. The large flaps on the side can also be flipped up for greater visibility and easier shooting, but most people just look out the plexyglass windows.
It works very well for taking troops behing the enemy to pinccer them or flank them, and of corse my personal faverit tactic is using it to take sniper teams across wide open spaces and insert them into the thick underbrush where they can do there work!
I also have a trailer that is kinda the same but only has 2 wheels. When i get the time I am going to build a mobil command center, or bunker out of it to pull behind the APC to, this will give me the ability to be taking in a team of 12 safly. But thanks again


I dont think im to cool for anything IntercepterMR2, I think my ghetto home mods just needed a place where there fugly nature wasnt cluttering up all that clean cut good lookin manufactured equiptment! This is home!

Here is my new mag set up for sniping. All I need to do is paint it and find a nice real light spring for it. The back comes off for easy cleaning via 2 screws so if you chop it can be cleaned out. The tub where the paint goes acts as a mag and just pulls out, I have 2 of them so I can switch on the go, or i can use those tiny ten round tubs to fill.

Each Magazine holds 21 balls. All in all it cost 5$ for the LB fitting and 5$ for 10 feet of electrical pvc (3/4) a wood dowl that I use to put in the coupler on the end cost nothing for such little amount and for each of the pvc couplers (thats whats on the end) cost .47cents. I can make like 10 or 11 mags off the langth of pipe I got so its real cheep to. Its fast to switch mags on the go light and very low profile. The only thing i couldnt find was a real light spring, something like Ariakon uses in there overloard pistol.


I forgot to post also that I got materials to make a winter ghuillie suit as well as a fall one. (Then I will have one for all seasons) I plan on starting that right away. i would apreciate if anyone would post an idea for a cool looking sniper shroud that I could use to continue my sniper mod!

I thought that with a spring i could help battel the blowback up the feedneck. I dont suspect that it would be much of a problem because of the lower rates of fire just thought it would help. Or if your in an urban setting shooting out a window ect. You work hard to get into position for that one shot, so when you pull the trigger and it pops you wanna make sure there is a round chambered!

I hope you get pics of your stock and bi-pods soon. I got the material today to make a steal version of my MP7 stock so I will try to get around to that in the next few days as well.

Drill holes in that LB to vent any blowback. It wont stop it 100% but will help.

I wouldnt drill holes, for the idea you are talking about for venting I could just shim up the cover on the back of the LB and it would do the same thing, I dunno still would like a spring!

Ok, heres a shot of the stock at work. I still havent drilled the frame holes in the pic but I did a short time after I took this pic.

The way its sitting is now upside down. After pretending there was a frame to hold onto, I flipped it & adjusted it all the way down. It did kinda feel like having my DZ3 turned around it was so long.

Its to cold to go outside right now so yall have to wait one more day on the bipod pics & a better & maybe mounted pic for the stock.

whoa, i like the mag dude, but yeah all that homemade stuff? i love the homemade mods, it always seems to be so much cooler than the manufactured ones, im not sure why, but i guess its like what you said, its home! it adds a cool effect of the gun and you truly are making the gun your own. im going to have to try the mag thing that looks pretty swedish.
