I can hot a squirrel in the head from 100 yards with the open sights. I love shooting that thing, but hate cleaning it. Only thing I shoot anymore is my DL-19 heavy Blaster rifle but being a Sandtrooper we cant hit anything Johnsfolly, slothman and BilletHead 1 2
grizwilson Posted December 22, 2017 Posted December 22, 2017 I still use ivory soap and hot water on the hawkens, fought the new wave stuff for years..... if you are shooting sabots, this is the ticket....

slothman Posted December 22, 2017 Posted December 22, 2017 I've been cleaning it in the bathtub with hot water. I may have to give that stuff a try.

U want what I actually paid for it.... or what I told my wife I paid for it... I'm into it for about 3k. but I have done a lot of mods. I have customized the helmet with fans and voice modulator. USB battery pack to power everything. The armor is an actual first lineage 1976 A New Hope reproduction by RS Propmasters Sand trooper. They purchased the "Move Along" sand trooper armor from the movie when it came up for auction. The helmet is a signed Anthony Forrest collectors edition. He was the Storm trooper in the movie that was Force tricked by Obi-Wan "These aren't the droids your looking for" in Mos Eisleys. I am part of the 501st Vaders fist group. We troop for anyone that asks..we just ask that a donation be made to a favorite charity and if folks dont have one we support the Make a Wish foundation. I am an officer in the Mos Eisleys PD. It took quite a bit of doing to get approved... my Trooper number is TD-11516 which happens to be the serial number for my armor. I have a blast doing it! grizwilson, Johnsfolly, Daryk Campbell Sr and 2 others 5

I have a stout little Renegade. could never get the buffalo ball to shoot consistently. And the smell of the Black powder and steam would send everyone out of the house when cleaning it!
