[NicR94]

@soutwi nope! its 100% all me

[soutwi]

@NicR94 well they r fucking awesome!!!!!!!!! I also like ur short movie films and ur carbine. u should make a k98k if u havn't already.

[NicR94]

@soutwi Thanks man! yeah I have before but it was junk... it was horrible. and im more interested on making a japanese arisaka

[soutwi]

@NicR94 yeh you should definetly!!!! You should also make like an L96a1 sniper. I made one, i think it's pretty good, urs would probably be better than mine if you made one. I could upload a video on my account and attach it to one of ur vid for some ideas if you want (even know you probably won't need them).Keep up the awesome work.

[soutwi]

@soutwi you should also make a lee enfield smle or something.

[ImSecretlyANinjaShh]

Make a Japanese type 100 sub machine gun! It would go great with your nambu replica!

[freezebox732]

can you put a magazene in it?

[NicR94]

@freezebox732 nope

[TheWoodenGuns]

Howd you do the rubber band?

[freezebox732]

@TheWoodenGuns lol

[TheWoodenGuns]

How do you make the Charging Handel?

[shermonruler]

you can't put a rate of fire on a semi-automatic weapon -_-

[NicR94]

@shermonruler yes you can... you calculate the time of your triggerpull to the bullet leaving the barrel, times how many rounds you have in the weapon. research my friend... obviously if you know anything about firing projectiles there is a ROF. even on bow and arrows

[shermonruler]

@NicR94 but varies from person to person on semi-automatic...

[NicR94]

@shermonruler no it doesnt... read what i just said above..

[shermonruler]

@NicR94 but it varies thats the whole point of semiautomatic!!Fire as fast as you want

example:you empty 8 rounds in a second then it would be 8X60=480 RPM

Because it's semi-auto it varies so it could be 2 bullets a second to 1000(theoretically of course) thats why their is no set on semi-auto

[NicR94]

@shermonruler okay.. when you calculate the rate of fire. you dont calculate from person to person.. you calculate the time of the mechanism its self and how long it takes to the mechanism to strike the round, have it leave the barrel and how long it takes to cycle a new round, reset the mechanism, set off the mechanism again. you take the time that it takes to do all of that and you put into how many rounds its possible to get off per minute. go see a firearms proffesional and he'll tell you

[shermonruler]

@NicR94 wait so you were saying the rof not the rpm then?

[loipza]

I remember watching your crossbow made of chopsticks video @NicR94

...Now your not a kid anymore.

[NicR94]

@loipza lol i was 11 or 12 when i made that. im 17 now.

[loipza]

@NicR94 Lol :D

[dstruxness]

how do you mold PVC?

[NicR94]

@dstruxness you cut about an 8 inch size peice of pvc. then you get a torch or a heat gun and bend out where you cut the pvc. once its as flat as you can get it by hand, you heat it up again and place i between 2 peices of wood and either clamp it or stand on top until it cools off and holds its form. then you draw out a the peice you want and cut it. then mold it again, to your final likings.

[dstruxness]

@NicR94 Thanks!

[SuperLegoguy99]

Country of origin was actually Canada not the US.

[NicR94]

@SuperLegoguy99 It was made by a canadian. but made in America

[SuperLegoguy99]

@NicR94 Yah I know that but I meant it that the gun was first used by the canadians.I knew it was made in the US.I wasnt saying it was wrong either jus Canadians were first to use it

[BANZITOMMY]

Very nice job! I used to make prop guns and it is a lot of work. Very clean job.

[Roboman08]

Nice model, but wouldn't be cooler to buy the real thing! They seem to go quite cheap in the states.

[BANZITOMMY]

@Roboman08

The going price for Garands nowadays is $700-$1000. You can get them from an organization called CMP for $500 however you have to be a member there.

[Vestrilizer]

i should make my own(: i use 2 make a lot of stuff when i was a kid but i then i stopped): u just earned a sub :D

[TheMauserc96]

I ONLY HAVE TO SAY ONE FREAKIN THING

ITS AWESOME WORK

[JTshoot]

Hey, does it actually work or is it a prop ? It was too boring to watch.

[The360lilNinja]

Hey, I am a huge fan of yours and I want to make a replica M1A1 Thompson and a M1 Garand or M14 (which would be better to build) and I really wanted to know what thickness wood you use and how you cut and shaped it? Any way great video!

[NicR94]

@The360lilNinja its just regular 2x12 from home depot or lowes. to make the shape. i use mainly a bandsaw, a dremal, and an electric sander. and another main tool you need to build this is a drill with a variety of bits

[The360lilNinja]

@NicR94 Thanks, if its not trouble could you give me a link to a good layout picture or reference photo? sorry if im bothering you but really want to make this good....would a 2x/9 work?

[JessesWarMovies]

Really nice dude! No mistakes at all with the shaping on it. Even though you used both wood and PVC for the receiver, it all looks like one solid metal piece just like the real one. I've been making a quick solid one with no moving parts recently so I can actually use it without worrying about stuff breaking lol. I used some PVC which has turned out pretty well and I'm just waiting on some motor oil, I'm gonna try do some bluing lol. Thanks heaps for the shoutout, cheers.

[NicR94]

@JessesWarMovies Thats nice man! and yeah, no problem!

[22Bomers22]

Wow, again a nice gun, can you give me some tips for my m1 garand?

[ShaneThompson94]

Definetly better than the old one, looks great man. great finish, looks exactly like the springfield 30.06

[yay4guns15]

oh ok 

[A13XHTV]

Semper fidelis

[mgcarmydude]

Very cool M1 garand!

[CookieOnMyShoulder]

the disliker is a troll

[armyfreakm1a1]

the real one is 43.5 inches long not 42.5

[NicR94]

@armyfreakm1a1 your correct. but i just the extra inch make the rifle seem bigger than the real one... I dont know why but it does.

[2ndRangersbn]

i wish i had that great of m1

[osu67]

Nic, you really need to get your dad to get you a real Garand from the CMP before they are all gone. Great job on the replica!

[NicR94]

@osu67 whats the CMP again? is that the thing where veterans get M1's? and thank you! i appreciate it!

[eldiablo9604]

coooool!

[yay4guns15]

are you loading live rounds into there???

[NicR94]

@yay4guns15 no lol. i just use live rounds in the photos.

[ArmenianLegion]

sweet man! looks REALLY GOOD!

[NicR94]

@ArmenianLegion thanks. I also added you in the end by the way

[ArmenianLegion]

@NicR94 Thanks MAN!! btw I'm getting all that sound effect stuff you wanted together. I should have it ready by friday.

[NicR94]

@ArmenianLegion Awsome! thanks

[montenlsn]

that is a great m1 rifle

[nerfgunnut926]

you do a great job do you literally say "widdle" out the stock of do you get replica bodies

[NicR94]

@nerfgunnut926 i carve out the stocks. every replica i made was made out of wood i bought at home depot. i just sketch out on the wood what i think would be the actualy size of the peice and i cut it and sand it till it becomes a realistic looking stock

[MrZerostr]

Movie quality replica right there. Nice job.

[predatorX9]

omg this is so awesome :O
