About ~500 rounds into it. I think I can safely say now it won't blow up. It still is a weird thing to shoot, knowing who made it and the laziness at times put into it. After a few changes in magazine design, I'm in a little of a hundred rounds without any real notable issue in feeding. Feel happy with the latest lifting cams I've made for the magazine.
>>64131630This is now an aesthetically pleasing guns we'll never own thread.
Groups are nothing spectacular. I can't complain by them, but neither awesome or bad in my mind. With feeding finally being sorted, I've been doing a few little tests to see about improving groups. This group shown isn't bad, but I think I need to go back to a previous level of barrel tension. It has a bit of a vertical stringing to it.
>>64131641That's on me for not attaching the group pic...
>>64131640Just make your own, anon.
>>64131647Airshit, but atleast nice airshit. Early 90's Asahi made Wa2000. Nicer than the Geneth made one of the same era, and in my opinion than the later Ares or Best Gun made ones.
>>64131648thats still an impressive group. are you handloading for it or just using factory ammo
>>64131673Just factory load by a brand I recently found locally on the shelves called DRT. I've tried hand loading without much success, but... everything I've loaded has been pretty questionable at best with just using what I can find locally. Feel like it's been a decade since I can find good primers, powders, and bullets I actually want to use instead of just "eh... this concoction might work" components. I could order online, but at the point it's not worth it after paying shipping.
>>64131630>this autism againGood on ya, OP. This project has been vastly entertaining to catch updates on. You should be listing the previous threads in archive; I'm certain I've missed a couple by now.>>64131641>>64131648>Groups are nothing spectacular.Sez you. What distance? Got any others at various distances? You should plan on doing a video or two at some point.
this guy posts pathetic shit on ig. l
>>64131630I am always happy to see updates to this. One of the only worthwhile things posted on this board in several years. Keep up the good work
>>64131705I'll do better for just you. I guess.
>>64131705Like what ?
>>64131640
>>64131640whats that
what gun resembles pic related the most nowadays
>>64131790probably an M1 carbine with a custom wooden clamshell around it
Love your work OP, also lmao I have the same flork doormat too, based choice
>>64131630This board is at times inundated with spergs going on about their BeatTheATF3DPrinted Gunshit 9000... And then you post again, and show everyone what they could achive if they actually put some work into it.Nice work Anon, and please keep it up.
>>64131692Why wouldn't you call an ammo company, show them what you have in these threads, and get them to send you free shit for testing?
>>64131630whats stopping walther from making new WA2000s or some other company cloning it?
>>64132294
do you use stopping power or skip it and go for headshots
>>64132293It is a pretty inefficient design that isn't very cheap to make. Compare that to just making an AR10 that would shoot just as well for way less money.
>>64131630Oh, hello again op. Noice.
>>64131658>>64131635Holy shit newfags.
>>64131630>God gave me the rightSource?
It's funny how every time you post here, anon starts seething immediately.>>64133603What a curious thing to say.
>>64131630Excellent work anon. Man, how long has this taken now?
>>64133612Well I need a source, because without it, saying God gave you right to violate one of the amendments is bordering on blasphemy.
>>64133627You've never read the Bible nor do you believe in God. Not playing the game, enjoy burning in hellfire after dying in home invasion.
>>64133638Ah I see, you're one of those memetic zoomer Christians.
>>64133647Ah I see, you're one of those nogunz semites.
>>64133627What the fuck are you talking about retard.
>>64133627>bible is full of moral men killing in self-defense>anon is relying on misinterpreting a translation from the 1600s instead of actually getting any kind of religious education
>>64131630siiiick
>>64133684He is trying to weaponize Christian beliefs against a Christian, while not believing. Standard tactic.
>>64133627Commandments you mean, which states not to murder, did Jesus not tell his followers to arm themselves for defense? Did David not slay Goliath? Did Samson not smite down enemies of God? You are pedantic and hold no good will to God or his followers
>>64133688To be fair they were mostly killing Philistine shits to whom the commandments don't apply.
>>64131658
>>64133722NTA but most Christians (at least in this country) don't know shit about the Bible and contort their beliefs to fit their narrow world view.It is very... depressing
>>64133627you are such a lying sack of shit, have fun burning in the hellfire you threaten us with
>>64133820>>64133594The second rifle someone posted ( >>64131647 ), that was quoted there, is in fact a asahi airsoft wa2000 though. Not sure why retards are confused
>>64133722What is wrong with this image though. He's using the guy's own logic against him, and it makes the guy seem hypocritical.
>>64131658literal fucking newfag, lmaokill yourself
>>64131630shame that this thread got derailed so hardthis is why we can't have Nice ThingsThanks for trying, OP. This has been a cool project to follow.
>>64131630So what now nigga ?You gonna make and sell these things ?Gonna release the files on how to make them yourself ?
>>64134075>waaah i dont have to be morally consistent with my own supposed morality because you have a different one!Pretty much the level of mental gymnastics I'd expect tbqh, and quite literally the pot calling the kettle black.
Love me gunsLove me ChurchStop arguing and praise anon's rifle
>>64134164Yeah, that is what I said, totally. When was the last time you actually read anything from the Bible or any global holy book?
>>64133603NTA, but...
>>64134063The one in the quote is actually a airshit made by Asahi in the earlier '90s though. I don't know why who ever posted it decided to post it, but yea, that one without the bipod is airsoft.
Based retard
>>64131630How did you get one
>>64133627Got em'GG bud that took very little effort.
>>64131630Welcome back brother, good to see it's still running well. Enjoy it. I'm studying machining right now, I plan to make my own custom hunting rifle, once I finish that I might have a go at something like your beauty.
>>64131658LolFuck off retard
>>64133722Do not murder, does not say do not kill. If someone is breaking into your home with the intent to do harm you are not murdering them by defending yourself, even if you kill them
>>64133889Ah shit, I fucked up then. I thought he was directing it at OP
>>64134146Files? Dude that's hand made
>>64134462You're agreeing with me anon, I was refuting the guy claiming that self defense is wrong because "Thou shall not murder" is in the Bible he never read
>>64134606Funny thing is he never claimed that to begin with. Y'all jumped him cause he activated you. The floor mat never states or implies self defense. Y'all just jumped on it (like a bomb).
Stop arguing, nowYou have to listen to this
Everyone arguing about a meaning behind the doormat is a actual, literal, nigger faggot.
>airsoft clone gunboring
>>64134686You're a fucking moron, kys
>>64132293You can buy a keltec RFB.
>>64131783Kel Tec RDB M43
>>64134657>>64134679>>64134681Don't be dense anon, none of this is about a doormat, someone threw shade at the biblical backing of self defense and was then called out for it
>>64132294>>64132296This is rumored to be in a private collection somewhere and we may never know where or ever see it again.
>>64134686>he doesn't knowFucking grim
>>64133722>Did David not slay Goliath?He didn't. We know this from story being conflicted in 2 Samuel where it states Elhanan killed Goliath. This indicates that the initial story had Elhanan kill Goliath, but it was changed later on in order to add to Davidic myth. This is a well observed phenomena by Jewish and Christian scholars that indicate over time David went from being a hick warlord and barbarian to a great and wise leader in order to comport with the myth created about David after the fact.
>>64131630What math did you do to make sure 300 win mag didn't grenade your face?
>>64131630When you say it's "weird" do you mean it's literally weird to shoot or you just think it's weird to shoot because it hasn't blown up knowing you made it?
>>64135088He probably did the ol' "tie a string to the trigger and pull it from behind a barrier" trick.
>>64135178That doesn't mean the metal isn't fatiguing and wont blow up at the 3rd or 3000 round mark.
>>64135192It is what it is.
>>64135192Like the other anon said, if it blows up, it is what it is. Here is a quick video of a mag running through it. https://youtu.be/zmST5ecn32c?si=kaehh_JaZxKE2ifX
lmao https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60sr_OOixe0
>>64135094NTA but point of balance is very much to the rear, which sounds awesome until you realize it's a pain in the ass to rest on anything and is only really suitable for shooting standing up.
>>64135268Wish I never sold that Asahi back then, but, it paid for a unfired and still wrapped in the box NDM-86. Think I sold that Asahi for ~3300$ back when I made that video for the buyer, so I can't complain too much.
>>64135192I think you're overestimating how much math goes into a "real" firearm. You only really need to do a lot of math if you're trying to make something lightweight, otherwise "that seems about right" is often more than plenty.
>>64132293>or some other company cloning it?https://www.troupsystems.com/product/r2000/
>>64135621That looks awful though.
>>64135280People will collect the weirdest things
>>64131648What's the scale of the grid on the paper? 1" per square?t. Noguns
>>641361451'its a very large paper
>>64135621How do niggARs manage to be so consistently tasteless?
Wtf is that
>>64131630Jesus fucking all that is holy, the mad lad is still at it. Fuck the haters from a few days ago. I commend you OP>>64131700I got you homie. https://desuarchive.org/k/thread/62456427/https://desuarchive.org/k/thread/62990963/
>>64132293Ask picrel>>64135621Disgusting >>64136034>>64136230About twenty years ago there was Ironwood Designs. Guy did custom 10/22 wa2000's. They were well made and beautiful. Sadly, he died of cancer a couple of years back. Good luck finding one. They're about as rare a a real wa2000.
>>64134180>ai slopboomer
>>64135280NTA but holy shit that's a hell of a swap; I'd have no regrets. But I totally understand selling something stupid rare to get something also stupid rare still wishing you didn't sell it angle. A Dragunov or NDM is one of my dream guns.
>>64136661NTA(s) but I was wishing that guy would do another run of those year after year up until he died. I remember the kits being sold secondhand for frankly not that much IIRC here and there for a couple years at least. I really want to get into silly lookalike stock kits but I really don't have the skills to make jigs (yet) so I'd be limited to making molds and fiberglassing. A CNC might help with making (repeatable/accurately shaped) real wood stocks, though.
>>64137749Just buy a PSL, it's better.
>>64137803Can't help the want for an SVD; played too many 90s/00s games. Also holy fuck have you seen what happened to PSL prices over the years? They're retarded as well. If you've had experience with both I'm curious what your reasoning is. I know Battlefield Vegas used to rent out what they bought as a NIB NDM-86 and had to stop (last I read) because they just couldn't get parts to keep it running but I doubt I'd reach that kind of round count.
>>64133627Only retards believe in your imaginary God.
>>64137990The PSL has a stouter (or at least less noodley) barrel. It's also a normal AK inside so you don't need to have replacement parts custom made. The Soviets got very good at making AKs, I don't know why they keep trying to throw that away with the SVD, VSS, AEK, AN94, etc. Meanwhile, brand new AR parts will fit directly to an original XM16E1.
>>64134221he made it
Is it ethical to own a watuk and not assassinate people for personal gain?
>>64138134Go back to redit, faggot>>64138155As someone who's owned a psl, ndm, and tigr, the SVD's are superior to PSL's in every way. If you shoot dog shit 54r ammo, then it doesn't matter which of the three. If you shoot quality ammo, the SVD's always shoot better.
This and that slav making the Cyberpunk Quadra in real life have been my favorite DIY projects to see progress>>64131630Looks sexy
>>64131640Shut the fuck up, tourist.
>>64137788Based dub dubs, chkdYeah, I wish I would've jumped on one of those back when I came across them. Truly a missed opportunity. Always hoped his wife would've sold everything to make them to an honorable man to continue them.
>>64134473So did you keep all those measurements and spec in you head the entire time ???
>>64139321Post it notes
WTF does an anon here actually have a WA2000!????
>>64140819Madman made his own actually.
>>64140829Epic.
>>64136648>got you homie>https://desuarchive.org/k/thread/62456427/>https://desuarchive.org/k/thread/62990963/Thank you! Turns out I was there for both those threads. Nice archive of info. I'm almost sad I didn't miss one or two more.And, thanks again, OP. This is some premium /k/.
>>64131630I didn't think Incel cringe could get this bad, but you've taken it to new heights chief.
>>64141760And here we see a faggot seething
>>64131630does it feel like space magic?
>>64134606Yeah sorry, three hours sleep. Quoted you and not him
>>64139321Yeah hang on, let me send him a post tube so he can trace all the drawings. You dumb bloody bitch saar
>>64141760
op did you have to use a shaper or something to make the barrel extension?
>>64142352A 4 pitch ACME threading bar was slightly modified in profile to match the bolt lug profile, it was then used to cut the lugs in the extension on a .2362" pitch, along with jigs made for holding the extension piece for repeatability. Jig in the lathe to repeat threat start degree, and jig in the mill to index it correctly for the three lug pathways to be lined correctly when torqued into the receiver. A sacrificial extension was made, ID threaded at a mathed out, but still estimated, thread pitch start, and then it had the lug pathways milled out. With the first one I could assemble and measure the bolt face, do the math to change my thread start degree to dial in and move where the bolt needed to sit inside by how ever many thousandths I needed it, and then a second one was made that came out how I wanted it. ...in a nutshell
st militaria a french gunshop has 2 of them iirc.price not displayed , but when sorting by most expensive, its amongs the first choices so, hehe.https://www.stmilitaria.com/fusils-walther/5060-walther-wa-2000.html
>>64134146>the fileslollmaoyou know nothing about how things like this are made
Not sure why everyone is assuming I stone aged pencil papered it lol. I pirated solidworks years ago, taught myself how to use it, and then drew it up in it. But no, fuck off, I'm not sharing the files. We already went through this in a previous thread, and I go through it nonstop of telling seething leaching faggots that they I'm not giving them my files lmao
>>64144280Based. You should put it all onto paper in some manila envelopes and leave it in a box for your kids to find 10 years after you die.
>>64144335If anything, I'd love to get a pen plotter and make some ~1:2 scale blueprint style art.
>>64144364I just happen to have a plotter sitting in my living room.Would need to get some better quality paper to do art prints since I mostly use it for targets.
I have a lot of random wire screenshots saved from solidworks blueprint maker. Wouldn't be much work to lay more down at various angles or with cutaways. Make for some cool pictures to be penned out on that gucci old school blue paper. Looking at them right now. They don't seem too expensive at all. Might have to actually give it a go.
>>64133722It's not ok to by hypocritical just because the person saying you're hypocritical is also hypocritical and a non believer. Logically speaking that is. And morally. The picture makes no sense.Both people in this imagined conversation will end up burning in hellfire if there is a hell.
>>64134075>and curses them with God's wrath if they don't.Gods wrath. At no point does Wisdom 6 give you permission to not follow the law, even an unjust one. It simply promises dire punishment on rulers who "do not govern justly, if you do not uphold the law, if you do not live according to God's will" which is after they die.It is not a permission slip to murder policemen. It is not a get out of jail free card for murder. You will still goto hell if you do this.
>>64144404>>64144423maidenless banter between two Prince Herberts
>>64144364It's super cheap these days, you just get an old piece of shit ender 3 and use it to print a bracket that replaces the toolhead and holds a sharpie.
>>64144390If you get a roll of transparent acetate or vellum to use with your plotter, you could then use that to expose a cyanotype, which is how those oldschool blue prints were actually done.
>>64144280>seething leaching faggotsdoes your wife know you say things like that on the internet? you're cringe, pal
>>64144280This post made me lose all respect for your faggot ass. Instead of ignoring people you throw a baby bitch fit. I hope your shit blows up in your face now.
>>64144623>dOeS yOuR wIfE kNoWShe also said you sound like a faggot.
>>64144629>Anon throws fit that op won't give him his worklmao
>>64144659I don't even want your work just reading your little tantrum genuinely made me dislike you faggot.
>>64144700He’s absolutely right though?
>>64144629>saaar give me files saaar plz
>>64144700I pains me that anon#f46607 no longer likes me now over a simple comment, but sport, I think I'll manage to get over it and find a way to survive.
>>64144364I have access to a large format pen plotter, we could make 4:1 scale blueprints
>>64131630Ngl, I doubted you in the early threads. I'm glad I was proven wrong
>>64131630Nice dude. What an awesome project. Glad it’s really working. How does the barrel shoot?
Thanks for the update

Still a bunch of jews seething that they can't get prints and models to something that they don't have the skill or equipment required to make?
>>64142551Motherfucker that is wild stuff. Presumably you're in a shop professionally, correct?Really well done. I've got a knee mill and lathe at home, but something off this technical level is beyond me without years of exp. I would imagine.
I'm surprised this thread is still going...>>64160635Yea, I do work as a tool and die guy, and a handful of my friends have machines of their own that I play with for odd projects like this. I have no clue how to convert to webm's and don't want to bother figuring it out right now, so here's a link to the lugs working. https://youtube.com/shorts/B1h-J2wMt0Q?si=Bk5M8oaHk30ZReHi

>>64144390Modernized version looks good anon.
>>64137788If you google 10/22 WA2000 you’ll see that 3dp trannies have started making shells so you can make your 10/22 look like an ugly piece of shit abomination in the image of a WA2000
>>64164242whiter than you
I gotta say, it's amazing just how much absolute dog shit "wa2000" replicas there are there. You have the ugly as sin 3 printed shit that turns either AR or 10/22 into a hideous block of printed plastic. There is Rhineland arms R2000 kit that turns a AR in a heavier and blockier AR. The Ironwood 10/22 kit, that's look, acceptable, but is still a pretty far fetched looking Wa2000.And then there is, this unholy abomination that you can have custom built for a slick deal of only $3k (+1k if you want it FDE painted). The AW Combat Aw2000...
>>64164927easy enough in current year
>>64165054what the hell is even that
>>64168993Its a faithful Wa2000 recreation made by AW Combat, anon. It can be yours for only $3000
>>64169706>>64165054This looks like absolute dogshit.
>>64159475>picture of a gay mexican jew
>>64165054I love how it just looks unfinished. Prototype version one? Yeah engrave the fucker and throw some bluing on it. Might as well varnish the wood too. The fuck is that god damn pistol grip? Looks like someone made it with a CNC router. The edges look barely chamfered. The whole thing looks like it was CNC'd or cut on a saw to avoid all and any extra work finishing it by hand. God forbid the pistol grip of all things doesn't have a 90 degree hard edge on every face.>>64169706>$3000lmfao what the fuck were they smoking? Imagine spending $3k on that instead of...IDK, anything else? You could probably find some pretty decent vintage guns for that price. Or, like, even more than one.
>>64131630So, was this ever actually used to neutralize a perp in a hostage situation or is it just a legend in movies and video games and owned by a handful of eccentric collectors?

>>64169706Labos are getting ridiculous glad I sold my Switch
>>64177100It's not really a strawman, because it so very clearly is in response to anon failing to understand the Bible.
I'll be honest, I didnt expect a doormat I bought one late night a whim because I got a laugh out of it would of caused some autist anons to get in a banter on the theology behind it, but here we are. I guess. Anyways, here's a piston inside a gasblock. Above and below the gas block are rubber cork pads, with below it I experiment with various thickness shims between .002"-.015" to change the tension of the barrel and how it effects my 100 yard groups.

>>64179093cool
OP is extremely based and I enjoy these threads even with the seething faggots shitting them up, thanks wa2000 anon
>>64131790Thats technically any carbine I pick up
Hey OP, how does it feel knowing you're cooler than the rest of us on this board?
>>64184744He doesn't even like the rifle. The autism of the process is all
>>64159475> t. mutt
>>64131790g43
>>64131630This is the coolest thing that has come from this board in years>>64131640Fuck off phone poster
I try to make a video only for here to show fellow retards the bolt and the lugs working, and youtube slaps my dick for counterfeit nonsense. Wild lol
>>64190809Well I mean you do have a counterfeit WA2000 complete with the WA2000 and Walther markings, so...
>>64190830Based because that's trueBut also that video removed was just a zoomed in shot of the bolt lugs rotating while looking through the mag well. Literally nothing else. Of all the ones, that one lol
>>64135088he used an HCAR bolt. designed for 3006
>>64193803I used a MkII BAR rotating bolt. I've had some emails with Otto Repa, the designer of the Wa2000, and he also said that he used the Browning BAR as base to design off of. The civilian 1960's BAR, not the WWII one. Two completely different systems. At the time, it was one of the only semi auto magnums around.
>>64131790That magazine actually looks like it would make a comfier grip than the stock. They should have made it a bullpup.
>>64193891>I've had some emails with Otto Repa, the designer of the Wa2000That's cool as hell. Did he like your project?
>>64165054Holy fuck that is the laziest pile of shit I think I've seen.
how did you make the magazine? did you somehow make a jig to bend it out of sheet metal or is it stolen from another gun?
>>64144629>me lose all respect for yourwhy would he care about you retard?
>>64194129He did, bit of a trouble in translation, but said I could make great firearms designer some day lol. I was surprised to get a response to begin with honestly.>>64194135I cheated and used a AICS single stack magazine, thinking it would save me time. The feed lips had to be heavily modified, and lifting had to be welded onto the magazine. Went through 3 different magazines and multiple cam designs being welded on, removed, and rewelded on. Currently am more than satisfied with the most recent mag mix up design. >>64194290Brown hands do what they do best, seethe
>>64179093I know you don't want to share the files and shit, but have you done/would you do a boomer style weblog covering the build, like what tools you used and what processes you employed to achieve the finished result?At the very least I'd like to know how you learned to do that kind of work, it looks quite professional.
