Heck of a job in front of you. Can’t wait to see it. I had a pair by that same company . I had a 629 classic that had a round butt , they had the classic grips that converted it to square. They were a good quality.
Hi, Can't you use rechargeable 8g or maybe 12g sparklet ? Maybe you will get more space ? Like this, the sparklet will not need to move A hole in the wood grip to reload the sparklet
Hmm. If you shorten the grip you might be able to use the 8 gram CO2 canisters. How about cutting the bottom of the plastic grips and glue the to wood grip? Not sure how good it will look 🤔. Good luck whatever you choose😃👍
Thanks for your message Rune. Yes this a bit perplexing! I did the video today as received the grips only yesterday. I have now cut the piece from old damaged gun and it does fit. I’m now thinking about seeing if I can get this welded in place. But then I’m wondering if the heat will damage the chrome plating. I have many ideas running through my head right now. I have carved out one side of the new grip apart from the very bottom until I decide on what option I will choose. I did think about smaller co2. I’ve been working on it all day so I’m taking a break and will sleep on it and look again with fresh eyes and mind tomorrow. Definitely won’t be using any part of plastic grip though. I like a challenge but this one really is a challenge!!
@@Waxmax Just be careful with using any sort of heat on the gun. I think its made of potmetal/zink and will melt at only 420 C. Maybe soldering is an option. Not sure 🤔. Good luck with the mod😃👍
Amazing!! Can’t wait to see it on your video. I do miss your replica airgun videos. I’m also toying with the idea of buying the 8 inch one. There is a company here in uk selling new for £130. As I already have the old useable parts from my black/blued one, I would have the option to swop the barrels over from a new 8 inch to my existing 6.5 inch. I just love this model. Always have.
@@Waxmax Thanks my friend. They didnt have the 8 inch in BB or pellet. Only in 6mm airsoft. Iam looking forward to use it. Maybe powertune it like you have done. Hope you post more videos soon also😃. Greetings from Norway😃
Hello again. Every time I watch a video of yours, I love this channel more. All your thoughts shown here, are mine, as I will someday buy the same replicas and/or others, and I want to change their grips, of these very models, and others I do not own yet, but I have seen on videos here, and photos on the sites. Now: rechrome this material, well I do not know, my friend... Ask those that know non-ferrous "metals", like zamac. 😮 I know that now they chrome these sort of metals and even plastics, like these we see here. ( I am not teaching you anything, as I can not, and you know away much more). I love building and creating things. I love D.I.Y.,and modeling diverse toys and dioramas. And above all, I love replica guns. How I'd love to own the Japanese ones ❤❤. 1000 Thanks for this video!!
Bless you. Thank you for your kind words. I have lots to think about that for sure. Might upload a shorts video tomorrow with a small update on progress so far.

Yup it sure will be! Did you have the same issue?
Good work bro. Whish you a good luck.
Thanks. I think I need the luck!!
had you ever think about doing some holes and putting magnets on it?
Thanks for your question. That is exactly what I did. Check out my channel and other videos and you will see 👍

Thanks for the message. It uses a 12g as standard. I am considering different options right now but it will continue and not quit. Just hope it works
