10/22 Zombie Hunter part 3

Happy Ruger Day everyone! 10/22 is the perfect day to wrap up our Zombie Hunter 10/22 project...



If you missed the first two posts click on the links below

Part 2



Time to add some accessories, in lieu of a barrel band, I am installing this factory LaserMax band



What Zombie rifle would be complete with out a bayonet?? I found this one from Firefield, it mounts to a standard picatinny rail.

I am also adding the red dot sight from the LTR project



And one of these Eagle vented handguard covers



I also have these Ruger BX25 magazines jungle clamped via a Christies clamp set.



The bolts for the universal picatinny rail were a bit too long, so I ordered up some M4 x 10mm bolts


Finished









I was able to angle the bayonet and mount enough so there was a gap for the laser to shine through




The textured paint did a good job of hiding the scuff marks on the plastic butt plate. In a future project I will attempt to restore the finish on one of these.



I had to finish this post with a couple of shots taken indoors, showing how the glow in the dark paint works




On to the next project!
