Jackals, did you have any problems with the C8 body? I had heard a few people had trouble fitting it to the TM internals.

Any help would be apprecieated, as I'm hoping to do someting similar in the near future.

I believe that's the Gen 1 and not Gen 2

Ya it's the Gen 1.

I have 2 gen 1 gaurder C8 bodies and they are a bit of a tight fit
3 thing I noticed on mine were you need to pry a bit on the back or the upper reciver when sliding the mechbox in.
You need to file the inside of the selector switch side of the lower revicer becaue sometimes it's too tight to allow the selector plate free movement.
You need to file out the magwell just a bit becasue mags will either be too tight or not go in at all.
Non of the work was too serious and you gotta love the results

Trufet named it all right on. I havent filed down my mag well though. I prefer the tight fit.

mine were so tight I couldn't get mags in but my buddies was almsot perfect right off the bat so you never know.

mine is really tight, but i like it tight, cant fall out while i am running like my old TM one did.

Small update here on the project. Did some painting today and here is some more results

Other changes include the addition of my Tactical Yellow Flashlight for all your night blindness purposes :P

I am looking into a Crane Stock to hold the battery to get a larger battery capacity. I have the rest of the internals on order and should be arrive in a couple weeks.

My pbase has been updated with more pictures.

u gotta do somethin bout that yellow

yea its the temp flashlight till i get a chance to paint it black .......... I feel a song coming on here

Curious. Why is the reciever in the first picture colt?? i can see the logo.. and if it aint colt, i know for sure its atleast not the maple leaf like in the rest.

because that was before he got the metal body.

Its the gradual process of turning it from stock TM M4 to Colt Canada C8 SFW.

ok.. i was thinking it wa just supposed to be pics of the finished products..

Helo!
How did you do or What kind of the outer barrel?
