Title: Vigilante Tactical Carbine Mod.....aka The PUG
Post by: soolio on September 30, 2013, 01:29:10 PM
The wait is over!! My apologies for such a long wait...between tight funds and the lack of an accessible computer, this has been an exercise in patience for me as well. And as always, I'd like to thank you guys for inspiring me to do these builds...anyways, without further a due, It's my pleasure to introduce to you The PUG (Personal Utility Gun. Pretty Ugly Gun, etc;) lol...

BTW, this thing hits everything I point it at, and is so much fun that I've almost gone thru 500 pellets in a week!!! The Vertical Grip was a bipod, but i modded it to hold the flashlight, laser and extra C02 cart. I gotta head to work right now, but I'll post more details(and a video) later. Thanks for checking it out;)

Thanks for the comments guys;)

 Here's a pic of the grip/bipod I modified. I got it from Pyramyd Air for about 15$. I took the "bipod" part off, and cut the release spring in half. Then I drilled a 5/8 hole where the push button release was and installed a Coast G10 Pocket Flashlight (10$, 32 lumen's single bulb). Then I put the half spring back in the now open grip and used a Rubber Plug to close the hole to store a spare Co2 cart plus act as a nice end cap. My buddy at work gave me a laser from his old Smith & Wesson(late 80's, early 90's). I used the same threaded post to secure it to the grip and it rests against the barrel shroud.

Everything I put on this gun can be taken off. It can be fully broken down. And the best part....it's convertable...pistol to carbine and back to pistol in seconds :D

The Red Dot is a TruGLO 30mm. 32$ on sale at Turners.

You know how to have as much fun with your guns as anyone I know.

I know they're on there, somewhere... but I can't find the tweezers!  ;)

Lol thanks Eric! I think these guns really bring out the kid in me!

I'm actually getting some small tools together for the pouch to go along with the 3 extra mags and a tube of PellgunOil that are already in there;)

I guess it was only a matter of time...took the 20" barrel from my AM77/2100 and it FITS!!! I shot 2 mags thru it...much quieter and seemed a bit faster :D That was WITH the transfer hole and NO barrel stop...those will need to be modified. This is only the beginning...next will be a shroud and LDC...

I'll have to come up with some serious stabilizers for a long barrel to work. Maybe I'll chop it and leave just enough to put on an LDC.

This gun looks like a mean sparrow stopper. I bet with the long barrel you are utilizing the co2 much more efficiently. I would cut it down inch by inch until you see a slight fps drop. Then you know what they perfect length is.

I took the release button from the Vertical Grip Bipod I wasn't using....I cut it to size, then JB welded it to the release tab on the Vigilante 357. It works great!!!

That is redonkulously awesome.

It looks like something out of a sci fi movie!!! actually is a CO2 version of the circuit judge...LOL If the 2100 barrel fit,a 22oo barrel would also fit... and you can re drill the pellet cykinders on the drum... voila!!! .22 carbine. Touch the valve and get a bit more efficient and you'll have a winner.
