Hi all, I haven't came since much time. I worked on new replica, the french rifle, the MAS36. Enjoy I began with the trigger box, based on the MB06. I've simplified the system My first print : 9h30 It works ; around 450fps Assembly for the hand guard. The fix is replaced by longer one The trigger guard is used as the original one. The breech is functionnal. There is the place for the cylinder and the hopup. The next step of the trigger box : a micro box !!! Just with one spring or rubber, it is inspired from speargun. So tiny !!! For the bbs load. The mag is one tube from an old shotgun with 5 bbs shots (Maruzshin I think). The mag is all in the boby ... External barrel and the bayonnet are printed. With paint it is pretty. More pretty with the RS part of MAS 36-51. The lever was my nightmare, impossible to arch the milled piece. The breech cap is done. Little parenthesis for the inochine period. test with the rear part of the box. It works !!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=spK6TcAiXi4...eature=youtu.beThe complete version with a new material Printing 16h23, layer 0.2, infill 30%, materail Polymax After first cleaning After 1h30 of cleaning, ajusting, sanding, assembly, here it is With the real one

Not sure how to say "WOW" in French but "Sacred Bleu!". Magnificent!

After getting a real one I thought getting an airsoft version would be pretty neat and now somebody went off and made it. Good job making another great looking airsoft gun.

The micro trigger box is finish, it is a bit longer to make it with steel. A really difficult piece to make. It is pretty but unconfortable to paly with. The spring is to hard for this shape.

This is all very interesting, and a lot of engineering put into it. Great work.
I wonder how sturdy it is and what FPS you are getting?
I was always afraid of the structural integrity for small printed parts under load and stress for airsoft mechanics.

beautiful work..magnifique!!!!....needed here for indochina..would be simple to make the CR39 stock in a printer as well if it was large enough..also..are the stock and forearm real wood from the MAS36 or did you make those as well?

I ll try to make one similar as droopaille did, but also I want to check if it can be done - lets say - with insides of ares amoeba striker..... however there is another limitation - since amoeba cylinder is 25,4mm wide....

if you have a large enough printer you could probably do it no problem....i'd like to do a MAT 49 if i can get a large enough printer...

Post by rullow on Jul 23, 2018 8:31:56 GMT -5
actually mat49 could be smaller than MAS36 stock... i ll check at home.... making a 3d printable model of MAT49 would be a matter of only few days a I guess (if you assume usage of some original or aluminuim parts as well -- eg barrell and barrell shroud...)... I ll take a look on that once I am finished with mas36 and aa52

Sooooo, here we have it: however I ll need to make it a little bit stronger - especially the two flaps connecting the stock to the receiver..... sincei ts plastic its a little bit wonky.... however I am still thinkong about the possibility of making it as an aluminoum casting... who knows - perhaps one day I ll make some photos when on place....

Once 3D printed you might think about dyna glass resin filler which would add strength and weight. Also might facilitate joining parts although you'll need some kind of connecting "rebar" of wood, solid plastic or metal.

Thanks - good tip! I was looking for this kind of information. Would you know if this would adhere well to cast resin parts?

Post by rullow on Jul 27, 2018 6:38:02 GMT -5
i think i ll just add two layers of intricate fibreglass tissue to one side of each flap- I dont need them to be way too thick or have the stock too heavy... there is still a need for putting the sling winding mechanism into the stock...

I can Imagine if you ll find any time for the drawings I ll be more than happy.. however I finshed AA52 3d files, I am about to start with 3d printed MAT49 for type3 gearbox and today I should receive the barrel assembly for your 3d printed MAS36 receiver I ve decided to have a fixed barrel glued into the receiver.... I ll show you the pictures when installed anyway - thank you

Hi, as promissed some pictures 3d files for aa52 are finished.... I ve started to work on full 3d print MAT49 with AK47 gearbox (barrel, barrel shroud and stock will be metal) printed lake tho halves of the lower body, receiver in one piece and font part of the receiver as a separate part. I preview the usage of MP40 mags and non folding mag sleeve (in order o keep enough strength in printed parts) et voila: receiver by droopaille, barell parts manufactured new..... thanks to the threads you can adjust it as you want - to get the exact length. The steel tube has been hot melted into the receiver, the other parts are screwed together.... now I miss mostly the trigger group and feeding ramp bolt handle is gonna be steel = I ll replace the original one ASAP (parts are already ordered)

Please start a totally seperate thread for the MAT 49. A bit late for WW2 I think but historically a vsry significant firearm. Certainly vsdy appropriate for Indo China/ Vietnam War.

well small 3d printed parts arrived well, and cylinders cylinder is welded together to bear the front pieces of the barrel.... now I wait for the trigger droup parts I ve ordered and I have to finish the tube magazine.... + finalize the charging handle (to weld two parts together)

chmmm... I find out some problems regarding my design of feeding.... bayonet tube has to be shortened inside the gun or manufactured brand new - I guess that I will go for manufacturing since I need 4 of them.... this in connection with other thing even pushes me more to find a way how to feed it from inside the receiver..... below some photos of the modified feeding system and here I ve got all the MAS36 project I have at home right now from top to bottom 1) my first airsoft MAS36 - has a custom cylinder and in fact doesnt shoot quite well - pehaps there is not enough air for long barrel..... this one will be cut down to MAS36CR lookalike to be borrowed to the friend and for skirmishes..... the stock will not be foldable.... and the wood will be salvaged for another rifle.... 2) droop MAS36 - almost finished - need to fix the hopup in the cylinder, replace charging handle, add the trigger group and replace the bayonet lug. Apart from that its done. 3)full steel MAS36 - its designed for adaptation of springer SVD mechanism - (the story is same for all the guns below) the cylinder is SVD - lengthened to a full length of MAS36, hopup is SVD. The bolt handle is fix on the cylinder and obly the front head and end cap are removable. The trigger group is a copy of original MAS36 system. Trigger guards are of my production - copy of an original simplified model. 4) MAS36 CR39 - 3d printed folding stock - hopefully one day replaced by an aluminium replica.... but I have firt to find someone willing to cast it 5) MAS36CR39 - will be exactly same ast the gun above - only this one will go out to some of my friends... 6) MAS36/51 - originally I wanted to make this one as a standard 36 but since I acquired the metalwork for the 51 I decided to go that way - despite the fact that 3d printed bosy is sturdy - I dont believe that it could handle well the xtra weigth of that grande launcher - it has at least 1kg..... once I am finished with those steel MASes I will continue only with 3d print..... steel body is complicated, costy and does not provide so much of the benefit.... 3d printed one can be assembled in your living room while watching the TV... and just for fun - all the MAS36 rifles I have at home at the moment the prewar one is a life one and shoots quite nicely (i have better results with it than with Kar98)

Hi and thank you Droopaille Below some pictures of the current progress... laser cut parts arrived so I can finish charging handle and trigger group. Last missinh piece will be than adapted bayonette well - unforunately I cannot use original one, since I need a hole of 14mm that goes through it.... but thats just the story of this one piece with front feed. Hopefully all the other pieces will have the feeding from inside the receiver. v
