HK416 (SRC)

SRC HK416
Started life as the fixed stocked carbine version with the 14.5" barrel. I really wanted a 417 but I couldn't afford it.


Early playing around with options and a bipod from my L96

 As it had the fixed stock it was already rear wired.  Which meant a trip down to a mate and swapped the fixed stock for an M4 stock tube and he threw in a sling adapter as well.  A trip to Redwolf UK added a Dark Earth stock and a cheapo SEAL suppressor.  


Magpul AFG2 and Clone EOTech 552 came from Wolf Armouries and I changed the suppressor to something a bit longer. Also played around with taking a cheap stock off a Bulldog 500 as representation of the HK one.  The Barrel was swapped out for a madbul tightbore only for the reason it was the only one which would fit the barrel when I dropped it down to a 10.5" version by removing the barrel extension.  Flash eliminator is in the spares box somewhere and the suppressor screws directly on.




A set of RIS ladder covers from Swindon Airsoft were picked up at the British Shooting Expo and a short stubby foregrip from Airsoftworld replaced the AFG2.  I also managed to get hold of an SRC 416 10.5" front site from Justbbguns.  It was still a bit chunky.  And finally a set of flip up sights from China via Amazon replaced the HK front and rear sights.





PEQ box from Proairsoft supplies was picked up at the March 2014 Ai500 event at Anzio Camp (not shown in the photo above at Spartan Airsoft as they have a laser restriction due to the proximity of Bristol Airport)
