Han Solo DL-44 Heavy Blaster build thread

So here's a project I've been wanting to build for awhile, Han Solo's Blastech DL-44 Heavy Blaster. With the new movie came a perfect opportunity, the prop masters used an HFC M712 as a base for the gun, as opposed to a real C96 mauser as in the original movies. So now it's possible to build a "screen correct" Solo blaster.

The WE one coming down the pipes is shit, THIS is gonna be done right.

So here is what I'm going after;



And here is where I am right now;



Stripped HFC M712; I know not very far along but ya gotta start somewhere.

Build components;

HFC M712 Mauser
HFC M712 short magazine
DEA "TFA DL-44 Kit" http://darkenergycreations.com/dl44tfakit.aspx
USB sound card http://www.ebay.com/itm/172002234399
Speakers http://www.ebay.com/itm/251456282048
CR123 holder http://www.ebay.com/itm/181790677824
Push button http://www.ebay.com/itm/251463670010

You'll notice from the build components listed, I'm planning on outfitting this blaster with sound effects, speakers etc in the grip. We'll see if I can pull it off. Just waiting for parts to start showing up.
