SidePod V2

Update 02/10/25: Added Nightingale magazines as an option. Updated instructions to highlight changes to SidePod from the original Angled Talons (AT) to Straight Talons (ST) and Nigtingales (NG).

Update 12/20/24: Added custom hardware drawing (Bars and Tube). Also added a wall mount for display. Was missing the Front Piece V2 - now on as individual file and in the zip. 

Update 12/19/24: Added parts for Straight Talons! Two grips and only a few (3) other parts to convert over. Same assembly.

---------------------------------------------------

Well, when you make one thing you quickly realize that you can make it again better. This is the next step of improvements - I am sure there will be more but for the moment I am pretty pleased with SidePod V2.

V2 has kept the overall size and look with a mag-in-grip set up. This time the slide prime is gone and replaced with a pump prime - that I think ups the fun of this blaster. I have focused on Lynx size springs and they seem to be working out. I will freely admit to limited testing of other springs - if folks try other springs let me know. 

There are two options up front on the pump - one with a built in grip and one that gives you the option of choosing your own foregrip. 

The slide now draws back so you can see the chamber. Detents on it and the pump keep things in place and rattling around to a minimum.
