Airsoft Rail Extender w/ and w/o Punisher Logo

thingiverse

I drew inspiration from DNeves' design on Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1387670, but when I attempted to replicate it, I discovered that the holes in the print led to a significant increase in required supports and prolonged print times. To address this issue, I created a single, solid piece with no holes, which resulted in a substantial reduction in print time, from nearly 8 hours and 60g of filament to 3 hours and 45 minutes, with only 33g of filament needed. I designed the airsoft rail extender featuring the Punisher skull at the front because it looks cool and adds an element of interest. The skull design was taken from TheTubaGods on Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2344192/files. I also included a model without the Punisher skull for those who prefer a plain design or want to add their own logo. I modeled the part using Blender 2.8 and sliced it in Cura 4.5. The airsoft gun that this extender was printed for is the Lancer Tactical Gen 2 M4, which can be learned more about here: https://www.airsoftmegastore.com/29361-lancer-tactical-lt-15-hybrid-gen-2-m4-sd-9-airsoft-aeg-high-fps-black-lt-15cb-g2-e?iid=32336&search=lancer%20tactical%20gen%202 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJuwJ4ZfHPk&t=610s.
