Aliens M41A Pulse Rifle

You'll have to excuse the part names, I didn't know the correct technical term for most of them…I made this model as the others available online weren't all split by color and were over complicated in the number of parts (some containig 50+ parts). I've managed to get this model down to just 17 parts whilst still maintaining a high level of detail.I have split the parts by color for those who wish to print this from colored filament like myself. I have cut out holes in some areas of the model where a 5mm M3 Hex screw (You'll need 26 of these) can be inserted for realistic effect, you can make your own if you don't have any on hand. I also made the mag removable with 4 slots for some 6mm x 3mm N45 magnets to be inserted (Not essential).Rifle is full scale with a length is 695mm. I've also included the files for two orange caps to go on the ends of the barrels.UPDATE (04/10/23)Rifle under barrel updated with a stopper to prevent the pump sliding off.Updated version of the “Top Rail” has been REMOVED as there was an error with the STL after running a test print. If you have already printed this you may need to do some sanding down on the blaster breach to get it to fit. I'll have an updated model soon…UPDATE (05/10/23)The under barrel now has a stopper on the end (as it should) to prevent the pump just falling straight off. I recommend splitting this in half and printing as two pieces. Put the pump in place before gluing the two together and use the pump as a guidance to make sure everything lines up.The top rail has been split into two files for easier printing and assembly. Some of the angles and fillets have been increased so that less support will be needed. I have added some further details and also cut out some holes on each end so that they can be lined up by using some filament as inserts when gluing together. MAKE SURE YOU INSERT THE BREACH BEFORE GLUING THE TWO RAIL PARTS TOGETHER.The mag/clip has been reduced in size for a better fit.The rifle breach has been adjusted to fit the new rail design.Everything has been test printed and fits together with no issues.#The original files have been removed to avoid confusion.
