Thumbs up KJW M9A1 copy of the SocomGear SOF Desert Combat Pistol

Hey all, I'm really quite excited with how this turned out. After about 3 hours of disassembly and losing a few springs, then finding springs, then reassembly - oh, and painting quite a few coats - I've finally finished my conversion project on my KJW M9A1 to copy the appearance of the SocomGear SOF M9A1. Tell me what you guys think!

I've included a picture of the actual SOF M9A1, then the other crappy quality pics are quickies that I took after I put everything back together on mine. Again, sorry about the quality.

*note* - the color is actually Krylon Fusion "Sand", although it looks white due to the camera and lighting quality. More pics of this and my M4 project to come! (soon I hope )

Nice job man. It's hard to see details considering the picture quality but from what I can see it looks good.

Edit: Id like to see an image that is more true to color because my brother is thinking of doing something similar with his USP. How's the Krylon paint look compared to the SOCOM version?

The Krylon is a little bit lighter compared to that screenshot of the SOCOM. It's almost a cream/khaki blend. I'll try to get some high def pictures up tomorrow in place of these crap ones. Glad you like it though

**EDIT** I lied - it's exact lol. I had to take a second look at the SOCOM picture again. It's dead on.
