Nice Job. Looks really Clean.
Although can I use a regular Laknock?
If not, where do I get Laknock II? -

I tried to use them but its automatic part hasn't as easy connection with G3 barrel as Laknock II's.QUOTE (Nation @ Oct 20 2009, 12:44 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>If not, where do I get Laknock II?
I have never been to USA so I don't know... I also don't know how you can get it by post. -

I searched for a long time how to connect them and I finally made it using a lot of different pens but I don't think it's worthy to post the tutorial for this. Of course, you can try.. -

The tutorial was modified to look like it should be.
Admins plz say if it can be approved.
spinneraddiction, it's easy enough for everyone, but a bit time consuming to make =) -
Date: Fri, Dec 11 2009 20:54:28
I agree. This mod is very well made and definitely needs to be approved.

Okay, I've already realised that you (admins) don't want to approve this tutorial. So I have a few questions:
1) Why? In spite of the fact that there's nobody requested it (I registered myself in this forum just to post the tutorial), I think this tutorial is well made and mod is deserving to be in the list of the best.
2) Are there any better ways to make G3 MX, Overground mod, G3-M and other G3 mods to be retractable? I haven't found the G3 mod with identical way of retracting. Of course you can use other ways, such as using Laknock Fine instead of Laknock II (it has completely different retractable part) or make it twistable just like in Kuma's way, but isn't there every tutorial intended to help people make the mod in the way of its creator? I also want to draw your attention that there's no negative posts against it. -

MODS GET HERE NAO! APPROVE ALREADY!

There's mine and my friend's retractable mods with automatic part made just like in this tutorial. So, you still believe that there's no need of the approval? -
Date: Sun, Feb 28 2010 00:00:52
nah, it's just mods ARE LAZY!
