DC-17 clone wars blaster pistol BattleFront 2

DC-17 in several parts, upper and lower sections slide together nicely and have holes allocated for a 6-32 set screw to hold them together. There's a for-end brace I had to print as a separate part, otherwise it printed with supports that were impossible to remove. The knurled end cap slides into the back of the upper, It might take some sanding to remove the supports and layer lines to allow it to fit. The magazine plate has a hole in it to tap an 8-32x1/2 or shorter countersunk machine screw to allow it to be easily removed if that is desired. It is also friction fit so you could just fill the hole with bondo when you prep to paint or using something simple like tinkerCAD to fill it in before you print if you don't plan on taking it on and off, I thought it would be useful for a battery compartment because I plan on adding an electronic setup. The trigger v2 has a slightly above 3mm hole to use a 3mm wood dowel because I find printing small pins doesn't work so well. Trigger v1 should work with the provided trigger pin if you don't want to use a wood dowel. Trigger brace solid is installed in the slot right behind the trigger, trigger brace v2 is installed in the slot further aft. Trigger brace solid is there to act as a stop for the trigger, the other is to wrap an elastic band around to provide spring tension on the trigger I used a 1inch diameter band. The model includes quite a bit of minor detail that didn't come out super well in my own prints. It did come out well enough to be able to go over it all with a dremel or soldering iron to bring the details back out. This issue should be specific to the v9 lower, I have since removed it and added v10 that seeks to solve this. It might be worth noting the parts are in the orientation that builds the model within fusion, you may need to adjust the orientation for optimal printing, I have been printing the lower upside down for example. This was the first thing I really designed in CAD so it was all a learning process but I'm quite happy with the results and hope to do more soon. Hope you all enjoy! Update: added magazine v3 and removed magazine v2. Magazine v3 has a better hole to accept a commonly available #8 machine screw Update: added a new threaded barrel, it is an M22x3 thread with some loosened tolerances to allow for 3D printing. I made this for the suppressor mod made by OofOof https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4384104 I also made a threaded rear cap for the suppressor, I tried uploading that as a remix to OofOof's model but had difficulty with it so I just added it to this Update: learned some more about modeling for 3D printing, added some champers to upper v7 to hopefully cut down on the amount of supports you need to rip out. If you set your slicer to require more than 45degrees before it generates supports you should have a lot less
