"Dragon Lady"
"Dragon Lady" was a project that I kicked off in order to get the most range out of a blaster that I could while still retaining durability. The base blaster is a Caliburn rev.3.3 printed completely in PETG with some custom S.H.I.B.A parts installed. Among these custom parts include a linear bearing pump along with a custom aluminum rear reinforcement plate. The threaded rods have all been swapped out for single piece threaded rods that run the entire length of the blaster to eliminate any flex and spread out the stress of firing along all of the prints that interface said rods. The internals are all machined with the trigger and sear being in aluminum, the plunger and rambase in acetyl along with an Alumilan coupler. Powering this beauty is a K14 spring paired with a 24" 0.509 ID aluminum barrel and Ammo-Counter SCAR. The aesthetic bits that went into this build include a dragon Rmax shroud, Caliburn rail riser, KD handguard and an AWP stock filler. The non-printed components include an angled foregrip, barrel mounted bipod and a variable-zoom ELCAN Spectre with a top mounted RDS.
This rendition of the Caliburn hits an average of 380FPS using Worker Gen2s and has a 10" dispersion at 50m, making ridiculously powerful and deadly accurate. The prime is pretty hefty, but nothing that the average human can't prime thanks to the smoothness provided by the linear bearing pump. The overall purpose of this blaster is to provide fire support from the very back of any playing field as the long barrel makes it difficult to maneuver quickly around tight corners. While the barrel could be swapped out for a brass lined barrel, I plan to keep this build using the aluminum one since it is more reliable and durable. Overall, I would say that project "Dragon Lady" was a smashing success relative to the requirements I had for a long range blaster.
