You need two things to build this.

An ACM VSR-10.

A leatherman.

I, seriously, did all the work with a pocket tool.

First, measure where you want the outer barrel to end. I made it a m102404's thumb width (about an inch) past the stock.

Then disassemble the gun, and don't let your drunk friends wrestle with others on the table, it makes the screws hard to keep track of.

I then cut the outer barrel with the physical help of Santa, and a pocket tool from Eeyore. Did I mention you should be drinking while doing this?

After this is done, and probably the next day when you've finished drinking and rehydrated, file down the outer barrel threaded cap to slide into the outer barrel (the one still attached to the stock). Then glue it in place and spray paint it to cover all of your tool marks from beating it with a leatherman.

Next, reinstall it loosely onto the gun to find out where to cut the inner barrel, mark it with a sharpie.

Then, disassemble the hop up, and take the inner barrel to a solid desk, and cut it with a leatherman. This takes a long fucking time.

Once done (congrats!), crown it using a very sharp knife on the leatherman, and file the outside a bit to make it look pro.

Reinstall.

(I took this time to disassemble the china gun and re-lube it)

Put this all back together, notice that you hate the sling loops, try to knock out the pins with a small screwdriver bit on the leather man, figure it's quicker to just cut them off. Then file it down to make it smooth.

EDIT: I haven't chronied it, but the cardboard says it's probably cqb friendlyish.

EDIT UPDATE: It shoots 370 on 0.20's... Guess I have to lower the spring a little...

EDIT PICS:

Thanks to coachster for the pics. This was after more than a couple beers, and about half way through the outer barrel.
