Well folks. You know what this means. I thought I'd go out with a bang, no pun intended. This to me, is my stepping stone to new things. Things, that I need to concentrate on. So, this is my final goodbye. The last any of you will see or hear from me. And, I know its a sad day. But chin up, I am sure there are people who can easily fill the space I left behind. And I was told I was an inspirational figure. Well, then that's my legacy.
Jake-SPW- Friend, considered brother, acquaintance or even some peoples enemy. I've seen this group through so much. Seen its peak (of when I was here), seen its darkest times, and seen it through its amazing growth. From 250 members to 1800 and counting. Wow, what a marvelous sight.
Duke, Mayo, Beck, Stirling, HStrang, Robbe, Simeon, Woitek, Worlock, Ribbitz, Garde and Zorg. While some of us never spoke. And others on a mostly daily basis. You were all friends, mentors and great people. Teaching all, keeping peace and watching over us. Other notable members that I have come to befriend:
RyanR.Warner: He was the one who basically gave me a hand from day one. He was an innovative builder. And a very friendly person.
Anamirian: She became such a great friend to me, we've seen each other through good and bad times. And tbh, I consider her family.
Skye: To me, she was/ is the mother of PMG Flickr. And a great friend, we've shared many laughs and stories.
Malachi: He is another person I consider a mentor, and I befriended him very early on. We may not have talked all that much recently, but friends nonetheless.
Kieran: Mah bro, my wingman. tbh, I don't remember one convo where I haven't laughed. He is a very funny guy, and a great builder, and most important of all. A great friend.
Latchee: I remember all those tinychat convos we had, while they might be abundant, they were truly funny, and great times. He is probably the most inventive builder out there.
Woitek: Amy. I've known her for quite some time, almost a year, and seen her rise to the top. And she deserves that light. She is a great friend, mentor, builder.
Beck. At first we didn't talk much, or at all, but in the past few months, we started talking. He's my bro, He has been a spectacular mod. And was there since the founding of SPW, the greatest PMG company to date. And I am proud to have been apart of it.
Kevin: The Father of Sweetwater. The forfront of skill. One of the gods of PMG. We almost never talked, but still, he was/ is an awesome guy.
Wiikling. Another god of PMG. His designs are revolutionary. And is a mentor to most.
I am sorry if I didn't mention those who should have. But just know, that all of you are great people, fun to talk to, fun to debate with. And fun sharing ideas with. And, even though I have had my bad times, and good times, it was the greatest almost 2 years of my life.
And now, this legend lives on in the memory of those to rise to greatness.
PMG'ers never die, nor are they forgotten. They live on in the spirits of their successors.
To all those who read this, or take the time to. I thank you. I hope my words carry on, and maybe send a message, or teach a moral.

I got inspired by Shockwave's next build and is last build and this is what I cam up with. I started with the grip area, and the curved connection from the pistol grip to the stock and went from there. I borrowed the receiver from my MSRX338 Remedy build but rechambered to .308.. I think it turned out ok. Some parts might not be the best because I'm not feeling to well and my back is killing me so I just wanted to get this done. There is no scope or sights because its basically what you would see at a convention.

Well, after a few months of no builds, I finally got around to making something. And I am damn proud of it. Thanks to several people for all their input which definitely made this rifle so much better. Clearly inspired by the STA-52 assault rifle from Killzone 2, and Dethklaus' STA-52 based shotgun.

Variations of the JS-68 machine pistol.
TOP - JS-68Z
Tactical PDW chassis for the JS-68. Features an experimental anti-shielding EM beam for use against conventional kinetic shields, and a wire stock for firing control.
BOTTOM - JS-68W
Suppressor barrel for the JS-68. This model features a shortened 19 round magazine.
Clearly inspired by the Halo AR, specifically the Halo 4 model MA5D. The only thing that is a replica from the MA5D is the ammo counter/ barrel shroud the rest is well my own design. Basically a bullpup ACR with Halo AR inspired bits. Since I did remake the barrel shroud/ ammo counter exactly as it is with the Halo 4 MA5D I will most likely remake that as well.
Huge thanks to Shockwave for getting me a hires picture.
Shockwave for the charging handle.
If anyone wants the code just ask.
I figured if I bought a Satriani guitar I could play more like him :) Not really but it's a slick machine regardless.
6.8x37mm select fire machine pistol.
A machine pistol developed by Kong Development Bureau, notorious for "borrowing" popular firearm designs. The JS-68 is based off the Shanxi Type-18 machine pistol, which was a cancelled copy of the Mauser M712, a magazine-fed deriative of the popular Mauser C96. It also borrows the distinctive jointed bolt of the Luger P08.
The .45 cal ACP round that the Type-18 fired was inadequate against modern body armor, so the Kong Bureau started work on an experimental tungsten piercer round, very similar to 6.5x25mm CBJ round that the Saab-Bofors CBJ-MS fires. The new 6.8x37mm round is a modification of the 6.8mm Remington SPC, with a newer, high pressure load to compensate for the slightly shorter casing and round.
The barrel has also been redesigned to accomandate a gas piston and barrel shroud, important for continuous fire, and the newly designed casket magazine can hold 45 rounds, also important for its voracious fire rate of 1200 RPM. The magazine also doubles as a grip, ideal for weapon control.
All in, the JS-68 has assault rifle grade firepower, all packed in a concealable package. As such, it has become popular with military officers, PMC, special forces, and bandits.
A new build after almost another year hiatus. Inspired by a rifle I made in MGSV The Phantom Pain.

Further Improvements were made to the M612. Brought back the bar that wrapped around the tube magazine and barrel. Better quality materials, larger loading bay and ejection port to accommodate various size 12 gauge shells. Added more rails for various accessories. More tactical look with more ergonomic feel. Hold 5+1 3" 12 gauge shotshells. Adjustable cheek rest.

Sorry for the lack of builds, I just have a lot going on in my life that I need to sort out and deal with so yeah. When/ if I feel like building I'll try my best to produce something of quality, hopefully equal to if not better than what you all have known me for.
