I know many people have recommended finding a bunch of Aegis defense lines and using the autocannons they have, but I find that they are hard to come by for less than retail. To this end, I have tried to come up with an easy conversion for creating TL autocannons for my dreads. I have created a fairly passable arm using IG heavy weapons team autocannons. I have put together a little tutorial on my blog found here: Gone to Ground

Check it out and leave some feedback. I would love to hear what people think. Thanks!

Finally, a good dakka pred arm.

I cringe everytime I see people using the quad guns from the aegis line box.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the positive feedback. It truly is amazing what one can do with a bit of ingenuity in this hobby.

Nice zao77s, I went the aegis line route on my single rifleman, but if I were going to do multiples... your route is much more efficient and looks quite nice to boot!
