My son started playing SM with some old models I had lying around and some cheap eBay purchases. But Marines without grav don't really have a chance on winning. As I didn't want to spend any more money I rummaged through my bits box and found lots of the items I used for this quick and dirty proof-of-concept: 2nd edition bolters and auto-pistols.

What do you think? Any tips for improvements?

That is a cool conversion.

Looks different enough from regular bolters and distinct from Melta, Flamers and Plasma guns.
