Halo Reach M45 Tactical Shotgun

Halo Reach M45 Tactical Shotgun

The UNSCDF used the M45 Tactical Shotgun from the time of the Insurrection to the Fall of Reach and beyond.

This moc, aside from some glue used in very weak points, is LEGO only. The shotgun have always been my favorite gun in the Halo games, so it was about time I made my own LEGO version.
Weight: appx. 5.0 lb (appx. 2.27 kg)
Length: 38" (96.5 cm)
Working features include: trigger, sliding pump, loadable LEGO shotgun shells, shell ejection system

    Superb. The shell ejection system is just the icing on the cake.

    When people hate on Lego, I refer them to your photostream.

    Come on, Nick, smile in your photos for once. ;-)

    Excellent work, I never dreamed of seeing a working shell ejection in lego.

    Amazing!

    Though for some reason the video won't load for me.

    It links to the high quality version. Switch from 1080p to 360p maybe.

    Thanks all! I'm really proud of this moc.

    The setting weren't available to me at first but for some reason turning on then off 3-D made it work :3

    I was afraid of having to play tech support with you. /sighofrelief

    I love this thing, being a shotty fan as well. This replica is the most accurate one you've made so far!

    Amazing as with all of your work.

    Not a big shotgun fan myself though (sniper for long range, flame thrower or some sort of quick firing gun for short range, and for everything else there's tanks)

  25. Ewok in Disguise (14 months ago | reply)

    This looks amazing! I'm very impressed that you've been able to pull off so much crazy SNOT and put so much intricate detail into this while keeping it chunky and functional. You keep raising the bar with every model you post.

    Been there, done that, wasn't so good.

    And this is amazing. All your work paid off.

    If I could build half as good as this.....

    Alright, now your next project is to make a Sp'laser.

    How fragile is this beauty?

    I was afraid of that question. After about 25 shotgun pumps it needs some interior repairs. Other than that, no problems with structure.

    Nope, next is the halo 4 rocket pistol.

  39. Nemowerty (14 months ago | reply)

    Now make the shotgun in Resident Evil :3

  40. HaloJunkie (14 months ago | reply)

    Because of you, i'm on a favorite spree. :3
