How did you take apart the scope to paint it? I've been trying to take mine apart so that I could paint it along with my longstrike for a sniper cosplay, but I'm having issues with taking the end-caps off.

The secret is that I didn't ;) you just use blue painters tape to cover the lenses and then use an x-acto knife to cut carefully along the edges so when you paint it, nothing gets on the lens!

That makes a lot of sense actually.

But my problem is is that I have a yellow plastic longshot, and the scope that I am using is from that same package. Any tips to take it apart?

Unfortunately, you can't. It's seams are welded and you can't take the body apart without cutting. I don't suggest that ;)

Oh, that sucks then. I'll just see if I can use my friends blue scope.

Ya, but it's not too visible inside. I wouldn't lose sleep over it :)

Rodger that. I'll be sure to post a finished picture once I'm done painting it, and thanks for your help!

I love the longshots but they're just so daggum heavy! Can't really get a good run 'n gun, ya know?

This looks gorgeous by the way! Got a good "Halo Reach" feel.

Can you tell I liked a lot of "Aliens" type movies as a kid? ;) Thanks!
