Ever since I heard about the wiimote's camera based aiming system I thought "wow that would make an epic pistol" and since it came out I had not seen anything that looked like it could still stand up to the abuse of playing and also looked like a convincing pistol.
I believe anyone could build this mod given some decent tools and softer/thinner aluminum. The aluminum I had wasn't really ideal as it was made to be machined and thus was extremely hard. This made cutting it on my cheap as hell bandsaw rather tedious.
I started with a template of a colt .45 and traced it out on one of my slabs of 1/2inch aluminum.
After about an hour of cutting I had this.

That looks horrible :lol: way too much work to maintain *looks to black-sprayed guns on the market*.

It doesn't look great, but it's pretty cool how creative these people can be to come up with this stuff.

Yea, way to much work unless you were to buy a separate remote for the sole purpose of a gun. Why not just spray paint the Nyko Perfect Shot?
