UKP v3 https://www.instructables.com/id/UKP-v3/

A project I've been working on "on and off" this initially started off as my Desert Eagle project back in august of last year (forum topic was removed). From time to time I would change a part here, add something there and eventually came to what you see now. Any suggestions are welcome, and don't hesitate to be critical. 

Features: 
- NEW (at least I think it is) removable magazine system (more in depth below)
- Iron sights
- trigger guard

Stats:
- 5 round standard clip or 3 round quick clip (a quick clip can be loaded in around 1.5 seconds)
- 20-40ft range
- relatively compact 

Cons:
- last round occasionally jams
- small mag capacity

The magazine:
- the magazine uses an angled pistol handle sort of like the one seen on the TDS. This angle is slightly greater than the TDS's angle do to a different placement of rods. This increased angle allows for the acceptance of GD1 mags that lock into the handle of the pistol via small cracks in the handle.
