The first thing I decided to do was to create an in-gun flashlight and laser sight. I would place 3 white LEDs and a modified dollar store laser into the front panel of the gun, where there was just enough clearance for them. It is a pretty tight spot to work in but I managed to make it work. I drilled the holes and they all fit perfectly. Next, I soldered the LEDs together in parallel and then to a wire. The dollar store laser was a little difficult to extract.... To get to the PCB I had to literally destroy the thin metal case for it. After unsoldering the battery spring and pushbutton and soldering positive and negative leads to it I installed both the laser and the LED.
I'm far from done... The is still the power supply system as well as the power switches for both the laser and the flashlight. Not to mention I still have to design and make the ammo capacity display. But in the pictures attached you will find my progress so far.
