X-Shot Excel Ejector Foregrip

Hello everyone! This is a 3D printed replacement foregrip designed to work with the X-Shot Excel Ejector Shell Blaster.  I've been having tons of fun with this blaster, but the foregrip was a little too slippery for my liking.  Plus, after I made my Replacement Stock, the foregrip no longer matched the stock.  So, I set out to design a foregrip that fit the shell of the blaster like the original that I could edit any way I wanted to,  and here are the results! 

The printed foregrip halves can be assembled onto the blaster using the three toy screws that the stock foregrip uses to attach to the blaster. The CAD files uploaded are smooth, but I found that if your slicer of choice supports fuzzy skin, you can print the parts with fuzzy skin on the outer surface, which yields a surface texture that is fairly comparable to the stock foregrip. Both parts will require support material when printed in the ideal print orientation, which in my opinion is having the outer surface facing up. 

A quick note for when you are removing the stock foregrip: in addition to the screws, there are plastic clips that hold the grip to the body of the blaster. I thought it would be easy to remove the grip while keeping the rest of the blaster assembled. but that was not the case. I was able to do it, but it was quite annoying and led to me damaging the original foregrip.  So, I would recommend fully taking the blaster apart when replacing the grips. That will give you better access to the plastic clips that need to be addressed. 

I really enjoyed working on this project, and I hope everyone else enjoys it as well!
