Well I was looking around a few forums and I found something that really caught my eye. Well 2 and a half weeks later (Jeez I hate customs) I came home and there it was. Well it is my first pump and even though I have only shot 9 shots through it (I found a partially full 10 round tube under my bed) I love the thing and I really have some great plans for it. Yes it is in very rough condition but it shoots like a dream. And for $30 how can you go wrong so well here it is I hope you guys like it as much as I do.

Well I also have a few questions

Well how do I adjust the velocity on it lol

And what is the compartment in the grip for.

Well thanks for the time and please leave comments. Remember it will not look like this for long but it is still a nice peice of history.

There is an allen key screw in the bolt to adjust velo. The hole in the grip is for a barrel plug.

I thought about getting an SL-68.  I ended up trading my Spyder (backup gun) for a SL custom painted and modded.

It's not my lamp I was in my moms office because that is where my camera was.

As for the guy that said he would give me 15 bucks for it. I think I'll pass but I'll keep you in mind.  

As for the people who answered my ?'s thanks alot. And thats a really good Idea with the barrel plug holder I wish the guns we rent out at the field I ref at had those.

Thanks for the comments keep em comin

K i have one more quick question,

Is the SL 68 annodized or painted, I am trying to strip the old paint off it but it isn't coming off at all. SO far I have used coarse steel wool and it hasn't done anything. So what would you guys suggest? I really want to give it a new paintjob but I wanna try to get the old black off it first

You don't need to get the paint completely off. You can just rough it up with some sandpaper, and put some primer on and you should be good.

The hole in the underside of the main grip is for the barrel plug, the slot in the slot in the underside of the foregrip is for the cable squeegee.

Oh how I wish I had a hopper adapter for my SL-68, and a new barrel for it, instead I have to find 10 round tubes in my old old old gear bag and make a ball detent since the previous owner of my SL felt the need to sand paper the inside of my barrel.

Actually, the hole in the main grip is just a carryover from it's heritage of being a grip designed for the M-16, and it predates the existance of the Barrel Plug.  I have the same grip on my Line S.I. Bushmaster.  It's entirely coincidental that a barrel plug can fit in there.
