My Steampunk inspired cocker is allllmost done. The side panels still need engraved, and I still want to do some type of barrel-tip front sight.







This thing started out as a stock 97 autococker.

Custom parts: ASA block, Bolt, Bolt pin, Cocking rod, Ball detent, Beavertail, Back block, Front block screw, Velocity adjuster, Hammer.

Third-party parts: Benchmark frame,  Roller sear & Trigger, Rocket Valve, Thunderpig barrel.


As a comparison, heres how it started, right after I bought it from Kiolia

Is this the same marker you were working on about 2 years ago when I last left the forums Shenk? Or have you finished that one and started a new project?

It's ok.  Still not liking the thin gauge brass panel on the side and the grips have to go.  Easy fix but the grips are destroying the look that I think you're going for.

The brass side panels are definately there to stay. The idea is one side will say "The Auto-Clocker", and the other "Shenko Heavy Industries".

The grips are going to be replaced with wood panel grips with leather inlays, and Shenko logos in brass. Ive been working on the machining lately.

You should add 'Tech' after Industries.

Just to clarify I like the idea of the panel and screws.  I'm just thinking that something like 3/32 thickness would be better. 

I'm still thinking flip-up sites would be cool on that gun.  Call Williams Gun Site if you can't find what you're looking for.  They manufacture alot of aperature sight's etc.

Something like this

Looks cool Shenk, though I think some wood panel grips would really polish the steampunk theme.

Cut some wood grips. Still to go on the grips hopefully inset a Shenko logo in the sides.
