hmmm... a mystery marker

I think it's an EGP Pump. Definately the same frame. The pump itself looks modded.

Yeah, the pump arm looks like it's got foam rubber around it.

Hold on there. Look closer. It's very similar but, the EGP is an "underarm" (under-barrel) cocking gun, and the pump arm on the mystery gun is on the left side of the body.

Unfortunately, Vintagerex.com is having server issues (so many of the pics are no longer showing) so, I can't get any more specific other than to say that it's a Nelson based pump.

Take a look at what we know:

Back-Bottle / ASA mount.
Right-hand feed.
Dovetail is not raised and nearly covers the distance between the ASA and the Bolt slot (like my Bushmaster)
Rear frame screw inserts from the bottom (unlike my Bushmaster)

What we don't know:

In this photo, is the gun cocked (and the brass we see in the body is the hammer), or is that a brass power tube the goes all the way forward to the bolt?
Is this gun a single, or dual-arm pump?
Is the barrel removable?
Is the ASA is threaded downwards, or straight back?

Good luck

i like that pump...

Hey, i'm styro. too lazy to log into my account so i'm going to use my friend's...

upon further questioning, we found out:

1. the barrel is removable

2. it has some custom parts on it (cocking arms and pump are definately aftermarket). I thought it might have been customized to opperate like a nelson based marker, like a carter, but i could be wrong. Also, the trigger frame is painted.

3. i noticed it shares some striking resemblances to a phantom. when you compare this to the base-line phantom, it looks like the parts might be interchangable.

also, if we do buy it, we're naming it either: The Pharter or The Cantom.. seeing as it looks like a splice between a carter and a phantom.. get it?

Then I was right, it is a hybrid EGP. That was my second guess, if it wasn't stock. If you look at the pic, the EGP has a similar pumping system to the Phantom.

Oh, you might want to change your friend's sig. It's got some wording in there the mods might not like...

It could be a diablo body, with traccer internals.

What led me to my assumption is the fact that of all the M16 style grips, I haven't seen that particular one on another gun. You can't just look at the grip shape, you have to look at frame curves, printing, angles, and materials.

Also, another possibility is the guy selling it bought it broken for a steal and repaired it himself. Perhaps he didn't have the proper parts for the undercocking style, and since parts for old guns are hard to get, he just rebuilt at home.

the m16 grip comes off of the lower frame (the housing for the sear and trigger) you are right however about the lowers looking the same.

He never said it was one. He said it looked like one.
