Yet still with no Impulses...

Anyway, I think I made out like a bandit on this one. Here's the eye candy!



AKA P-block VLM 'cocker
- Full AKA internals
- AKA Lightning Bolt
- AKA pump arm
- KAPP cocking rod
- Benchmark slider
- KAPP trigger w/ shoe
- KAPP aluminum panels
- WGP Ergo HPR
- ANS HPR
- Custom Products flame drop (I know, I know...)
- WGP on/off ASA
- KAPP LPR
- AKA Mitey Max low pressure chamber
- Shocktech (looks like it) Bomb 3-way
- WGP (looks like it) ram

Guess how much I paid for it?

.

.

.

.

.

Wait for it....

.

.

.

.

.

$166 shipped!!! (!)

Very nice.  I've got a 2k3 WGP with that same color.

Gawd I hate flame drops, though.

It is quite green. I think I like it because that's the FIRST thing that pops out at you. :)

On that note, to people that assume this is just another WGP, nope! This is AKA, and had nothing to do with WGP. They didn't even use WGP body blanks. This is about as top-of-the-line in the mech 'cocker world as you can get, and JUST south of the Merlin (the Mitey Max volume chamber makes up for that though). That, and there are some VERY nice parts on this marker. This thing should be butter.

I love mech-single trigger 'cockers.

Don't see them around much these days.

I've never actually used a slider before (on a semi). This should be a learning experience. I grew up on hinges...

Speaking of which, you guys should see my Ripper now!

Hoooooooooly crap this thing is so nice. Feels WAY different from a hinge. I short-stroked like crazy...

I'm gonna need to time this thing way tighter, but it's still very nice. Could use a roller sear and a polish job.

Pretty nice, and green.


Very green.

Dude, I freaking love the green. What's the first thing you notice when you see this marker? "Holy crap, that's green!" I want to replace the old chrome with new chrome, and have all the greens ano'd to match.

 

NO GAWD DANG PUMP KITS!!! Why does everyone insist on throwing a pump kit on every 'cocker they see? Yeesh...

^^^ I dun gettit...

On that note, the flame drop is just so freaking tacky, it works. Honestly, the marker would be out some character if I decided to ditch the drop! At least, until I get it cleaned up!

Future plans (which means they probably won't happen): Better regs, reanodizing, replaced chrome, trigger work.
