So if you'll remember, a long time ago I posted a cocker body and said I was working on a halfblock, mini'd pump. Well.... I finally got it milled today.

From this:


To this, straight off the mill:





Mockup:


I don't have a set of files with me (those burrs are indeed very nasty) but I'm going home for spring break in a few days and should be able to finish there. I still have to cut the pump arms and drill an extra hole in the sled as well. After that, making sure it works, stripping the body, and probably sending it in for a nice anno.

Parts
-- WGP vert feed body (halfblocked, mini'd, little bit taken off the top of the feedneck, and most of the top rail milled off, a little more styling with a file will be done once I get home)
-- New Sanchez Machine Mini pump kit, dual rods
-- Dye double trigger swing frame
-- A+ halfblock sled/bolt/pin
-- Black magic valve
-- Not sure what kind of reg yet..

What do you think?

I like where you're going with it. It'll look a lot better once you get it filed down and annoed.

No plans on an anno. Initially, my only idea was to anno it school colors which are white and green. But... the pump kit I got is totally dust black as is my sled and bolt. So I'm thinking of just annoing the entire thing dust black. I'll wait until this summer when I have money to do it though, so I have to time think.

Yup.

O yeah and I forgot to mention. I got one of the new sanchez machine mini pump kits and they are totally made out of aluminum. So that means whatever color I anno the gun, I can anno the pump handle as well.

Say hello to no more black delrin pump handles or CCM acrylic colored handles!

You should anno it gloss black and keep the dust black accents. If I didn't have the Green Machine, that's the color scheme I would run with.
