i purchased an SL-68 II a few months back and decided to modify it a bit, first i hated the ASA "bump" right where your hand needed to be so i rerouted the air system into the handle and milled and filled the old one and made a chain drop. then the stock pump forearm looked a bit plain so i made a new one. lastly i hated the dinky feed neck so i sawed off the original and welded a larger one in it's place, then....paint and now i have what you see here. let me know what you think!

i also machined a CMI barrel to fit it but was too ashamed to post pics with it on it

Wow!

Thats awesome.

You know that sight block can be milled off too? You just have to replace that air line plug in the top.

i thought about it and may still do it, it would look better if the top of it went straight across, thanks for the suggestion.

That is friggin HOT. How did you smooth it out so good my SL-68 has lots of holes and roughness to it like a cast iron skillet.

It looks like a mix between a disintegrator pistol and a death ray gun--which is a good thing!

Sweet. Nice job on the drop. I always wanted to see a motorcycle chain as a drop.

Heres an idea... take a staple gun, and use it on your face...

Anyways, that gun rules, nicely done.

Man that is awesome. Those colors look so awesome together and I am sure it turns heads like crazy out at the field.

Does anyone know a place in Canada where I can buy an SL 68 II I have looked on ebay but everyone who has one won't ship to Canada.

Even if I'm not too keen on the looks of the chain drop, that is a great idea, carried out expertly. Nice job on the feedneck, and the paint is pretty cool too.

Three cheers for true customs!

nice work man. the way the pump arms milled it has a "sheridan" look to it. for the sight rail you could try holes through it or windows through it. that may look good as well. something to look at before you take it off.

i have seen them before with slots cut into them wich i liked alot, if i don't mill it completly off i will cut slots.......probably just use it for a while before i do any of it though.

thanks for the comments and suggestions, i love making customs and it's nice knowing you guys like them too! thanks again.

Hmm thats pretty cool, but I'd paint the pump handle green. Also Id think it would look better with a silver barrel and silver drop, but thats me. Other wise it looks good.
