Mmmmmmmmm 'Cocker..... Here they are 100% complete pics, now in 7megapixels, please forgive my composition skills.



:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ::::::::::::::::::
Update 1/05: So i gotta quit doing this, im turning into DeTrevni, just bought a full E1 setup (black), brand new Tickler (black), WWA bolt (black), and pneu hose (black) for it.
i could have gotten away with not
buying some of the new parts, but that would have meant decommissioning
one of my other cockers and i just couldnt bring myself to do that
Grand total including body: $358 so much for the DM9 i was saving for
I have barrels, HPRs, a ram, and an ASA just laying around so i didnt feel the need to buy those and they too are all black. haha
this will be my only ALL black gun, havent had one of those since the A-5 got painted yellow.
this will also make my 3rd electronic cocker (2 E1s and 1 E2), bringing me to a total of 4 cockers.
more pictures to come when it's all assembled
Update 1/06: I guess i can go ahead and list the full specs it will have:
Obviously its a Half-Blocked Karnivor WWA JCM Sled, Bolt, and Hammer Madmann Blue (medium) Spring Kit Warrior Clamping Feedneck AKA pump arm WGP Powervalve E2 v1.10 Orracle Tickler LPR WGP MP4 CP Shorty w/ gauge ports plugged (for added volume) CP Dovetail Rail Hybrid ON/OFF ASA (knob)
Update 1/07: Apparently its going to have a matching 14" Kaner too. I won one earlier this morning, thought hey! i'll put 20$ on that, and well... i got it for $15! heck yeah!
Update 1/08: Body and Pneu Hose came in today. WOW the body is beautiful, better than the picture. Only a few small scratches. Its short a valve (which i have a spare ), jam nut, and valve guide nut. More money to spend! W0o0o!
Update 1/09: E1 Frame and WWA JCM Bolt came in today. I swapped the E2 on the Orracle and put it on this. Used a WGP Powervalve i had over the RAT 3:16 because it fit better and is actually higher flow. Put the MP4 on it and E2 frame as well as the Nickel CP reg from one of the other guns. It looks nice with the HPR being nickel and the rest black, but this is only temporary until i can get a black one. I'm just waiting on the Tickler LPR to arrive so i can put it on and get it hosed up so i can use it sunday. Pics of current progress will be up later today.
Update 1/10: LPR and the Kaner came in today. This is the later generation Kaner with the 7" long back. It gorgeous and looks even better on the gun. Put the LPR on and got her hosed up. Made a better pin retension for the bolt. Gased her up. She shoots flawlessly. No leaks, thanks to my superior non-leakifying skills. She's now 100% ready to rock your face off. Going to take her put tomorrow to do just that.
Update 1/11: played with her today and she shot beautifully.
had the cash on
me so bought a brand new dust black CP reg. now normally these things
are pretty inconsistent until it seats properly after a few thousand
rounds.
well i threw that beast on the karni, took her to the
chrono got it up to 285 and pulled off a few shots, it went a little
something like this:
285, 285, 285, 284, 285, 286, 285.
I
was so happy, not only because of the consistency, but as with most
cockers she's very accurate with the .689 14" Kaner i have on her.
good day indeed.

if you mean its needs refreshing, i think it looks just fine.
if you mean completely new color/scheme, then i have to agree.
Suggestions? Im thinking Pewter(dark gray) on the smooth sections and Blue on the scales.

Meh, I'm not a fan of half-block Karnies. I much prefer full-bodied ones, but I guess that goes for most 'Cockers for me.
I'd definitly go with black parts, and if you go to get it anno'd a two tone dust/gloss variation looks great with the scales, be it with two different colors or the same with the dust/gloss variation.

Ugh. Another halfed Karni. Ruins the looks, IMO. But hey, if you like it. I certainly won't be one to talk down to a nice 'cocker!
PS: Black pneus. Good luck with it!

Now see, i've just always wanted a half-blocked cocker, and i found this Karni and had to go for it. This one isnt cut quite how i would like, but its the only one i could find.
if i coulda found a Mid-blocked Karni like the pumps Jeff released i woulda gone for that, but i didnt see any that werent ridiculously priced.

I should've told you that I have a buttload of pneu hose around here.
But for future reference, keep me in mind. I have a couple hundred feet I gotta get rid of.

Looks really good, ctc. I'm not a fan of the nickel reg though. Kills it, I think.

You'll be happy to know that its temporary, until i can get a matte black one. gonna be a while. It's only on there now because its the best regulator a have between the cockers, i was NOT putting that ugly ion reg i have on this beautiful gun.

Good to hear then. I thought you had better taste than that. Where'd you find the steal on the Kaner? I'm really trying to find a decent
barrel for my Sniper. The Assassin's is good, but I want another.
