A parts-box Phantom.
The good - looks cool. Bored out the muzzle brake to fit the stock barrel, and got the bead sight lined up. Hard line, gauged valve, bucket changer, and a brand new M16 style grip.
The bad - the valve and frame were trials for a gas through mod, that I changed my mind on. The valve is spotfaced and tapped 10-32, and plugged with a set screw and Loctite. The frame has a 5/16" hole that lines up with the hole on the valve. Neither is visible when the gun is assembled or affects function. Could save you some time if you wanted to try a similar mod... The clear lens on the gauge is also missing, but the gauge still works. Also, it's old style internals; I honestly couldn't tell much difference using it.
Price:SOLD at $325 as shown, or $285 without the bucket changer. I could also do BBA instead of VSC for $270.
