Just got this in a package deal. Have been asked to release it, by my endlessly patient wife.
Blue CCI Phantom with very little wear. 45 frame with real Hogues, clamping feedneck, TPC internals (late CCI, nylon screw in bolt). Haven't chronoed but I can.
I added a random OK condition barrel (14" CCI); edit: it's been freak bored.
I can do it. Sometimes it isn't pretty. It's right at the limit of my lathe, which is only a 9x20 with a 20mm through bore. But I have some nice bars and reamers, and a 7/8" collet to chuck them in.
If you want me to take a shot at them (and stock Phantom barrels only), shoot me a PM. I could be convinced. I've also successfully rethreaded a cocker barrel down to Phantom but that's very dependent on having a good surface to grip at the muzzle. (Pretty proud of nailing that HSS Acme tool on the first try, though.)
What happened to the barrel that was with it in that package deal?
I was thinking to keep it and try it out, but can also be convinced otherwise. It's a 12" ThunderPig, so straight rifling and lots of porting. And some old paint stuck inside.
Edit: and the red stock class one came with a Stiffi, which is cool - I hadn't seen one on a Phantom before.

Awesome. Yeah I saw that red looked like a carbon and that blue had a ton of rifling. Was interested to see how they'd fly
Biggest hurdle is the pump handle itself, which is mostly a raw material question. New lathe came with a nice knurling tool so a Bushy-style pump is an option, or I can grind a tool profile for a more Buzzard-style groove.
