    WTB Carter Slide Frame

    Probably not likely to find this but in my quest to build the ultimate Nelson, looking for a Carter slide frame and rail.

    Have you considered the RTR sliders? While I think the Carter’s look nicer. The RTR is a lot smoother then the two Carter sliders I have had. RTR just did a run of sliders not to long ago so the price and ease of finding one would be better I bet.

    I don’t think I have ever seen a Carter slider separate from a marker. Also something to consider Carter parts are often marker specific. Not sure how well they would work on other Nelson’s. Every one seems just a lil different then the next. Tolerance is not super consistent on them marker to marker from what I have seen.

      I don't have a spare Phantom frame on hand to compare, but I thought the hole spacing was slightly different on them then standard Nelsons or something like that?

      I was initially worried about that and mocked it up with two Carters I have here, both seemed to work fine. They're definitely a bit more hit or miss in terms of quality but figured I'd see what shakes loose and go from there.

        Either or should work on the phantom. They are super close. The phantom hammer setup is pretty forgiving. I snagged an RTR but I need to send it out for ano match.
