    Palmers is out of stock on their ASA collars and I needed one for my Typhoon after I converted it back from it's Hurricane format, so I finally got to it last night.

    Brass, of course - I don't have access to a lathe or mill so brass tubing is the easiest thing for me to work on with the tools at my disposal.

    In my ongoing quest to have as much brass on my Trilly build as possible, I grabbed a Shocktech LPC off ACP.com and gambled that it used the same threads as a WGP ram... they do. 🙂 (I also made a brass Rock knob but that was awhile ago.)

    I drilled through from the inside and tapped it for a 10-32 setscrew - just like the Shocktech setup - which also blocks off the barb hole. A bit of polishing later and voilà.

    Slip fit on the back, cocker threads on the front, bored so that you can run a regular freak back and a freak XL Inserts. BMC got the spacing on it worked out so that the insert sits too far forward for the bolt to grab it and pull it back.

    Maybe, I could be convinced ... copper casting is pure gambling 😅

    The SL-68 II needed a new pump handle to fit over the freak adapter, and I finally got a chance to tinker in my old man's shop and kick one out!

    Super happy with how this turned out, still needs a bit of work to finish it in, but not much.

    Nice job on the conversion, looks like it could of come that way originally.

    Did my first Stock class sniper conversion.

    -Drilled thru the feedneck and twisted it off with a grade8 bolt.
    -lined up the feedblock and drilled and tapped the hole
    -chopped the feed down a bit

    whole process was maybe 20 minutes.
    surprised myself with how easy this was.
    did some light tuning earlier and shes getting 30 solid shots @ ~275.

    this set up feels so RIGHT
    very stoked to get this one out on the field.

    Tested a new idea to locate the screw holes in the mold and it worked great. I need a few little clearance grind on the back side and they will be ready to find their permanent home 😁
