Gold "Lucky Shot" B2K2 w/LCD

[zinger565]

Not mine. Never seen the "lucky shot" or "go for the gold" engraving before. Not sure if custom, or some sort of special edition/giveaway

Price is a bit much though, especially for what is otherwise a standard b2k2.

My guess is it's custom/SE/giveaway. Never seen that one either. I think the price is 'cuz it's an X-Mill & pandemic pricing.

very cool, but not $212+ cool

If it had PDS, I could maybe see that price.

I feel like even that is kind of a stretch. I've never paid more then $65 for blind b2k. This one looks cool and unique, but isn't private label, no aftermarket parts or upgrades, I'd say $120 tops. Even if it had eyes I'd go no higher then $160.

I dont know guys, even some classic spyders without upgrades are fetching $65+. Ever heard of inflation? Things cant stay 120 forever. Prices on all vintage pg gear has gone crazy since 2010 with Cockers and AKA’s leading the pack, and everything else catching up slowly, now even lowly non-PL Angel LED and LCDs fetching $350+? ICD, Impies, and Timmies seem to be lagging behind but catching up

[zinger565]

Always a crap shoot with solenoids too. I don't think Humphrey makes them anymore, or anything that would be a drop-in replacement. Every time I come across one they're around $80, so always keep fingers crossed nobody's been an idiot and taken it apart/lost parts/blown it.

[Myrkul]

The older B2ks use Skinner/Parker noids, the newer ones are Humphrey.

That being said I've yet to see one fail. They are very robust and reliable noids. I'd be confident the noid is fine in this one.

[glaman5266]

I concur. The noids & boards in ICD stuff are typically very robust. Never got a bad board or noid, never had to replace one either.

[Daltech]

This thing is a beauty. The board and harness have no reason to fail unless mistreated. The valves can and will fail. Wires might get a little stiff and break but any tech worth his wallet may fix it up in a pinch. This thing looks super clean for someone trying to get BM2K going.

FYI it took me 2 Angel LED’s and a few different misc parts kits to get my Angel LED bought off eBay back to it’s original glory.

[Myrkul]

I've rebuilt 5/6 bushmasters, at this point, and every single one of them needed the harness repaired. The wires are very stiff, brittle and fragile at this point.
