Spanky or Homebrew?!

[Imamericansalt]

I think its a homebrew but was encouraged to once again ask the real experts...what say you great guardians of the chronicles?

[XEMON]

No idea, but I like that frame with the funky trigger guard.

Back block I think is a Spanky Q
never seen this body milling

[Ecapnation]

That feed neck, back block, and the powder coating is leaning entirely spanky. That being said they did sell blanks it is entirely possible that somebody milled this themselves.

It's got a kind of Homebrew vibe on a spanky body blank if you ask me

[DocsMachine]

It's entirely possible I made and installed that trigger guard roughly a million years ago. Pic from my archives:



I used to do that kind of thing fairly regularly, back in the days when all the manufacturers were making single-trigger frames, all the players wanted doubles, and the tourney people started requiring full guards.

I did... I'd guess anywhere from 50 to 100 'Cocker frames like that over the years.

Doc.

It bears a striking resemblance for sure. Thank you!

Quite the mutt, fun looking build. AIM body? would explain the feedneck. PPS lpr, ANS ram, ST bomb 2. Chrome parts, Q block, bench, switched out for the originals. WGP reg still there.

Spanky used angel feeds long before aim

If you all had to throw a number out...what would be a fair price assuming it was working.

For me I see a pile of parts.... And some are disposable/unsellable I wouldn't put more than $200 on this

Here are some spanky for sale as a referene for pricing

So most likely between $230 and $330 for yours?

This ram is non rebuildable. Does it work currently? Do you have a barrel with matching colors?

that milling is interesting, as stated, thats definitely a spanky Q back block, which they stopped including when FBM took over the machining and switched to 2k spec

that body being angel threaded makes it a likely candidate for a spanky body, thay maybe someone had milled down to match the profile of the q-block?
is it painted? that surface finish doesnt look right for anno

that front block looks like it got some major dremel work done to it, if you remove it does the body have bare metal from it being cut down to mini spec?
