    Maybe the ugliest milling ever.

    If I remember correctly I picked this up years ago with a bunch of other markers, parts and equipment.

    The guy use to work at I&I sports. Him and buddies that worked there too, use to play and do some crazy stuff to their markers, including milling. This is some of th stuff he did to one of his automags.

    The frame is pretty much shot, there are so many holes tapped on the bottom and bigger, that no standard rail or on/off will work. It was set up with a bob long cradle.

    The rail was cut way short, milled on the side that you can see holes into the rail. The valve is also milled down that the nub that goes into the rail groove is milled down.

    I have not aired it up, but might change the rail, frame and see if the body and valve still usable.

    I actually like the look of that body/valve/rail. something more interesting than the normal plain tube. I'd like to have known the decision making process to mill deeper on the trigger frame after already breaking through the metal though...

      Keeping crud out of those nooks and crannies would be a nightmare.

          I think it looks kind of "Lightsaber-ish"...

            In the vintage bicycle world, they call this "drillium."

              Quality is terrible but design-wise I’ve seen much worse.

                  Oh, that's positively sedate compared to some of the stuff I saw back in the day...
