Hockey Puck for a Pump Handle

[eclecticdialect]

Has anyone ever tried making a hockey puck into a pump handle for a UC kit? Ive been thinking about it lately and remember some similarly cool projects posted on the old MCB (i.e. 8-Ball pump handle)... If it's been done, I would love to see some pics.

Pool balls, skulls and other weird shaped pump handles...yes. But, I have yet to see a hockey puck pump handle. I guess...you'd be using a dual rod pump guide??

I guess so? Haven't though it all the way through yet. I know I'll have to machine a pocket in the puck for some sort of insert, that's as far as I've gotten

Are you sure you're from LA? Not somewhere, well, a little farther north?

That's what all my childhood friends say.

I think it could work, but you would definitely need to embed some sort of threading for the pump rod. Friction on the barrel would also be a concern, but that's nothing a little mayo cant fix.

This idea came from a thread I came across on old MCB where someone was looking for a person who had made an adapter to turn a piece of composite hockey stick shaft into a stock. I started kicking the idea around in my head for an adapter of my own to make a similar stock along with a hockey puck pump handle for a hockey/LA Kings themed build... Here's what I'm thinking the stock adapter would more or less look like. The piece of stick shaft would just get epoxied and slip over the rectangular section.

Awwww craaaaap, I held that gun at one of Slim's games years ago but I can't remember the member's name!

Message MAr or Stilgar; I remember the guy was from Canada (sorry to stereotype twice but he definitely was) and i think he drove down with one of them

I heard somewhere that stereotyping is the most sincere form of flattery... Thank you.
