    68 carbine, is this a factory front block

    I've just never seen this before. This front block setup seems a little strange to me

    It may not be factory, but that's how it was done to get VA.

      Yeah there's no branding on it at all.

      Whoever put it together, it does seem strange that they chose giant expansion chamber into micro hose

        There was a short period of time, which fits this marker, where micro was all the rage.

      The Mini Lite variant of the Pro Lite had a very small diameter compression hose running from the VASA to the side tapped valve. I don't think the fittings are 1/8npt threaded either.

        The factory Mini-Lite vertical was angled backward about 15 degrees or so, and side-tapped. That's aftermarket, and could be from any one of a dozen manufacturers.
