Powerlyte Merlin:

This is a Powerlyte Merlin. It isn't much to look at milling wise, but it is either 1 of 10 or 13 and uses the same style body milling as the Force of Nature Merlins.





Anyways, it has:

J&J Hard Chrome or Stainless Straight Rifled Barrel (Not sure which.)
AKA Low-Rise Clamping Feedneck
AKA Sidewinder
Palmer's Full-size Rock LPR
Shocktech Bomb 3-way
Shocktech Ram
Custom Products On/Off
AKA Rail

Except for the barrel, ASA, and Feedneck it is as original as I could make it based on conversations I had with Matt C. from Powerlyte. I'm sure some of it is off but I did what I could.

Those guns are pretty, dont say they arent much to look at.

The FON and the PL merlins are exactly the same besides the letters engraved on them, ive seen about equal shares of either..both are pretty hard to come by.

Screw original, make it work good and if its working good now dont mess with it.

original = who gives a poopoo

Nice gun. List has one here I got from ebay.

Milling wise they really aren't much to look at, however, don't take that to mean I think that it's ugly. I am actually very fond of it.

As for making it original, well, almost everything else I own has been tinkered with or fussed with so I figured I would preserve the history on this one. Besides, Shocktech and Palmer's are hardly stock parts worth complaining about.

Although the new Sidewinder bottoms are definitely not my favorite.

Duzzy, that is very nice!
I'll try and upload the pictures I have of mine sometime. I know, I am lazy and keeping them on the camera card isn't getting them posted.
