What was the hopper that came with it? IIRC it was a Silver V/L 2000
Also what #’s do the gun whores of MCB have? (Mine is #027) and if you have pics I would love to see them also.
How many were made?

I saw one at a store back in 96 and I wanted to buy it, but at the time it was out of my price range. One day about 6 years ago one walked into my store and I bought it. It is missing the hopper and I have been looking for a Silver one to go with it but I have not been able to find one. Some have said that it was just a standard black that came with it, but I thought it was a silver one. Any info would be appreciated or if you have any other info on it that would be good also. Thanks

Well, mine didn't come with one when i bought it last year, the I&I ads though that I have shows it with a black VL2000. I was thinking that there really wasn't anything in 96 when they started these besides the black, with the colored shells coming out later. The only "silver" shells i remember were just painted and tended to flake off really easily, but the milky translucent were one of the earlier ones and may have come with some of these. I have a vl3000 with those shells.




Mine is #37, they were advertised first at 500 in 96, then later at 250 in some 97 ads and finally i have seen mention of 1 of 125. I am inclined to think the actual production was closer to the 125 mark.

Thanks Wolf that is what I was afraid of. Here I am looking for something that I already have. What is the condition of yours and did you have pics?

Sorry to say its not the best condition. wear and discoloration are evident and not everything is original.
