sloonan's Tippmann SL68 Modified Stock Class Project (for Nelson Build Off)

Here is the progress so far. It's only going to be modified stock class because of the auto trigger and I'm not sure how to change this.

Before:


1. Put on 12 gram changer, cut off the feedneck flush with the body.



2. Set up a homeade Hitman mod for the pump grip with a brass bracket and generous use of Plasti Dip.



3. Attach trigger shoe, sand the body, attach the horizontal feed with JB Weld (Sorry about the pics, they are from my phone)



4. Clean up and Plasti Dip pump grip (Sorry about the pics, they are from my phone)


5. Paint the body (3 coats automotive paint, 3 coats clear top coat) (Sorry about the pics, they are from my phone)


6. Put it all together.

I would be very interested to know how you attach the feed. I had a VSC SL-II but the feed ripped off, that cast aluminum just doesn't hold threads. Now I have a vert air, phantom barreled SL that doesn't get used because it's a single loader

I would say that poor SL, but I know it's in good hands. I can't wait to see the finished product.

Hmm, JB huh... I guess fixing my SL goes back on the list. Looks great by the way.
