What did it start out as?

prien007 · 01-30-2007, 11:42 PM

Sure it is a nelson, but I was curious if it was perhaps a regular stock class pistol with the top tube removed etc. Or a kit that kept the grip frame and internals but is not an original tube etc.

The grip says powerline 1200. The barrel is a fat aluminum one with a steal insert in the back that slides into the main tube. The feedneck appears to be brass and the top of the main tube does exhibit some spot weld marks from perhaps the removal of a top tube. I am a nelson illiterate and this is the first I've owned.

Most likely a Nelspot 007 conversion. Looks like a barrel extension was added, feed tube removed, and a DF added.

DOes it have a number engraved in the tip of the barrel??

If so its one of the old cousins/AAGG's field rentals.. it was a line SI direct feed nipple soldered onto a nelspot 007 that had its top tube removed.. sometimes they turned down the the tip for the extended barrel some times it was already turned down

It has a couple deep marks on the end of the barrel, but unless they are 11 or 111 I see no serial. Thanks for the replies.

Barrel extension on a chopped 007 with the standard aftermarket pump. A good curiosity, it may or may not be a good shooter depending on how the extension lines up.

I never really thought of that B. But after checking it only appears to have a little run out, but it holds air and does seem to fire pretty straight. The steal portion of the barrel is pitted. The pump stroke does leave some to desire.

That looks a whole lot like mine with a different pump and air source.
Pretty much the same gun

Get ahold of a flex hone bore-hone (17mm) to fix the pitting in the barrel, use it slowly and sparingly so you don't remove too much metal.
