Actually, it was an honest question. Jokes aside, we have a fleet of KPs, and we are looking for replacement stocks. Are you having them made, are you repurposing stocks from air rifles? Please let us know We need about 30 stocks.

Best,

Smiley

[BretG]

The best source for you then is Silver Hill. They have K patterns from commissioned stocks they made years ago. The stock are black walnut and very nice.

Here is a new M20B.
I'm told it is doing well in its new home.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Smooth! Love it! How are the lever’s coming along?

[morpheus]

What would the price tag be on a beauty like this? I am definitely interested in picking one of these up in the future.

[spydrmn]

We have a couple projects in the pipeline currently that need to wrap up. After that we will be focusing on some R&D and restocking build parts during the playing season. Depending on how things progress we may take on some more builds later this year. Keep an eye out for some expanded offerings and new models. Thanks for the support.

Another M20L in Stainless Steel enters the world.

[Alexndl]

Would it be possible to show a picture of the lever assembly?
I want to understand how the hand lever pivot the smaller lever in the stock

This is my KL.

Absolutely flawless piece of machinery. If G&H is taking orders, get your orders in. Or don’t. But you’ll have a lifetime of missing out on owning one.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Can’t wait to see it.

[spydrmn]

The elves have been busy.

[XEMON]

Is that a south bend 9c?
Love your tooling, couldn't take the lantern post on mine ... Which colet chuck is that?

[spydrmn]

Xemon you are correct. That is a South Bend 9C. I haven't had the numbers ran yet but we believe it may be a 1940. Came with a ton of accessories and parts. I added the 5C collet chuck. $150 off eBay. Comes with oversized back plate. You turn that on your lathe and it's true as can be. Our elves really know their way around the equipment.

[XEMON]

I got a 1936 model 415 (basically a SB9C) and I've been pinp'in it up but haven't gotten a collet chuck.
Now i need to look at the 5C collet (was looking at the ER style)
Thanks for sharing.

[WORR13]

thats a 9a with quick change gear box (nice lathe, wish mine had those large dials). you can have your # run and id'd through grizzly they have all the south bend records
-i have a 1947 9a

[spydrmn]

First run of GHOST guns. Ready for testing this season. These should see a lot of action this year. As usual these are not show ponies. These are war horses.

[spydrmn]

We use pixie dust as an adhesive. Unicorn farts are applied as a catalyst to form the joints.

[BretG]

Stainless welding and 56% silver. Some blood too.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Awesome can’t wait to try out the new valve design.

[Alexndl]

Any info on what is the value of one of those KL or lever pirate?

[BretG]

These are a M20P Kabong, a M20L KL42, and Two M10Ls KL43 and KL44 and all are done in Stainless Steel. We have been working overtime on the GHOST valve test guns and when we complete testing, this will be our platform moving forward.

[packersrule729]

Any chance of GHOST backwards compatibility? If it’s an upgrade, I’d love to grab one for my recent KL

Let me know—thanks!

[BretG]

We did some testing in the Castle Jam game at Pinnacle Paintball. The guns functioned very well at 50 degrees, getting 30 to 35 shots per 12 gram. The velocity was very consistent at all ranges of the 12 gram use. We chronoed before and at most field entries.
I used the long lever M20L KL42 and it worked perfectly. I was inside the castle and marked 6 Blues on their front line. I absolutely love this rifle. It has Tru-Glo sights and it is right on.
Greg ran M10L KL43 and liked it very much and is an expert with pirate 12 gram guns. His biggest concern was the 10 round side tube ran out of paint too fast.
The guns passed this combat test.

[packersrule729]

Agreed. Unreal efficiency.

Question stands… is the valve something we can drop in? I’d absolutely buy one for my KL (and other Sheridans, if they’re compatible with cart valves)

[BretG]

Chrono speed was 280.
We have not tested in the high temperature band yet, but will do so soon. We know the low side is good.
We have several problems to resolve before we take any orders. The shop is part time. We don't have a factory overseas that makes stuff for us. Every build is custom and worked out before we start. We have a 30 day build window and won't take any work more than we can handle. Our legal process is well underway and we want to do this right so we don't crash and burn as many others have in this type of work.
As to GHOST valve, these are intended for these custom build guns. They are instapierce and won't fit in PGPs unless set up for external line. They will require modification to a K series clone that uses a cartridge valve and we will do retro fit to our built guns as soon as the smoke clears.

[netsurferdude2]

I had the pleasure of shooting that M10L lever and it was scary fun. As Bret said, the ammo ran out too fast and I went through 35 shot before needing to change the 12. I was amazed by the efficiency.
