An expansion chamber was basically a 3.5oz tank that let the CO2 (wait for it) expand. It meant better consistency or something. Anyway, it wasn't necessarily a Planet upgrade thing, but they would splash anno a expansion chamber for 20 notes.
Eclipse automag questions
- Thread starter topchef
- Start date
so its likely a custom anno job then if the expansion chamber is done? or where all the splash annos around that time custom?

The eclipse body kits were all splash annoed. It was probably bought then put on the gun. Then whoever owned it had the tank annoed to match.
did you get the piccy I sent over?
Dunno if it worked cos I ran out of credit after the first one
If not i'll sort some out for the morrow

edit: if it was annod after, then it was a pretty good match.
ur a legend indeed mr cooks
many thanks.
Its a bit iffy but i have some better ones that I will sort out later.
Can anyone make any sense as to what it is etc??

What?
What part are you not understanding?

That is a stock, Airgun Designs 68 Automag, Level 7 Powerfeed.
That is what you got when you bought one for £289.
Then you needed an Airsystem or Co2 Setup.
They were built to run on air. The valve, was called the A.I.R, which stood for something like Advanced Integrated Regulator.
They could have various customisations.
You could buy splash annodised parts individually, including the 3.5 oz bottle, which fitted onto an anti liquid valve.
Eclipse sold these parts individually, but, they also sold complete guns, with all the parts and the Eclipse name on it.
So, your one..is an original Eclipse gun, which would be a custom marker.
well that clears that up then
pardon me for asking
(but thanks for the answer lol, very informative)
Being as you seem to know plenty about these markers (where as I know sweet F.A), whats this worth in your opinion in todays market? lets say its in full working order with a little anno wear and three or so barrells?
I know its worth whatever someone is prepared to pay, but what would you estimate it at? £50 or more
-thanks

See my first post.
You aren't gonna get rich off it.
So get it for what you can, £30 say and either sell it for more, or bung it on the wall.
