Pump gun pictures

Yes used to be able to get the wooden stocks or the matel wrap round stocks that attached to the back of the body rather than the bottom of the grip.
Unfortunately the only stock I have for this one is a grip frame T stock and it looks a bit wimpy so I've gone for the speedball setup instead.

Something I cobbled together

Something I've also just cobbled together...

Parts list is:

Early Eclipse cocker body bought on here from Slim. Got full Evolution spec internals, bolt, dialler etc..

Eclipse trigger frame + SP grips. Nickle plate finish is a bit scabby but I plan to re-anno to match body ASAP.

Unitech barrel set, CP direct mount OOPS, budget inline reg + gauge

Made a balls up on the pump conversion. Bought a Vendetta kit from the USA (ebay) for a 2K+ cocker, assuming this would fit ok. But when I stripped body down I found it was drilled for smaller pre-2k block screw.. DOH! Luckily I still had a spare 'old skool' pump set from my 1990's sniper II, so I used that instead. It's a bit floaty (the pump twists) compared other pump kits I have, but I'm hoping to sort this by fitting a DIY guide rod like the CCM kits.

Dialled it in over a chrono yesterday & it shoots sweet

Both my snipers are now pretty much finished.

Third one is still a work in progress, pretty standard with a bottle slung under a T stock. Finding decent 3 1/2 ounce and 7 ounce bottle is the biggest problem.

thompson -- explained

 

[Andygoth]

Yep that's a proper thompson, there's a later version that has a wooden pump as well that matches a thompson front grip.
I haven't been able to find a thompson stock anywhere without ordering one for a real thompson from a US gun store. So the loop frame stock is the best I can manage.
My third sniper is being made up like the bottom left one.

Andy you can get real thompson furniture here in the UK too reasonable prices too last i checked.

 

[Andygoth]

Much too expensive in UK, might have found a guy in the US that can do me a couple of surplus ones cheap, no finish on them just raw walnut.

 

[Andygoth]

Not a pump but something pump related I've been after for a while, a Walnut Thompson sub machinegun stock. I managed to get hold of 2 from the states, they are originals off Thompsons, which is going to mean me doing metal work to make brackets for a sniper.

I dug up some pics of a thompson sniper I put together a few years ago.

hope this helps..
