    Yeah I do like it... I had a nickel palmers barrel that would look good on that, but I parted ways with it long ago....

    Maybe you should trade off/sell the X valve and just go with a black one. I think it'd look better and your black accent pieces would be fine.

      I've got one sitting around here... I'll throw it on and take a look... perhaps even a pic. Thanks for the idea I was sort of thinking that a week or so before I got it back and forgot to check once I got a little drunk on some good ol' mag pron

      Homer moment: "Nickle Palmers, Mmmmmn..." You know, a while back I bought a 14" DW fibur (not this one) and I accidentally separated the rear metal piece one day when the barrel got "stuck" in the marker. I traded it to my brother and he immediately glued it back and it's been fantastic since! Seems that I could have possibly had that polished (or whatever) and set back on the barrel. Yet another missed opportunity .

            I;d have to take a look at one... DM PM'ed me with what I thought was normal AC LPR's... perhaps these are shorter? Do you happen to know the length (including and excluding the threading? I'll keep an eye out for them. Thanks!

                have u considered polishing the x-valve? u'd lose the X but it'd match at least:) or find a beat up old X that needs re-anno or polish.

                also have u thought of milling the insides of the grip panels to fit the lpr?

                or if u dun care much about the lpr u have, sand down the sides of the knob

                  Oh yes! I am waiting on finds to buy a cheap faded X to try that with! (not a huge priority as wisdom teeth are coming out next) but I've been a little lazy to getting around to taking pic's with a black X that's on my wife's mag.

                  My brother kept trying to get me to mill the insides of the grips (which is certainly do-able). He also mentioned sanding/rounding the cap. Heck he's even currently modifying the cap of an old karni tickler to fit the current stock tickler. However I've got a hidden untouched set of clear grip panels that I can't cut into . At some point I'd like to really showcase the internal pneumatics. Now I know this sort of defeats the purpose of having a sleeper setup but I can switch the panels back and forth as I like.

                  Thanks for the suggestions! If I only had hundreds of $$$ more to sink into this marker (already cost more than an X-Mag) I'd like to try for a polished EMax or TunaMax valve

                            haha its kind of funny that the polishing does actually hide the gun in the woods. That last picture is crazy. Where the grass is shining on the frame, you cant tell its a reflection unless you were aware of it before hand

                                Yep... still haven't put the black XValve on in leu of the pewter, but I'm trying not to Now... I've been teased now by MagHog potentially offering up a trigger of some sort. Now I'm sitting here drooling over the possibilities! If I do pick up a polished trigger out of the deal then I will officially have to pick up polished detents so that they aren't the only black things left on it. (OK I'll need to find a polished frame screw.

                                Well... Just got a nice can of turtle wax... so my day tomorrow seems like it's all planned out!
