Anyone know some interesting history on this piece? Is it worth anything?

The body is from a pump marker along the lines of the original Line SI Bushmaster, widely copied in the late 80's early 90's by just about everyone under the sun. The slot over the trigger frame is where you would normally connect a pump. Not too sure about the extra mass at the constant air adapter, it looks like it's a conversion of some sort, a PMI tracer with a 3rd party gadget on the end.

Gas it up with a CO2 and see if it autoloads as the manual claims. If it doesn't, then it's more then likely a pump with a goofy looking expansion chamber on the tail end.

It's worth $20 if it doesn't autoload, $100 if it does. Finding parts for old pump frames will be near impossible without paying an arm and a leg for them.

that looks like a traccer trigger frame, that slot over the frame is the hole where the pump handle would attach the the bolt. you can see the slot around the bolt where the sear catches and the seam between the bolt and hammer just behind that.are you shure that setup on the back isnt some sort of 12 gram or is that the recocking mechanism? show the other side.p.s.did the vl 2000, just bearly showing in the second pic, come with the gun?does it still work? thats some old school points.ive been shooting mine for ten years,it started life on a line si bushmaster and now sits on a warped hyperframe mag.

isnt that the thing that was on Ebay theback part of it was a conversion kit for a pump marker that makes it semi auto and i think the valve is based on the basic design on the autmag valve i think that info is correct someone posted a thread about it last weak try doing a search

The autoloader was a pump-to-semi conversion kit. It was taken out of commission when sued by AGD.

Looks cool.

Never heard of an autoloader - and Im not sure why AGD would sue them.

It does look like a pump/semi conversion kit. There were many of them back in the day.

The gun itself looks like an older phantom - but its not. Its hard to tell - there are 100 kinds of nelson clones like that...

hmmm

I MIGHT be interested in it if you want to sell/trade - email me

thanks

It's posted on ebay... but well over the amount I would be willing to pay.
