    Anyone see the SL74 yet?

    I'm not usually one to hype up guns or do the ZOMG GUN ES TEH LEET thing, but I thought some might appreciate it here. This is solely because of the finish... Aurora is just a hot finish IMHO. Not all are in Aurora, but they are available from the factory.



    Also I know alot of you old schoolers are fans of Aurora, so I figured I'd share
    I would totally buy one if I were a fan of Egos, but this is not the case. I am partial to Mags, Angels, and my (but nobody else's ) SFT Shocker.

        yeah people can get aurora finishes for far far less then what it use to cost.

            The new "agg"? I think you are the first person I have seen use that word in several months...



            Elitist AO wrong yet again.

              Eh, Id buy an aurora finish marker. Then Id grab my video camera and get a shot of me throwing it out into I-75 traffic I know Im the only person on the planet that is sick of hearing the aurora hype. Im not impressed. If all the ano guys could do it we would see a flood of makers hit the streets with that finish but the phase would last as long as the "neon under my car" or "Oakley truck window sticker." Its just a classic case of "I want what I cant have." I mean, its a frigging rainbow? If I want rainbows Ill get myself a bowl of Lucky Charms I flush bigger piles of agg down my tiolet.

                Like I implied above, did not know it was the new trend. That is unfortunate. Back in the day, Aurora used to be super pricey (I could never afford it). I think Aurora is pretty sharp looking, have for years. The kiddies making it a fad is somewhat unfortunate, but it really is a sharp color scheme IMO.

                  I'm kinda gettin' the impression that you dont particularly care for the Aurora finish Warwitch.


                  But, I do agree with you. And, the biggest draw about the aurora finish today is because of the hype about the original aurora and it being so hard to do and costly. It will run its course for a coupla months, then dye out when the next "gotta have" thing shows up. Like Faux Mink lined Halo feed necks
                  WOW, sigs. Havent seen these in a while here on AO.

                          That one was a nexus ( I believe there where two and I am pretty sure they where both nexus) and it was ALL aurora.


                          Deff paid way too much either way. In person it does look pretty good, would I pay extra to have it? Nope.


                          The guy who Aurora'd his dark explained how he did it and if you have the right equipment it doesn't seem too hard. Just time consuming.
