    Infection Chord Mag Build

    I scored this off of ebay about a month back, and figured I should document the build a little. I'm the current owner of the Infection SFL, so I'm going to try to do my best to pay homage to it's older brother.

    Here are the parts I've managed to compile for the build.
    - Infection Chord body/rail/barrel
    - DW CF foregrip
    - RPG Subzero feedneck
    - Red X-valve
    - Lukes mini vert frame - double trigger
    - Red CP on/off on order from my local shop
    - CCM fittings on order

    Currently at Caustic Customs for match anodizing w/ gloss red accents.

    Wasn't this also a brand new set that had never been used before? Man that's like finding a Corvette on blocks in some old lady's garage.

            Awesome! I was wondering if you were going to post this up. It was fun watching the bidding war on the chord If you haven't used Caustic Customs for anodizing, you are in for a treat. Stephans work is top notch, but his communication is the best!

            Btw, is there a back story about the parts?

              Thanks Bunny. I know this body went for a good premium. I'm sure the seller is happy, as am I.

              As for back story, there isn't much. The seller told me this was anodized in the same batch as the Infection SFL Mag was back in 2003. This mag was never built and just sat in a box until he sold it on ebay last month. So I'm technically the second owner, but the first user of the marker.

                I think he's just about got it. This is a picture he sent to me today. His ano sample is on the left, and the stock feedneck (original ano) I sent as a sample is on the right.

                    This was done with the infection SFL I believe which was originaly owned by xcrimsonghostx here on AO.

                    It looks like whitewolf forgot about it and found it in a box

                            The parts just came in today. I'm just waiting on the cp rail and on/off to come in to my local shop. In the mean time, I'll just toss on another asa to tune it and have it ready to go. Needless to say, he did a fantastic job. I think it's a pretty solid ano match. I hope you guys approve of the restoration.
