Anyone know what this is? At a glance, it is easily mistaken for a trracer, but the internals are slightly different, the barrel is threaded different, the pump arm is different, and the triiger frame is made of metal verses the plastic trracers. The barrel is also very thick and heavy.

(Yes, I know its a mess in the pics, but im working on it)







Also, any idea on what barrel threads these are, and what is it for the trracer?

Thanks again

Its a diablo pump from NPS back in the day..

Threads are unique to themselves..

Worth anything once I get it cleaned back up?

[Jackel411]

Probally not, they really only go for about 50 bucks on ebay

Worth money to a collector. But it's not the NPS "Diablo". I had one, pump was plastic and said "diablo" on one pump arm. Could be an old TASO Spartan..........

Anybody ever tell you dont get in an argument with some one from MCarterbrown?

Thats a tell tale Diablo frame and I also noticed it was a rental. The "diablo" on the pump arm was only ever screened on with white paint.. This probally wore off..

Its 100% not a taso as it doenst have the ear marks of a taso gun , IE SS internals , TASO threaded barrels which were slightly wider cocker barrels AND 100% nelson compatabilty..

But the Diablo had a plastic pump, and if I remember mine, only had one pump arm on the left. Not arguing, just saying what I remember of my extensive collection over the years.

There were two versions of the Diablo.. The Diablo , a pump that had a bolt that cocked from the sides , and one that was set up to cock like a phantom..

I'm positive the Diablo I had had 1 pump arm with a plastic pump. Here's a pdf manual of the gun I had.
