Ok, gather round AO kiddies, it's STORY TIME
About 7 months ago, by chance of trading and luck, I stumbled upon a sole Hyperframe, no internals, and the only thing that came with it were the crappy panels, and the trigger. About the same time, again by pure chance, I traded with Sk8ermog for a 13 bps board and cash for a halo of mine. The frame was complete trash, and I had no idea how excrutiating the pain was going to be to put this completely together.
So then, after checking around, I contacted my "personal tech" as I refer to him (did custom eye work on my impulse) about getting plugs, wired up for a battery harness and a plug for the noid. Sent it off, got it back, and all the more enthused about getting my automag up and running.
Soon after that, my hyperframe made a nice little trip to Luke, to get fitted with an ubernice trigger, panels, and a microswitch. My hyperframe was still lacking a noid, and my Hypermag was still lacking guidance. As it stood, it was a classic valve, ans phase 2 bolt, supashort luke milled rail, blue ule body with front homecut(previous owner)exile style, and it was in bad shape. Really wish I had a pic of it then. It had gotten so bad looking, and so hopeless, that I had almost given up on whole thing, and was considering parting out the project and saving some face. In a sheer miraculous idea of curiousity, I decided to measure my eblade noid and thought about a transplant. I, and in no way did I plan this, got on, and looked for a replacement noid, and when I was supposed to type in automags, I stopped at "a" and saw air-powered.com sitting in my bar. Long story abruptly ended, I found a noid for 25 dollars, which came with a cocker sear. I then sent it back to luke, for a final checkup, soldering, and some nice yellow/black plasti-panels.
Magnum saved my whole project. I thought for sure that I'd either have to pay a LOT of money for freaking 3 parts annoed
and his thread came to mind. I knew that basement anno ppl couldnt do ULE's but I thought at $10/piece, the worst that could happen is its not blue anymore. And OH MY GOODNESS, my parts came back glistening and looking like new life was breathed into my Hypermag dreams.
I got a great deal on an Xvalve, for my Classic +80; I got my 15* asa from Rogue(said something about blemished, but it looks perfect).
And that brings us up to speed on NOW: Ule is splotchy, but its growing on me. The frame and drop are "camo" annoed(spotted on purpose). The rail will be changed to a black thrasher rail, there is 15* asa, some kind of foregrip, and it will be tuned to perfection
