how does this custom idea sound?

****SS25 PUMP****

I want to make my SS25 custom in a cool way. so I thought of some ideas...

• half block milling/ upgrade
• dust purple anodizing
• slash style milling (similar to PTP micromag)

heres is a rough sketch of what my plans are (i drew it in study hall )

as you can see all the parts are stock exept for the halfblock parts.
(everything colored black just isn't going to be milled. the white is just to show the milling, the whole gun is going to be one color.)

I wan't the milling to be similar to this:

but with more of a straight scratch look. and all across the body (similar to my drawing).

and i want the anno to be this color:

(thanks mann for the pic, i would have bought this from you if it were for less $$$ )


(btw i want the whole thing annoed, all parts, exept for the ones that can't be annoed)
so i need YOUR help!

i need to know:

1. is this a good idea?
2. is halfblock a good upgrade?
3. is this going to be very costly? (can you give me an estimate?)
4. where is a good place to get this done? (milling, anno, etc...)
5. will it look cool?

thanks in advance. REMEMBER this is just a CONCEPT so i am open to ideas, and suggestions. i really want to overhaul my SS25, so if you want HELP ME OUT!

Sounds a lot like a ptp micro cocker. Try a search in the bst's or on pbr. They look pretty shwank

but this is an ss25 pump!

I'm just saying that it would kinda look like a micro. The 86* frame sounds cool. I haven't yet shot one but from what I have seen they look pretty comphy. For anno I don't have any experience but I like look of what I've seen from A+ and from gruntbull.

I really can't think of too many places that mill at the moment but if I can think of one I will come back.

OH! oops my bad, i love ptp stuff, just i want it pump.

IMO the whole beauty in an SS-25 is the fact that it's sooooo clean. Your idea ruins that.

NOTICE I SAID: In MY opinion.

If you wanted to do this, it would have been better off to start with a pre-milled VF cocker body and a CCM autotrigger/pump kit.

Also, you're looking at pouring AT LEAST another 300.00 for the milling/anodizing.

So for 800.00... you could have purchased a beautiful one of a kind Carter Buzzard, and probably a new pair of goggles, or stock class harness and tubes.

but you do what you want.

Also, last time I checked, the SS-25 comes with an 86 degree frame...

You do realize any cocker can be made into a pump.

yeah like i said it's a concept i had. i really appriciate your feedback and thank you for the estimate. i did include the 86* trigger frame label in my diagram, it's just drawn like a 90*.
if it's going to cost 300 then it might be too much. it will kill my warranty. mabe just a purple bodykit anno? idk?

thanks for the positive response again.

Yea don't mill the clean lines of a CCM. If you must, anno it.

thanks! how much will a dust purple anno, for the bodykit cost (estimate)? and where is a good place to get it done?

[warbeak2099]

Gruntbull could probably do it for around $50-60.
