i picked up an eclipse sight rail, smart parts tourny lock, and bottom line off of him a few weeks ago that match these. if who ever wins these wants them let me know, id rather they be with a set than on my project.

hahaha, make sure your snipe bid is super-high! how rare that the matching parts would turn up like this? make sure he ships to sweden though

Rarely use the "snipe bid" I usually figure out what the object is worth, and if it is something I want / need. Then I add about 30% of the value or more.

While the foregrip, rail and barrel maybe original, the tank/drop/stock are not. If you look at the latter, you will see where the red looks almost marbleized on the finish. These parts were an attempt to duplicate the originals. I know the tank is fake for sure as they had a brass vale and the Smart Parts versions had on/off valves with a color matching knob and most if not all the tanks splashed, were 20'ozs.

you are mistaken. the rail, grip and barrel are regular smart parts splash kit affair. the other parts were likely done by john gross from florida paintball center (you can tell as his work had a distinct style). it certainly wasn't an attempt to match the sp design either; one is splash the other is splash / sponge. they are not "fake", they are just custom anodized parts. custom anodized parts that happen to match the anno of a certain automag recently acquired by a certain person from sweden.

You may call it what you want, but when somone calls the package rare and only 3 of the original parts actually are, the other 3 are custom, not rare. That was the point I was trying to make.

Are you looking to buy the crazy black splash parts, or the John Gross stuff, swe? The Gross parts match a Micromag I picked up not too long ago and I'm going to be bidding on this auction. If you only need the crazy black splash parts we can work something out where I buy and ship you those, or something like that.

[Cyco-Dude]

pretty sure the gross parts also match an automag swe picked up. looks like you two will have to duke it out! who has the deeper pockets?

dude, the gross parts are more rare than the smart parts splash, ok?

HAHAHAHAHA! You made my day

So it was you who bought that Micromag. The sad thing is that I already started building a Automag with different parts of the one I bought ... and so popped this up. Are interested in everything. But he does not ship to Sweden.
