PGC Metal Slide and Frame with Custom Engraved Faux Ivory Grips
-
Rep point for eightball, he pointed out that this Econoline has the Five Window setup. And, as I am tired of this(and noone will probably guess it) the other thing was the five window option was first available in 1962, which is the year my Econoline was built. I'll get some more pics up tonight.
lol, thanks man... I knew it had to be the windows. But, since you said there were two things I was reaching for a second thing and that is why I guessed about the motor. Where the heck is it located in that thing?
-
OK, guess time.... Is it the extra windows along the back and maybe that it is built on a van layout and the engine and tranny sit between the front seats?

nice BDU's there, what where u doing in texas and new zealand? i love those BDU's.... what type are they?
Sorry for not checking this thread before now. The BDUs I am wearing are modern styled and made by TrueSpec and licensed byTigerstripe Products. I used to wear repops of Vietnam styled advisor camo with correct buttons and such but they faded too quckly and at $90 a set I bought two and decided I didn't want to buy a third. You can find those at

I am actually from Texas and I am living temporarily in New Zealand (until Dec. 2006)

I am getting so much mileage out of this series of pics that I took of my M4. If you guys are getting sick of it just let me know. The reflex site pictured on top of the ACOG is a TEG Option "model" that bought from Dentrinity so I could use the mount for my real Firepoint reflex site. I just got the real one yesterday and the preliminary word is that I think I am going to have to get used to the height of the thing. I mean it isn't bad at all but just higher than I am used to. I will try to site it in and report the actual use of it. I have liked the ACOG for a couple of years now and never got around to buying one until I saw a picture of a scope just like the one I built. Well, that and until recently I didn't have another M4 (I had one and sold it about 1.5 years ago). I also own an SR25 that I will likely get the 4x35 G&P version because I think the extra length will be good for my sniper replica. I also think the killflash is a necessity to visually balance the NSN version of this scope. I had to get creative with it though because I couldn't get it to zero out. I was not able to adjust the crosshair up enough so I took it apart to discover there is nothing to provide positive resistance opposite the adjustment screw. There was also nothing to do so for the left/right adjustment. There are however small indentions opposite the adjustment screws that I got creative with it and used snips of the factory recoil spring from my WA 1911 to apply to positive resistance I needed. I haven't tried to site it in yet but it does bounce back where it needs to. I will be surprised if there is an issue.
Here is a pic of the scope by itself.... Again, the fake red dot is attached because I just got the new "real" one yesterday.

Squarepusher, I have to say that I like your rifle even though typically I don't like the long front with a telescoping stock. I think the "chunky" stock helps balance it visually for me.

This lat one is a team mate. Someone else too the pick but I like it so I included it.

Sepia is a good setting to add some "artsy" feel.....
-
Yes it is.... Although, last weekend I was using my aimpoint because of the rain. I couldn't zero out my ACOG.

***Qualifying statement*** Used to be a repair/upgrade tech in Texas before moving to NZ. So, I am a Texan living in NZ for two years. Been on a few forums for a few years now and I really like this site so I thought I would join. I have more pics of my other 4 AEGS that back home in Dallas locked up in storage.

Old picture of my SIG locked away in storage in the U.S. I will liberate it from its dark prison around Christmas when I travel home. I have a new A.R.M.S. replica mount for the Aimpoint replica now and i plan to buy a cheekpiece for grins as well.
