...I did not like the way it balanced. A 14" barrel is a bit much especially with the 2260 tube...it feels much better as a carbine. I fabricated the custom cheek riser from a bunch of stainless and billet parts I had left over from my chopper and 56 chevy.
You can raise up the cheek weld by adding shims between the two pieces of stainless. And depending on how Fat your mellon is, you can swing the top piece to the left to make it wider. The lop is not adjustable however, although it could be done easily if one wanted to. This carbine shoots cp 14.3 at 600fps and it liks cp's, predators, and jsb's equally well.

The butt is a mirror arm from a pro street chopper I had. It is actually very comfortable. The curve is a perfect fit, and since I have very long arms, the l.o.p. is perfect for me.
Correct on the Cothran parts, but the barrel was done by Alejandro from A.C. Custom parts. It has a new Cothran "roller" trigger too and I love it! Thanks guys |
