XSV Ego, built in rail..

[Skeet]

To be honest...not likely to start hacking it about as its literally being annodised right now...look for pics in Gorgeous Guns very soon...one off XSV coming your way!

 

[Lovetone]

so just to clarify, whats the issue with just getting a cp or similar on off which allows you to slide the mount futher forward?

just cant quite grasp from reading this what the problem really is?!

personal preference really isn't it, i'm quite happy with it with both a 1.1L and a 0.7L bottle. Hardly much difference

 

[Lovetone]

no i know that just duuno what he doesnt like, the length or the height...or both !

 

[TheRenton]

well i looked at sticking the stock ego rail on the rail? and it was a little too high for my liking, prefer it with the integrated one

a LOT of people like the star frames cos of the integrated rail.

How is a properly milled frame a "hacked gun" how do you think they make them in the first place?

 

[TheRenton]

I think milling it is a good idea, i'd like to try your Trems m8 when you've done it and compare

ok i will rephrase that id think about the resale of a properly milled yet none the less permanently altered frame.

The only problem with that is due to the rail you will end up with a drop of nearly an inch, if you have the skills/access to miller and dont mind paying planet a fiver to re-anno i'd still machine it.

I didnt know planet did annodising?

Neither did I...thats why mine has gone to Slothball to be pampered.

I dunno yet about trying a CP...will do at some point, but I liked how compact my setup was with a micro drop...and just fitting a CP ASA wont make much difference at all.
