Original Prototype : 99 Belsales Evo-X RF, Stock WGP Pot Metal Frame w/ Original WGP Sniper II Guts, Stock WGP 2K pump kit w/ WWA 99/2K pump guide rod

Prototype completed 2.16.2008

 

Below: I played with this one as well - but in the end left it non-AT'ed -- Note the 45 frame, WGP Sniper II guts - and especially how the trigger is set such that the portion of the trigger that crossed the safety hole does not block the safety hole at all. This hole is very close to 3/16" (or just right for a #10 brass rod)

Below : Components
3/16" brass rod,
#10x 5/16" x 1" Aluminum Spacer,
1/8" steel rod or 1/8" brass rod
#4x40 screws (or #4x40 CCM shoulder bolts)
#10x32 nut
#10 brass washers
