Personalizing my Corsair……AGAIN!!!

Really been enjoying this lil gun and i can’t say that enough. She just seems RIGHT for me. The weight, the looks, the simplicity, the accuracy, the power, the handling and the list goes on and on and on.

Beside the stock and extended bolt handle, the other thing on the gun that i really wanted to change or dress up was the plastic barrel band. I wanted something a little more solid. So i opted to have my machinist duplicate a factory steel QB barrel band and, he also used my actual measurements of the existing barrel and air tube O.D.’s and crafted me one outta SUPER HIGH grade aircraft aluminum. I also had him make the band wider and thicker so he could add some grub screws. He did just that and said that he used some grub screws that grab but don’t mar unless you crank em like your the hulk. He machines custom high performance engines for a living and airguns as a side business so i said hey, what ever you say, i trust. I also told him to just leave the barrel band that he was making unfinished and that i would simply paint it myself. The flat black matte on the gun is one of the features that i love about it. I like the flat black over bluing any day. All in all, the barrel band performed very well and it simply felt more solid than the stock one. This is just he initial testing as i have some more MINOR painting to do to it.

Stay Tuned!!
