Here my latest gun, the M-55 Mk1's little brother, the Mk2 ;) Same basic design, same ignition, fuel and venting unit, just a shorter chamber and barrel, different paint and grips. Enjoy! ...cause i sure do enjoy their sick bangs and solid recoil!! ;)

Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the Tombstone."...

Not bad! What's the ring on the barrel, custom part or some kind of fitting?
