Looking good Leon! Good luck getting the basement warmed up - I use ours for spraying too, and it's in permafrost at the moment...

Evening fellas! Made some good progress in the past hour and a half .Finally got this primed and going to let this cure for at least 24 hours before I handle it for pics as the basement was still a little cold. Stay patient guys. |

Primer gives me the warm fuzzies, very nice.
That thing sure looks like a Leo2A4, wonder if there's any real reason for that......

Thank you Russ! Can't say on the Leo look alike.I can tell you the replacement barrel is for a Leo 2A5/2A6. |

Didn't even think to look for aftermarket Leo barrels when I built mine...now I know!

Dupes, the only difference between the kit and Leo barrel is it doesn't have the canvas cover near the mantlet.

Hope it looks ok when I get it done.
