It's been a while since I last visited NH... dropped off right about as the Recon was released, though my fervent modifications stopped around a year earlier.

I'm here because I got an e-mail that I had a private message here... So I figured I'd check around at the posted Recon mods, and see if anyone had done what I've been working on yet.

Nope, they haven't. I've got a Recon that just needs some epoxy putty and to be put back together (silly me thought I'd test it without the epoxy putty... and its spring assembly decided it would rather chill on the other side of the room), for one heckuva badass Recon.

I post this so that maybe I will have some reason to get off my duff and finish the darn thing. Y'know, expectations and whatnot, though I know that's not usually well-received here.

And then the Vulcan came out, doing away with my desire to recapture the Razorbeast of my childhood dreams. Oh, the plans I have for that $50 beauty... price tag being the main reason I haven't dived in yet. But that's a different topic.

I'm afraid, due to the exceedinly long timespan since I started and my (hopefully inevitable) completion of this mod (can it really be more than a year?), that I won't be able to offer step-by-step instructions with photos as I usually do.

Still, NH, hold me to this! I'll have it for you by Thanksgiving, gosh darn it!

But enough ramblings - as it is, it will be at least a month before I can get back to my Recon, so let me conclude with this:

The Recon's gimmick was that its "modularity." I have yet to see a mod that preserves the modularity of the barrel, stock, and primary gun pieces, while improving each one in its own right. I sought to rectify that, and succeeded, minus epoxy putty. See you 'round Thanksgiving.

I bought Kohls.com's last two AirTech 2000s.
