AFX Custom TCP Chassis
We found this AFX card of chassis' in a "collection" lot on ebay...upon closer inspection we discovered the rarest of the rare...
For Aurora to acknowledge and customize their own chassis parts for hop ups
made by a third party vendor is pretty cool....
The front end is notched and shaved flat at the bottom for the TCP screw guide pin and so that the pan lays flat, there are pre-drilled holes in the back of the chassis to use the screws in the TCP kit that secure the pan to the chassis.
This must have been somebody's pet project. I believe it pre-dated the Super 2 (or I guess they would have used that chassis with the brush tubes already installed). You can surmise from the way the blisters are cut at the top of each individual chassis that the part was carefully removed from it's blister, modified, and the replaced. I would suggest this was done by Tom Coyne himself...still running a very small business....
Here is an image of the Pro Pan brochure...4th item down refers to this very part!
