Here's the first Evo I ever owned. Bought it off of Dirty Dave Pastore from Strange. It had 'CASH' laser engraved on the side of it and his number '22' on the feedneck.
Here's my teammates old Evo. It was stolen during a shady online deal back in the day (unfortunately)
Here's the one I currently own, super smooth and 100% original.
Not too many people held onto those front grips. Still planning on getting it anodized?
Still undecided I think. I don't want to regret not keeping it original at one point, but a nice ano and/or polishing the guy would be sick. Maybe in a few years I'll come across a nice all original one when they're not going for so much.

Keep it original and wait for a 'lost' body to come your way. That anodizing is my favorite Belsales offered, by far. Getting another one also gives ya the option to use the exact parts you want instead of having that attachment that comes with original markers and their stock parts. So please keep it the way it is, and hopefully sell it to me one day.

I would guess around $200 give or take. You have one of the bodies that were between milling styles. It had the new style milling, but it's still on a 99 spec body. Some people might prefer that, because some believe the quality/tolerances of the bodies went down with the 2k+ series.
2k+ Dust black Evo X. The only non original parts are the ccm feedneck and aka pump arm.
100% restored Dust silver 98 Evo. Dr. Jekyll. Completely rebuilt original brass ram, brass angry 3 way, and belsales evo spec sledgehammer lpr. It also has a belsales roller sear and an aka lpc. Internals are 100% original belsales valve and rex dialer. Reg is air america messiah.
Flattened 3 way actuator rod and some good timing lowered trigger pull to 3mm. Fastest mech slider I have.
100% modified Dust black 98 evo. Mr Hyde. Belsales Angry frame with aka trigger plate, shocktech trigger pants and belsales roller sear.
gloss black angry 3 way valve
gloss black eclipse nexus ram with qevs and eclipse dart lpr. Shocktech lpc.
The belsales venturi bolt was milled out and lightened for better air flow by pbalien73. The internals are a shocktech phat hammer and an aka tornado valve. My regular shooter, and probably favorite Evo.

Early 2k Dust blue Evo X (serial number dates the body to 98). I added an aka trigger plate with shocktech trigger pants and belsales roller sear. Pump arm is aka.
100% original pneus. I added a pre2k shocktech lpc. Even though the Evo X is designated a 2k release, it still has a pre2k front block.

The 99 spec rightfeed bodies with the 2k+ milling are my favorite. If you ever want to get rid of that guns please let me know! I'd trade a very nice roundbody Merlin for it too.
Beautiful guns. I have always loved Evos but stupidly bought a Dye Reflex back in the day(just put a full Belsales front end, Rex and valve on it but its still no evo). there is just somthing about the Evo milling that is just so classy.
