zbart skull kit review

sup guys i got to test and review one of zbart's skull uc kit.
well im not very good at writing a review seeings as this is
my first one . but ill try to explain myself the best i can.
well got the pckage in the other day .



upon opening the package i notice that it was well packaged
and in the package their was the skull pump handle ,spring,
bolt , lock washer , and guide block . now i have to be honest
it wasnt in the best condition , their was a little oxidizing on the
guide rod , i think it was just the polish drying up .




i notice their was some grip tape on the bottom of the skull ,
which is very nice . he also put some black tape on the guide
block where the frame will rest on . i really like the attention to
detail on his kits.

heres a pic of the guinea pig


installation was simple and it should only take a minute to
install . but here is where it got sketchy . the spring that he
provided was a little long it seemed . its hard to explain but
when the guide rod goes into the skull , as the rod goes
in , the length of the spring tends to cause it to bind a bit .
so i cut off four coils and it was solved . i thought it would
make it too soft to return when aired up , but it didnt . it
was just right . the hole where the guide rod goes in was
cut nice and tight . after i polished the guide rod , it was
silky smooth .the pump kit does twist , but not too bad .
when mounted and all the bugs are worked out , its a really
nice kit and it does add some flair to the gun . i must stress
that the skull handle started to chip a little on the end
where the pump rod screws in . its not a big deal but limit
the removal of the handle . the thread will eventually strip
out . heres some pics
for you guys too enjoy










well as far as testing it out on the field , ill update my
review this weekend when i go to the field . but as
what i have so far , its looking very promising . i know
us hawaiians like to play a little rough ,if it can handle
a day in hawaii with our rough playing terrain , it can
handle anywhere. i think the kit should hold up from
looking at it . but oh i forgot !

heres a pic of the skull size compared to a stock
handle .



thanks for reading if i didnt bore you already . but on sunday
ill do my conclusion . so far looking good bro .
thank you

That phantom looked so pretty before. I don't like the skull. Looks ugly and uncomfortable.

They make remarkably comfortable grips for various items, actually. I haven't used a pump kit version, but I've had a shift knob that must have been cast almost identically to these, which I have always wanted to turn into a handle. While I can't entirely agree with the placement of the skull in these kits, I would certainly tilt my own down about 20 degrees, leaving the face directly forward.

In all honesty , I think it was a shift knob . Because I had one exactly like this in my chevy truck that I got from a shop in oahu . But who knows . The skull would look kool facing 20 degrees downward , because its facing straight forward . But hey it was practically a free kit to try out , so I can't complain .

+1 it's just bolted on....

A fully custom Phantom with skull motif would be cool.....but....

As long as you're happy with your purchase, and that's what matters
