Title: the real deal
Post by: Ba5h on January 22, 2015, 08:13 PM

Evening chaps I bought a.pair of slam bars a little while back off the old bay but have been lookimg at them andam unsure if they are real or just stickered up as such. Is rthere any identifying features as the knurled paet seems a little out of shape too  :-\

and on a seperate note is there a way of telling old acs mags from newer ones  :daumenhoch: cheers in advance

Ok so they have been cut down to around 26 inches with a rise of approx 8.5 inchs and 10inch across the cross bar   ???


The pic sort of shows the slight change in.the knurled part it seems to be squashed slightly  :-\

They look like the real deal to me  :daumenhoch:

To be honest the slightly messed up knurling and wonky Slam Dunk decal make it even more S&M  :LolLolLolLol:

Is that a ridge in the knurled part?

If it is, its just where the stem has been over tightened and squashed it  :daumenhoch:
