Mmmm, Spam n' Reeses. *pumps shotgun* TJ, get my spam knife.  Cheesy

Here! *Tosses Manroon Spam Knife*

Now if you REALLY wanna customize that thing, put a Consular emitter on it, and call it the Arconsular!

*catches knife* Thanks. *shoots spambot and spreads to make sandwich* I'd do that, but I saw it in the guide and don't care for it. I'll be putting up pics of the combos I DO like tomorrow . Smiley

The Archon with just the choke looks kinda unique itself.

True, I liked that one too. Only problem was the grip was awkward and too low for the length. I think if I flipped the coupler and choke ( making the choke about a quarter inch higher) it would have balanced better. Looks very shiny and old republic that way too. Smiley

Nice customizations manroon. I like the super long customization, though it looks like it would balance wierd. Very cool!

Wow those are some cool customizations!  Great video too Manroon, it's kinda interesting to see a massive version of the Luke V2... and I just love that TCSS choke on it.  I love that so many US products are now MHS compatible, so many customization options!

Interesting!  Nice look, especially with the double ended male adaptor, I like it.  Question:  given the LED is below the choke and the choke is narrower than the blade, does the narrowing of the choke seem to cut off a lot of the light?

Peace,

I was worried about that myself when I got the TCSS choke and saw how much narrower the ID was.... it turned out to be an unfounded fear. Brightness does not seem to be affected! AND it even gets me back a little bit of the lost blade length the Archon's standard neck piece eats up. Something like half an inch to an inch, I think. Don't have it in front of me at the moment. lol

@Kham: Thanks! Glad ya liked it! And I agree, some of the combos were just ridiculous and rofl worthy to see and wield. What REALLY surprised me was how some of the more ridiculous ones actually kept their balance well! The super long and the Luke especially. They look like they'd be terrible, but the balance was actually quite good. lol
