This man speaks the truth - a Syph custom is well worth it :tu:  I'm happy you finally got one...although it must have slipped through the cracks of that conspiracy...about which I know nothing :whistle:

I do not think I have seen your Syph custom.

Yes, I actually have two - the Mechaneer and the Rogue (Explorer: Monrogue Edition).  I may have posted pics for you a while back, as I seem to remember doing this for someone.  Maybe when you first joined :think:  Maybe not though.  I haven't had them for quite a while now though, as they're in storage, and the Rogueneer took over once I got that ;)

I remember now that you say something about them being in storage.

If you need somewhere to store your Syph SAKs let me know. I will keep them very safe, armed guards and everything.

Ha, I appreciate the offer buddy, but they're pretty safe anyway ;)  All this talk of various SAKs and MTs lately is really making me miss some of mine that are in storage.  I think I'll be making a trip to the unit tomorrow.  Only problem is the box containing those items is way in the back, and it is a mess to get through :ahhh

Nah I wouldn't bother with all that. You got the Rogueneer taking good care of ya.

Just give me the address and unit number and I will come dig them out for you when I get home. What are friends for if they can't help you out right?  :whistle:

Great minds and all that.

Ranger plus a Mag/Phillips layer is something I am very interested in making someday.

Quiet you. I know where you live and I may have miscounted when I put away the C-4.

As to just admitting a felony I am going to go with the just kidding defense.

Ranger plus a Mag/Phillips layer is something I am very interested in making someday.

So,  a Champion minus the fish-scaler...   Actually you might as well just get the Champion as the fish-scaler makes a handy pokey thing and a a passable cocktail fork. And you get Plus scales.

I highly recommend that you hold off on the Syph mod a bit.  Unless you have alot of hands-on experience with you may end up getting a mod you later find to be incomplete.  Better to use the Explorer for a bit as is and maybe pick up another model or two to play around with.

Then again, there is nothing to prevent you from getting another mod...  :P

Good point about not knowing SAKs so well. I am going to go with your second idea though because we all know more Syph SAKs are better.

Really like the Explorer I have to say. Would love one Alox mode.

Not to mention I have a NIB Yeoman on the way so it is complicated deciding what Syph combo to go with.
