Hello, Vaper from Sydney here and wondering if anyone knows of any simple authentic mods?
Specifically:
- no logo on tube
- 22mm
- Brass
- recessed switch
- no locking ring (preferably)

Mods like:
Anarchist (already own one)
MVZ (can't find a vendor who will ship to Aus)
GP PAPS (too expensive and hard to get)
Doomsday V1 (doesn't have a brass version)

any feedback would be appreciated

cheers

ah right haha forgot about the most obvious one

haven't got the chance to look at it first hand but just the magnets on the battery thing and reviews that either love it or hate it kinda make me not want to try it out... is it really worth the hype?

would prefer something with SS top and bottom caps but maybe im being a bit too picky...

I like mine quite a bit... but to each their own. If one adheres to your spec list, it narrows things down to not much. With copper being all the rage, not a whole lot of new brass mechs have been coming out.
Change one spec... and it would open up the selection quite a bit. Consider... any logo, particularly laser etched logo, is fairly easily removed. I can usually get a laser logo off with about 20 minutes worth of work... brushed or polished finish optional.

badly... its all about the copper unfortunately for me...

hmmm do I need a rotary tool to take it off or is it something I can do by hand? Do you have any good links on how to?

Was planning to get an authentic and didn't want to "mod" something I've paid $150+ for... but then again a clone would be much cheaper...

thanks for the input

Nothing fancy, just a GP PnB tool (or old cartomizer) to chuck into a drill press, some wet/dry sandpaper, grits 220 through 2000... followed by some good metal polish and a bit of Renaissance wax. A bit more complicated and time consuming if all you have is a hand drill (or no drill :eek: )... but still, doable.

Oh yeah forgot about Zen!,hmmm do you know if I have to order the Z2,2 first and then the tube or is it customizable?

@State O' Flux
ah I see.. haha unfortunately don't have a drill press... just a vice and a hand drill... honestly I was never good with working with metals so got a feeling it won't go to well but thanks for the info, maybe will try that technique on a clone sometime

Awesome mate looks sick :) cheers for the info will be waiting for some stock to come in!
hopefully mod makers will make less "brands" and flashy useless designs and more clean streamlined mods!

There's a logoless King 2 full brass and recessed switch, but 22.7mm and locking ring.

Funny you should say that, got one of those on the way from Fasttech. Can you say patina.

It's going to be my first one. I liked the no logo look for patina. I really didn't care about function.
