I believe this Crown Snorkel was listed for sale by Glade Spring a few years back, and someone listed it on FirePics. Just curious if any of the VA guys know if it is still for sale, or if they are still holding on to it.

Let me check with my contacts to see if they know anything about it. If not, I'll be passing through there in early March, and I'll let you know for sure.

That's an interesting setup, I don't think I've ever seen a top mount pump facing forward before.
