Help Identifying Joint

Hey guys, new here, so let me know if this is the wrong section. I recently picked up this custom cue, and don't know who the maker is. Also, I have never seen this particular joint before, and I'm having trouble identifying it. Any help is appreciated.

uni-loc

uni-loc that some one didn't cut down by the looks of it. I would think you play hell finding an insert for the shaft. No clue who used that kind of pin, but someone else might know.
 
So if it is in fact a uni-loc joint that is not cut down all the way, what are the chances a shaft with a uni-loc joint would fit it?
 
my guess is pretty slim. I'm no expert on uni-loc or cue building, but all the uni-loc that I have seen, is about 3/4 of an inch of pin, and near exactly that in the insert in the shaft.
If you could, post a few pics of the whole cue, someone else might be able to identify the maker and tell you more about it.
 
I think it's Accu-Loc

That looks like it's definitely it. Thanks for the help.

Does anyone know if there are any performance shafts out there with this joint? I did a quick search for Predator and Meucci and didn't see any. I'm trying to avoid getting one custom fit.

Thanks.
 
Just seeing if anyone might know of a place to grab a predator shaft with this joint already installed. Or, if there is another joint with similar threads that will fit, that would work too.
 
Actually predator shafts exist in that joint but they're a lil bit more expensive. This joint is mostly used by cues within the BCE group like Riley, Kruger, etc...

Kruger is the one that makes the Ortmann cues and on the german stratos website, predator shafts can be found for that joint.

I hope this helps.
