Hapalopus sp columbia?

Got this as a freebie when buying some Ts on Craigslist. They said it is a Chromatopelma cyaneopubscens. I am pretty sure it is a Hapalopus sp columbia. Can anyone confirm?
Chromatopelma cyaneopubscens don't have pink legs as a sling, I'm pretty sure. It looks like a hapalopus columbia sp large, but is lacking the markings on the carapace. Interesting!
 
@ediblepain It's a sling - the carapace markings need a few molts to show.

Yes, that's Hapalopus sp. 'Colombia large'. (H. sp. 'small' have dark femurs). Nice freebie!
 
It's a large, also a breeder told me the orange spots on the abdomen connect on the Lg, but not on the small. I've owned both, and have noticed this as well. I believe their markings are different ventral as well. There's a great post on this from a few years ago.
