Unfortunately none of the pics you've posted of this spider are ideal for making an ID. It also looks to me like it's immature, which doesn't help. Try getting a good dorsal shot (from the top down) to see if that helps. Did you get any information about it at all? Maybe a common name or where it's from?
Unfortunately no information was given to me. The guy that I got it from was moving out, so he also gave me other 5 of his Ts, female subadulte. But he gave me this one telling me that a guy gifted it to him but he can't help to remember the name. I saw some photos online and I think it's a juvenile L. parahybana, but he gave me his subadulte L. parahybana and I think he would remember if this was one that he already got.
Following because I have a mystery T that looked exactly like this and every other new world sling Mine molted next into a dark blue grey with pink setae and while I was told it's a wild caught aphono found somewhere in AZ, I've been joking that I got duped into getting another LP. It just molted again today and it's legs are way too long and disproportionate to be an Aphonopelma. Then again, I have no idea what I'm talking about. Mine looks like an LP though. Oddly enough, it put on more growth than my other LP sling and has now molted faster.
