Its up to you on what color you want, but get rid of that handle, it would look alot better without it.

I'd say, paint it black, ditch the Sight Rail, and get rid of the viewload Quantum and get a Revy.

the sightrail is mainly for looks. its pretty much useless, but give it a milsim look. the hopper is a Halo TSA which i am very satisfied with. i may take off the tiggerstripe cover so its just black. i would take of the x-chamber, but i cant find a good mag kit to replace it. know any sites? opsgear has no 98 mags, neither does engler.

i think you should also replace that steel braided line wit macro so that way you can cut it to a real short length n stead of loopin it round like that, makes it look weird when u do that.

i had macro, but i failed on me and ruined my day. so i dont think ill use it again. if i get a mag kit i can turn that fitting around, send the line strait upwards, and use shorter steel braided.

lightly sand it, put a bonding primer, paint it, then bake it (everything removed of course) at 215 degree F, for 10 minutes. that will bake out any leftover non-paint elements and give you a super hard finish that should last a long time. just painting will end up being a maintenance coating.

good luck.

i copied and pasted your link. the site came up and everything, but its all blank and the only thing there is "Results: <-  2  3  ->" when i click each one it takes me to a blank scree. its also blank when i click "98 Mag Kits". i guess i can try making my own from a cheap ar-15 mag.

what kind of paint should i use? im thinking flat or semi-gloss black rustolium.

Theres a reason why it didnt come up, they discontinued it and because it made any 98c look like a toy from Toys R Us...go here http://www.englerpaintballguns.com/engler.htm scroll half way down and you'll see it, Englers' 98c mag kit is way better than Opsgear's cheesy mag kit.
