Looks pretty good. I would just be worried about snapping the LPK off because of the way it attaches to the gun.

What I mean is that if you were to dive/slide and have the LPK make contact with the playing surface, I would worry that the fitting
would bust, since it is lower than normal.

Looks good, how fast is it? I saw a video of a Facemelter and it was pretty sweet, just curious as to whether or not this compares.

I have not upgraded the E-Bolt yet (2-way ram, new board, etc) so it still
shoots at 13 bps. At some point, I will upgrade it.

As for the fitting, it seems pretty sturdy to me. Worst-case-scenario I will
have to buy a stronger one, but I'm not too worried about it. Besides, I would
have to snap my barrel first before that happens.

Sweet, good work bro.

I wonder if there will be any shootdown when you get to higher bps.

I'm wondering the same thing, but so far, so good. I shot Palmer's an email about it last friday and am still waiting for a response.
