Yea my mirror is dirty, what of it? 
My UL'D Dust Blue Shocktech DM5 
The critical trigger is kind of weird, but I guess I'll get used to it. I wish I could give more pics but I can't find my camera charger. Edit: Updated with better pics =P Edited by PaiNTbALLfReNzY - 20 October 2008 at 12:37pm |

Nice looking gun. Shocktech bodies are actually the only
one's I like, aside from DM3s. |

i lean a little more towards the shockteck style bodies, they keep the classic look of the matrix and give it subtle modern tweaks.

Looks like a massive version of the DM9 :P
... Well, I think atleast the milling on the back does. |

Took it out for a test run today, shot awesome. It's a bit of a gas hog, but it shoots pretty accurately.

I think Styro is being sarcastic and wondering why I didn't just buy a DM9. Reason being I always liked the milling on Shocktech's products, and really wanted this marker when it came out. Granted, I had no money at the time, but I was able to pick it up for $450 on mcarterbrown, so I'm pretty satisfied with my purchase

Actually, I wasn't. I don't play paintball anymore because all of the local fields closed and the closest one is over an hours drive away. I had no idea they made one every year. By the way, I've always liked the Shocktech DMs. Yours is no exception. |

My mistake. Funny story, I left it in my trunk on accident and the O-Rings on the spool valve expanded. GG. Hopefully I have some spares. Never doing that again.

Fixed the O-Rings, shoots great. Just ordered a Tadao Mikko Huttenen Yakuza board, so I'll be dropping that in this weekend. More pics to come.

Shocketech gats look awesome, and the DM series are nice guns in general.
Sweet buy. That is a sexy blue. |

Shocktech is still around, but they haven't done a real custom mill job since the Dm5, sans a new reg for each year's gun. It's just laser work now.
