Well , several beat me to it , went for Clean lined performance . Still dripping paint from last  "Field Test "

[url="http://www.hunt101.com/?p=242374&c=564&z=1"][/url]

Specs are: 

JT 14" Stainless back .688" barrel (Black baked Enamel)

Polished internals , BSA Red Dot sight 30MM

Halo B with refinements  (Thanks Rico's Revenge !!)

Trigger overtravel stop (1mm travel , Shortened)

 Modified sear engagement surface

Heavier Sear spring , Shortened Power tube (1/16")

RD Vertical feed , Surface ground recievers mating surfaces

Mods to come :

Blowback porting of CVX valve

Double trigger (May copy SmartParts Touch trigger ,if I go electric sear tripper )

Epoxy painting of the Halo , with custom Logo

Currently shoots at 13 BPS without any electronics , it may go faster , but I cant pull the trigger that fast !!

The paint at the vert feed was a result of having too much preload on the ball stack , (Blender Time !! )

Why do you have a scope on it if it's centerfed?

The Ups are on the inside , I am trying to keep this , totally Mechanical , and come as close to 20 BPS as It can go ....

And with the Red-Dot "Sight" , you can leave the front lense cover on , and still sight thru it , it works , believe me !!

Zero Magnification , it just puts a red dot in your field of vision , where the paintball will land .

When you keep both eyes open, one eye can see the target while the other see's the red dot. The brain will super-impose the dot on the target so you essentially get the same effect as if the marker were side- or power-fed and using one eye.

You could get an offset sight-rail. It looks good so far. I think a double trigger would look good. Good job so far!

Whyd you shorten the powertube?

Good mods, maybe you could do something to the outside.

Might do some milling to the body , similar to what I did with my other 98 (lettering , and rear sight) .  

The power tube was just a hair too far forward , the balls deflected off of it on the way to bottoming out in the chamber .

Thanks for the comments !

Will do a Thread on the internals , and mods (hopefully stickied) when gun is tuned and flawlessly performs , disclosing tricks ,mods and how-to's .

The hopper wont be red forever , think Red Spider (blackwidow) .

Marker is still a work in progress , a LOT of finishing touches , and Fine tuning to do yet .

I hand ground the sear to match the angle of engagement of the rear bolt . this alone took about an hour and a half , after I spent 2 hours making the jig on a mill . Even with the heavier sear spring , the trigger pull is Much lighter and crisper than stock , almost at a par with an electro , but not quite .

Watch that you don't grind the top edge of the sear too sharp. If you do, the end will start to chip. Trust me, it's happened to me.

Good luck on the project!
