    Posted: 19 June 2005 at 5:04pm

This is my 98 Custom:

double trigger, aluminum power tube/hyperstar bolt, low pressure kit, vigilante reg (low), shocktech drop w/ smart valve, evil pipe kit 14", dye stickies, evolution II w/ shortened feed tube

polished internals, milled letter, milled blowback vents, powdercoat on gun, anodized barrels, custom trigger job

the powdercoat and barrel matches better in real life, but the camera I used wasn't good, my other camera wouldn't upload, but hopefully I can get those pictures up soon

no rt or ebolt, I don't really like them, but if I ever get to the point where I need one I will buy an impulse or electronic cocker

Hope you like it

Yeah i hear the eggs dont feed as well with that elbow.  Don't the gills release a lot of air and lose velocity for the ball?

Not bad.  I kind of like the fade.  I like how it gets into a smoke type color.  Great upgrades too.

about the egg...i outshoot the revvy/aren't reliable enough to be honest and i plan on getting a cocker or impulse and need sumthing to kind of transfer before i get a halo.

and the gills...you don't lose any velocity or anything, it just helps feed the balls faster and have less chops because the blowback gases can bounce the balls just enough to chop or to just slow feeding down.  the reason you don't lose velocity is because the bolt closes so quick it seals off before sending any air out of the vents, but then when the bolt opens, it will lose that seal and some air will be released

You wont loose velocity/range with the vents, but you will with the hyperstar. It doesnt seal with the barrel loosing air that would normaly be propelling the ball. I noticed a large decrease in rang when I had it. The aluminum powertube is trash too. Some work ok, but sometimes they are machined too much and blowback gas for the bolt escape around it not recocking the gun.

Throw them away, theres nothing better than your stock internals! If I had a dollar for every time I sad that...

But its really a nice gun though! Havnt seen a 98 like that in a while! Looks really awsome.

Triggerhappy1 just to say, not to get in a fight or anything, but I have had this gun for 3 years and have tried every imaginable setup with the bolt/powertube, and this is the best.  I get awesome efficency and range.  If with a leak in my drop I still got half a case shot with one 20 oz.  SO i don't think they are trash, but everyone to their own opinion.
