Yeah, I've got the RocketCock II on order, and I'll be getting a Delrin bolt and Titanium hammer next month.  Then I'll go for the stock and maybe a remote line setup...  I'm more about function than looks.  Thanks for the comments.

keep your stock internals you can't get much better then those, get a firepower up or some other performance upgrade with a firepower upgrade get an electric hopper an egg or ricochet apache would be good they arent too expensive and you wont have to worry about outshooting it. or a stock and remote cuz lugging a 20 oz around isnt very fun and the screws get loose on the ASA and thats an annoyance

Ah, but if we were in the woods, with the leaves on the hopper, it wouldn't look like anything but the surroundings.  And that's the idea...

Well, actually I'm planning on doing the upgrades in three phases, based on costs...

1. Internals.  The Delrin bolt is awsome!  I play with some guys who recommend that upgrade.  I've also been doing quite a bit of research on the hammer and the Titanium hammer is supposed to make the gun a lot quieter.  The cost on these two items is pretty minimal, which is why I'm planning on doing them first.
2. Stock and remote line. For obvious reasons.  I'll also need a tank carrying pouch, since I don't have one on my existing "Bat belt".
3. Cyclone feed.  This is last performance upgrade I'm planning, since it's going to be the most difficult to install and it's fairly expensive.

I don't really do a high ROF, so I don't have a need for an e-grip or RT.  The only things I'm planning on doing to this gun, once the performance upgrades are finished, are cosmetic.  I might add a handguard, but that's not really a necessary upgrade.

Once I've got this one completely tricked out the way I want it, I'll probably save up my pennies and get an A-5, also in RealTree camo, with a RealTree camo flatline.

The titanium hammer doesnt make the marker quiter. I have one on my Pro/Carb, and about all it does is give reduced recoil.

Hmm... That's not what I've read.  Either way, I also like the reduced recoil idea.  Plus, it's cool to rattle off the kind of gear you have, eh?

Actually, I'm thinking of getting a Pro Carbine by the time winter comes around again and having Wookie at tacticalcamo.com do it up with the snow hardwoods pattern...



That would look pretty sweet.  But we dont' get much snow in Texas, so I'm not sure how much a necessity it would be.

If you're not going to shoot fast, forget the cyclone.
