1. Dead On X-Core 8 stage X-Chamber ( http://www.countysports.com/shop/product.php?productid=2011& amp;cat=281&page=1 )

2. Model 98 Titanium Hammer ( http://www.darkhorizoncorp.com/products.asp )

3. Dead On Rocket Cock II ( http://www.countysports.com/shop/product.php?productid=3008& amp;cat=267&bestseller )

 

Again this is for what you guys think i should get for my next upgrade for my gun. The titanium hammer that i'm going to get is the one on the top of the list at http://www.darkhorizoncorp.com/products.asp .

rocket cock.

Tippmann internals that are stock are best for you.

you have a remote, so a Expansion Chamber is kinda... worthless(unless you play in really cold weather.)  So, thats why I say Rocket Cock, plus nothing is more frustrating then when some one gets a lucky shot and nails you in the cocking slot. Also, keeps out mud and other stuff...


Have you thought about buying a Stock?

I suggest Special Ops stocks, they are the best (in my opinion)

Heres a page of them... my favorite are the folding ones.

Bi-pods are overgrown pieces of Crap.  I suggest not getting one. They add very little performance advantages and add alot of weight.

If I were you I'd go with an upgrade that actually helped you with performance. Stocs and bipods and all that crap are cosmetic upgrades that won't help you at all.


The expansion chambers useless to you because of the HPA... so that narrows you down to the rocket cock.

Or a new hopper, the one you have kinda sucks.

But he has a 20oz CO2 tank as well... the question is if he switches between both tanks during the day of play, and if it's worth investing in a x chamber instead of a... palmers stabilizer, perhaps. Of course, there's a huge price difference between the two.

^He uses a remote, which is kinda makes the expansion chamber pretty useless.

I'd go with a normal rocket cock and later on look into a stock.

Stop...seriously. You are acting 12.

Yes, the aluminum one is better for obvious reasons. The plastic one, people have had problems with it cracking, I have not since I carefully torque all of the screws on my gun. You have to weigh the difference in cost with how careful you are when you put your gun back together.

And who ever said it quiets your gun down "greatly" needs to lay off the weed a bit.

Forgot to mention, you also have to weigh how often you use your CO2 tank. The expansion chamber you listed is the MOST compatible with HPA, but it will still decrease your performance slightly. More or less the remote will make your tank both an anti-siphon and it also works as an expansion chamber.

Is it worth suffering in performance to have a SECOND expansion chamber which could hurt performance of your HPA?

The chamber might only be useful for the c02.

Rocket cock.
