Finally.. My new guns





I walked in the door today and there was a stack of three boxes for me! It was awesome. In one box, an Evil Pimp that I traded for my Facemelter 98 custom.. In the other box, a 98 custom pro with a WAS board that I traded for my PS2.. The other box had some Ground Pounder Pro sliding shorts and Eclipse Elbow pads. It was the best day of mail ever.. I shot the Pimp a little bit and can't say I'm tooo impressed though.. It feels nice but I have to complain about the kick.. It is way more than my Ion.. I also included a size comparison because the Pimp is a big piece of material.. It really isn't that heavy though suprisingly.. The 98 custom is now my current project gun. It has a WAS board, Fang trigger, bob long torpedo reg, lightened hammer and sear spring, and rear cocking.. I'm gonna mill a centerfeed in it, smooth the front grip, fill in the cocking slot, the usual. Then put a paintjob on it.. It's gonna be awesome.. How's it look??

Looking good. Nice little collection you have there.

Where did you trade your PS2 for a 98 Custom Pro with WAS board? I should do that.

The nation of course.. I gave the dude my PS2, GH2, four other games, a guitar, and a regular controller.. The gun even came with a 10 piece Empire Kit. The kit is kind of lame cause it comes with less backs than the 7 piece came with. It has 5 backs and 5 fronts and I'm probably only gonna use 1 or 2 fronts.. O well it looks sweet.

Yeah, the reason your Pimp has so much kick is probably because its not tuned correctly yet.  Its basically an aftermarket impulse, but its probably MUCH lighter, so its going to have some kick.  Its also not a spoolvalve like the Ion is, which makes a big difference.

IMHO, I liked the Facemelter better. C'mon, it has Facemelter written on it!
