Maybe you should get a wood wrap for the barrel to match the grips lol

Its a very interesting setup, there's no denying that. I like how the stock is on, plus the wood accents, but on the whole, the colors not only clash, they do outright war on each other.

I think it would look better with the black stock receivers. It doesn't look BAD right now, but wow....the color scheme makes it one of a kind.

Wood looks really bad with the realtree. Repaint it black!

I'm not a big fan of it. Nice work though.

Just another 98 with a bunch of bolt on, and an ugly one at that.

...Sometimes people should use the "back" button instead of the "Reply" button...honestly baffles me at times.

Faseofar, looks like you have put some thought into looks/performance to me, i.e. cyclone, stock, rocket, etc. Great start. Never been a real-tree fan myself, but it looks like a functional marker to me. Any future plans for her?

Alright i see that most don't like the color combination. I like the camo print on the gun, so i don't want to repaint the gun.  i also like the feel of the wood for the grips and stock. so my question if i was to re-stain the wood what color should i go with. i want to keep the grain of the wood. so no just paint them or go plastic.

Also for getting the wood wrap for the barrel, i have thought about the barrel that matches, but just can't convince myself that it is worth it. Also when the new Flatline barrel for the 98 comes out I'm thinking of picking up it, the one which allows you to just tread in the barrel.

I know Minwax has alot of colors to choose from i thought about ebony(a black) but wonder about a green color or a red would look any better.

But please feel free to give me some suggestions.

Also if there is any other parts i should look at getting for my marker. I've polished the internals.

My plans for the gun is... well right now not sure.

I'm not a fan of scopes on it, since i will never shoot with it, and just added weight. about the only thing i can think of is maybe just adding a light on it, but right now I'm just thinking of lashing on a light when i ever play a night game other wise i wouldn't need a light on it.

For other upgrades like blots, and power tubes. I'm just not sure if  they are worth it or not.

Finally I'm not sure what would be good to use/add for the gas line area. I really like my remote, but I don't know if a stabilizer would be any use or not. But please let me know thanks.

Don't change a thing based on the opinions of us. If you like it as it is, keep it. All we're doing is critiquing it based on our own opinions.
