 Topic: My 98 for the ’08!Posted: 30 March 2008 at 9:35am |

When I first joined this forum back in '02, my marker, just as everyone else's is when first starting out, was stock with the exception of a 14" J&J Ceramic barrel. As far as I was concerned, it was "The BOMB!", lol.
But of course over time we get an upgrade here and there. I fought many a battle with this rig and it served me and my team well. I'll miss the ole' gal.  
Solid Rubber Foregrip(I forget what company) System-X .45 Sticky Grips JCS Combat Folding Stock Lapco Raised Sight Rail 14" J&J Ceramic Barrel Ricochet 2K Hopper BSA Red-Dot Scope Double Trigger For my return to the field however, I decided to just pretty much go balls to the walls with my marker. I've missed much in the last 3 years and when I came across all of the new upgrades/technology available for my 98, I thought I'd died and gone to paintball heaven! So without further ado, my version of a Tippmann AK-47.

Looks good. Nice balance of aesthetic and functional upgrades.

Heyas everyone, I made a change out to the X7 hopper for the lower profile and a more sleek look for my AK. It does stick out a little more than I'd expected, but whatever. I also came up with an idea for a cocking handle utilizing an AK-47 round(7.62) and I can't say I'm disappointed by the way it looks. And just so you know, the thing's inert so there's no danger of any kind. I'm sure I'll be approached in the upcoming scenario I'm going to this Sunday.
 I test fired in the back yard to see how well the handle would hold up and it seemed ok. It even stayed level as it cycled, didn't look goofy at all like it were tumbling. If the bullet wasn't in it, just the jacket, you'd think it were ejecting the spent casing; looks very cool. One question before I go, has anyone played with the RPS Big Ball's from Wal-Mart? I had two break in my barrel. Do they suck or did I just get a crappy batch? Enjoy the pics.

I'd personally lose the double trigger. I hate it when people use double triggers on mil-sim markers. Otherwise they look good.

That double trigger's been on this marker longer than you've been a forum member.

Hehe yep, it took me a couple of days to get used to it myself, but every element of this gun serves a purpose and creates the "same, but different" look I was after. There's a lot of players with an "AK", but I wanted to make sure that when put side by side with another of it's ilk, mine would stand out as good as money could buy by way of looks and functionality. There's nothing here that's purely for looks. Sure it's pretty, pretty #&*%@ dangerous! |

Well, I tried out my upgraded gun in the field and for the most part it worked out real well, except for the SAW stock. I $&#*@% HATED IT! All I could think about was, "Why did I sell my JCS?!". Anyways, I bought a fixed wire stock, really nice, new grips since I went back to a single trigger, and a star-fire bolt. I figured, what the hell, might as well see for myself. This should be the final look, but I am considering another rail to raise my sight and to fill in the gap.
My 1st YouTube video. Not the best, but it'll get better. Enjoy!   Edited by techietaichi - 17 July 2008 at 10:12pm |

I like how it looks now. You now look like a tactical fashion Concious PSC with their Gear Whorish looks and CDI (chicks dig it) doctrine.
