With the exception of some cocking issues and grips (en
route), she's all finished. May look familiar to some of
you, as DeTrevni was
ever so kind as to "help out". I regretted selling my
first one, but this more than makes up for it. Don't
plan on parting with this for
a very long time, if ever. I really couldn't be any
happier with it. I may eventually try to get a hold of a
Freak kit with green AA
front, but other than that, she's golden. Enjoy!

Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good.

Cocking issues: I pump, it won't stay cocked. I think I forgot to let the hammer lug out and it's not catching.

Year: '98 I do believe.

Haters.

Maybe we aren't appreciating the fact that it is an AKA VLM?

Any color is a good color on one of these bodies. Especially the P-Block.

yeah, turn the lug in (clockwise) about a 1/8 turn till it starts to catch and then give it one more tiny twist just to make sure, then you should have a pretty light (non-existent) pull.

I like it... Didn't your other one have a stiffi and was black? That was
awesome. I vote get a gloss black paintjob and another Stiffi.

Yeah, it had a Stiffi but I sold it. Sure it was lightweight, but the CP I replaced it with shot just as well.

I sold the Stiffi because I got just as good of a performance out of the CP I replaced it with. They were the same bore and the only
difference between the two was the weight. Don't get me wrong, Stiffi's are nice barrels, but I got more out of it than I would have
gotten out of the CP.

Yeah, these ph00lz gave me crap about the green as well, except the way I had it set up was WAY greener than this! :D That green/black looks killer!

Oh, to everyone that's h8'n: Try and find a full-bodied P-blocked VLM. K GO!

I was even kind enough to hook Sin up with a Sniper-I low-flow valve. GREAT for CO2.

I just bought some 12g's last night, so if the temperature goes up a little outside, I plan on airing it up to see how she works.

DeTrev, how're the plans for your cocker project coming?

strikers_ego: I found this one on mcarterbrown.com. You can buy direct from CCM, but it'll cost you a pretty penny as they recently raised
the price tag on them. Check eBay too.

ammolord: The gun is a '98 I believe. I don't think DeTrevni was all that sure either about it.
