A couple of people asked to keep this updated, so I figured I would proudly oblige. Here is what is was looking like last time......
 
 
And here is where we are as of today:
 
 
 
 
 
Plans:
Sleeper Pneumatics completely inside frame -- Rethinking this
Luke's Vert Feed Mod - Done
Rail Milling - Done. ish.
Custom made aluminum grip panels --- Done - Deciding whether to polish or keep rough.
Lots and lots of polishing........ --- Neverending.
 
Hope you like.

LOL. yeah, I don't think I can get it quite that small, but paying more to the homage to the shiny aluminum look. It does have a minimag body though... oh, wait.

Thought I should post that the aluminum grip panels were actually machined by Lukes Customs. He does solid work and should get credit where credit is due.

I agree 100%.  (Both on it being amazing and keeping the panels rough.)

Look into an RTPro, Retro Valve or Emag valve with Lvl 10 bolts. They can be had for much less. I picked up a Retro w/lvlX for $110 and an Emag valve w/lvlX for $130 shipped. Both have the RT effect you are looking for. You will might also have to find an adjustable reg. The Emag valve I have RT's pretty decent with the 850PSI tank I have, but the Retro needed an adjustable valve that I coudl crank up to >900 to get it really cooking.

I like the longer JJ barrel in the first pic, haha. I also especially like the valve and gas-thru grip.

Haha, I just remembered I still have some Mag parts in a box in my closet. Need anymore? Ha

To be quite honest, I truly love that barrrel, but it weighs a freaking ton. It's like carrying a howitzer onto the field.  PM me.

I would be freakin out if I had to go up against this thing on the field, just the intimdation factor of that gun is amazing. But you should work on the trigger of the gun, maybe something that looks like a proto rail roller. But thats just my opinion.
