Hmm... You could drill a hole through the marker-end of the stock, and then route a slot in the side of the stock to make it side-cocking (attach a cocking handle of some sort to the rear cocking rod). That aside, I've no ideas. I don't know anything about LPKs, so I'm just going with modifying the stock to make it work. But there's probably a better, easier way.

my friend did that exact thing and it didnt work cuz the extension was rubbing on the hole, he didnt want to make the hole any bigger either cuz of water and sand (obvious)...unless you drill a PERFECTLY straight hole, it will end up rubbing and screwing up

Get rid of the stock, or switch to a t-stock that mounts to the bottom of the grip frame. Sorry, it's either LPK or Stock.

Do what your friend did (and I suggested ), widen the hole to prevent  friction, and get a BT SBS or rocket cock to cover up the hole again. Problem solved.

I stand corrected!
Snake, please, fire away!
Really. This is a worse case then I've seen in some time.
I didn't feel like reading the whole thread, was DeTrev successful?

     You can always lighten the factory rear bolt and put a lighter spring in it so that it will act just like the LPK rear bolt does.

QFT.

You could also drill a hole into the side of the LPK bolt for a cocking handle, but that might make it too light.

um i see you getting your post count up with your useless comments, by putting in your 0.02 with your bs comments that help in no way what so ever.

and allso you got a serious hardon for hammerhead and warsensor barrels <- and no one cares. and by the way snake know's everything more then you and is pointless to try and win an argument against him.

You are not a sniper. You are what spec-ops has led people to believe is a sniper. Spec-ops did not invent paintball. They simply created their so-called player positions as a way to sell people horribly overpriced equipment that they "need" to be a sniper, or rifleman, or whatever it is they feel. Spec-ops are a business, and no matter what they claim, they don't love the sport. As people, maybe they do. But their company has not done anything to help. You are NOT a sniper. The word sniper has existed before paintball. It has a definition. I'm not talking about the "concealed shooter" definition. I'm talking about the meaning of sniper that involves range. You aren't one. Noone is in paintball. Call yourself a sharpshooter. Call yourself a marksman. Don't call yourself a sniper. I'm not trying to insult YOU. I'm just saying that you have bought into a business strategy. Spec-ops are by no means an official governing body.

P.S. That entire post is based around the Spec-ops sniper definition, which is what everyone seems to base things on. Pardon the assumption if it's incorrect.

The feeling is probably mutual.

. . . its in my signature . . .

So it must be true!

. . . what my mind set is and no one will change it, . . .

You don't have to change it; you can think whatever you want.  However, other people can think whatever they want as well.  Sometimes different people will hold diametrically opposing views on certain subjects (such as paintball sniping).  This is called a disagreement.  When disagreements occur on the internet, debates often ensue in which each side tries to argue their specific viewpoint.  Sometimes this is done by essentially saying "I'm right just 'cause I'm right," but more often facts and logic come into play.  You've had it easy so far; no one has actually broken out the big guns when it comes to facts/logic yet.  However, if you continue stating your belief in paintball sniper's someone eventually will.  At that point if you fail to provide a successful fact/logic based refutation you will end up just looking silly.  Don't expect everyone to agree with you on this point just because you say it's so.

. . . im a very talkative guy and i mention those barrels b/c i like them, they work extreemely well...sorry just cuz i dont have 1000+ posts doesnt mean i cant tell people whats good and what isnt, . . .

Feel free to state what is good or bad but keep in mind some people will disagree and they have a right to state their opinions as well.

. . . sorry for saying guns look good, sorry for saying guns look bad, sorry for giving people advice, sorry for giving my 0.02 cents about things i find mildly conversational, . . .

You are forgiven.
 
. . . i dont like flatlines or apex's as much as warsensor or hammerhead... . . .

I'm not a fan of the Apex, but a correctly utilized Flatline can be quite formidable.

. . . whoopdy ing doo batman, thats my OPINION, is that not what a forum is for??? voicing opinions, giving koodos and advice???

Of course, but others can do the same.
