Regrettably you cannot get the skull grips on an E-grip. The only way to get them on there is to get the J and J aluminum Frame then attach them from there.

That would force you to have to lose your E-grip, I had the same problem. The only solution is to mod an E-grip into the J and J frame which would be quite difficult but possible.

What can I say positive that hasn't already been said.....

I gotta know though, where did you get the sling rings? Or is that a custom job you did yourself?

I want some.....

The rings are a mod that I expanded on. Here's the link to show you how you could do it too:

Bring on the gun criticism, the only way to get better is to eliminate all faults.

Oh, and I now have a Barrel Kit, Paintjob, and Response Trigger is on it's way. I'll take new pictures sometime soon.

It does lock in place when horizontal. When folded, like you asked, it doesn't lock. The spring tension on it is strong enough so it won't fall and pop you in the mask though.

Why would I get rid of the stock? I have a Uni-Mount and it's working well where it is.

I really never saw the point in telling someone to get rid of something.

Do you find the stock gets in the way when folded up like that? I'd be afraid I'd bend the thing or snag it on something. The sling ring on the side is VERY nice. Good addition.

The drop is the only thing I'm not fond of.  Being a mil-sim player, they just scream 'speedball' to me. Personal preference and all that.

The grips grew on me, I must admit. I haven't checked their site out yet, but I'd like them more in a blue-ed look or black with highlights instead of the silver.

See some people like the grips, some people hate them. It's cool though, It's not a bad thing to hear thanxs for posting nonetheless :).

The grips being overkill? Uhhh maybe. They're alright, you can't see them when I play because my hands are over them so it's mainly just for the pictures. Lot of questions about them though. And as far as I know they only come in that color, they're not tainted any other colors like blue or smoke, at least not yet.

I understand the drop philosophy, I don't really fall into the Milsim or Speedball catagory, so I have a hybrid marker. I just got the drop because it helps to balance my gun and make it not so long, that's all. Got a Uni :), that's not speedballish.

I like to hear everyones opinion so don't be shy, bash, compliment, suggest away!

Nice marker Greedy. As for changing your marker
around....why not!? Change is good!

I like it. The skull grips are cool and I like the stock.

it reminds me of one of those wild choppers those
dudes build on TV.

put a uni mount on it and lose the stock unless you play woods but it looks like a speedball setup take off the flatline and put your kit on it i dig the grips you can do whatever you want with you gun though nice job

Obviously school is in your case too. It's "waste".

Well I'm glad I don't have a mil-sim.

I do have a different barrel, I went with a Karnivor Kaner Kit made by Worr Games (WGP). I'll get some pictures of it up after I put my gun back together.

Thanx for the comments!
