^^Well, there ya' go. And look in the marker gallery for more pics; theres tons in there. And the Male might not look the best, but the performance defiantly makes up for that.

Ok. I was hoping it would be in the same position as this one on an A5. I think this one looks alot better.

^^If you want it closer to the trigger like on an A-5, then follow these directions http://www.geocities.com/tcxchris/foregrip.html.

Hmmmm...ok. One last thing.... What is the vertical silver cylinder directly in front of his trigger? |

Could either be a regulator or part of the LPK. My guess it's part of the low pressure kit, since he has an HPA tank on the gun...

^^That's the LP Chamber that comes with the LPK.

Gotcha. What exactly does an LPK change? Sorry for all the questions

LPK allows you to use alot lower pressure to operate your marker, when using HPA. The kit gives you (I think) a pressure chamber, a vertical adapter and a lighter bolt. Personally, I don't think it's necessary. Just get a Palmer's and set the reg to your desired velocity and your done. If you use CO2 with the Palmer's, you'll find that you increase your gas usage efficiency slightly, since you can now lower the pressure required to use your marker. Before I had my Palmer's, I got about 1100-1200 shots out of a full 20oz. CO2, now I get between 1450 and 1550 shots. It's a big difference, I know, but the last two times out, that's how many shots I went through before the infamous BBBUUURRRRRRPPPPPPPP!!!!

Ok, getting back on task here, I really am leaning away from the male stab. b/c i really hate how it looks and it looks like it will be harder to hold.

Yeah, I went for the female for two reasons...One..it's extremely easy to install. Just remove the stock ASA and put the female stab in its place (get the clamp kit for the 98). Two...I didn't like the idea of holding onto the reg, to support the gun, becuase the hose still comes out of the side of the reg, so you'd have to grab that, too, and that can get pretty cold if you decide to shoot fast.

Not that I don't mind answering your questions, but you could probably get all the info you need from http://www.palmer-pursuit.com. You could even call them at (916) 923-9676 and talk directly to Craig Palmer, himself. Their customer service is outstanding...They would be able to answer your questions alot better than myself...

I just bought the female stabilizer with the mounting ring kit... Stab: http://www.countypaintball.com/product_description.asp?item= 2492 Ring Kit: http://www.countypaintball.com/product_description.asp?item= 2603 Buy them seperate and not as a kit. For some reason it's cheaper.... |

Skitz = official n00b of the day is the mounting kit manditory for it to work or does it just help stabilize it better? |
