I need to paint it, and get some grips but other then that she shoots like a dream... i forgot what kind of regulator that is so if anyone knows they should chime in

Interesting. I actually have an E-bolt project that I planned on modding to accept a cyclone as well. Would look better with a modded double trigger guard IMO.

We're not PBN.  (Congratulations, you managed to insult the entire forum with your first post.)

The marker looks kind of "Frankensteined," but, since I tend to appreciate that kind of thing I really like it.

Edit:  I have to disagree with oldpbnoob on one thing:  I think the saber-style hand/trigger guard is kind of cool.  (I know it's worthless as a trigger guard, but it is none-the-less quite eye-catching.)

yeah i know i copied and pasted the whole thread from pbn because i was to lazy to re-write it and then i noticed it too late... so my apologies to the whole Tippmann forum.
Thank you, the old model 98s came with a trigger guard that is molded into the gun its self and could not be replaced with an aftermarket one, so i had to remove it to accept the double trigger. I'm planning on painting it but i don't want to do black so maybe a white or something? anddd i have to find my grips, its been awhile sense I've looked for my paintball parts and ect.

I'm familiar with the M98. It takes some modding, but you can make double trigger guard from an 98C fit. You need a dremel/drill and some patience, but it can be done.

Keep the current trigger guard.  (Even if you do add a functional one.)  Furthermore, I think black with white skulls and crossbones forming sort of an urban camo pattern would be neat.  (It would also go well with the pirate theme started with the cutlass/saber-style trigger guard.)

The regulator is an older Palmer's Pursuit Micro Rock. Hence the Palmers logo stickered on it Wink

Looks sharp, definately needs a paint job though. I was never a big fan of cutting the gills like that...Just lets tons of dirt into the workings.

^^^ I think he means the reg attached to the front grip, not the rock.
