Project Custom : Half way there!

Ha, to answer that question:

I got the gun off of one of my teammates.  I was looking for a good deal on a A-5 for one of my buddies who was just getting into paintball, and along with the A-5 offer (only 40 bucks, I might add), He told me about this E-Bolted Custom he had. 

Once he said that, I told him how badly i've always wanted one, and it wasn't long after that that he gave me his price of $50....I nearly died. 

APPARENTLY, his step-brother ordered this custom with the ebolt and a bunch of other "goodies" with his parents credit card, WITHOUT them knowing...so, as punishment, they took the gun away from him.  A year or so down the road, my buddy was givin the gun as a gift. (Im not exactly sure how thats fair and all...but, whatever right?).

He left the marker sitting in the corner of his room, unused for probably something close to 2 years.  I think the only reason why he sold it to me for $50 is because he thought the board was capped.  Sure enough, it is firing alittle slow, but...thats only because the ROF was turned down.  I've got that covered now.

 

Anyways, sorry for the long post.  Warbeak, I cannnot thank you enough for the websites and idea.  You've probably sped up the completion date on this thing by probably a week or two.  Thanks!

That's because it is capped...at 13bps

*update*

Money has become a issue, considering I only work 12 hour weeks, and I am going to college.  (I mean, common, a NES controller for your emulator on your Laptop is much more useful in class then a paintball gun)

But, advancements were made today, i've lined up a older 2k2 intimidator Frenzy board, WITH the lcd screen for the grand price of 40 bucks.  Once I pick up a solenoid and some wiring harnesses, along with some eyes perhaps, i'll be movin quite nicely. 

Two-Way ram conversion MIGHT (might) be done sometime this week, depends on if I take the time to print out the instructions or not.  Also, planning on relocating the battery to the inside of the grip frame, and moving the on/off switch to the back of the grip, so that I can do away with that incrediable chunk of plastic that calls itself a battery case. 

Anyways, in any case, things are advancing finally.  I'll try to get up new pictures as it comes along.

where the he** do u pic up a tippmann with a e-bolt for $50? if i got 1 i would snag it and put it on my good 98c so i could play in tourneys
