Yea I saw that Reflex on eBay as well. Was considering bidding on that, but all my gear is blue/grey/olive, and the Red would look kinda weird. But it's still a sick Reflex.

That is a nice Dye. I really havent seen a cocker i dont like. I only have a trilogy but it is true, cockers are so smooth, accurate, and just fun. Any special plans for this one?

Well I'm taking it to a proshop today to get some assistance with timing the 3-way, probably get a stiffi barrel kit for it, new ASA and LPR, but other than that I want to keep it stock. Maybe I'll throw a pump kit on it in a few months, who knows

Woot! It came in the mail yesterday! It's pretty hawt, although there are a ton of chips in the ano. Grips are hard as rocks, so I'm getting some Dye Stickies mailed in. I bought a gloss black CP shorty reg, which works out well because I tried the regular size and it looked way too big. Then I decided the Duckbill ASA it came with was ugly (and just annoying) so I switched it out with a CP On/Off with rail (Both blue).
Now I just need to attach the macroline fittings, secure the macroline, and time it. I fiddled around with it for a bit yesterday, and realized I completely forgot how to time a cocker, although PBNation has been helpful with step by step instructions on how to do it. Also, I'm considering having the Ano redone, and I'd like to go with the same fade but with a gloss finish vice powdercoating. I don't know if that's possible, but if it is I'd definitely pay the money to have this marker look like new again. Edit: Oh yea, and when I took it to the local proshop yesterday someone tried to buy it from me! Maybe it was DeTrevni in disguise!? Edited by PaiNTbALLfReNzY - 29 January 2009 at 10:41am |

What kind of anno are you thinking about?

|

Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good.

DON'T MAKE IT GLOSS!
Those cockers look so much better in the dust finish. |

Well, I tried to time it by myself, and failed epically. I'll probably take it to another proshop after work today, I have a habit of screwing up my marker even more when I'm trying to fix it. Not a good habit at all.

Well, it was easy until I got to the actuating rod(is that right?) because I guess Dye Hinge Frames and PMP's are weird?

haha, the lpr you want just enough to be able to cock the gun, and maybe just a little past that to make sure.
all of this is best done with the gun aired up (NO PAINTBALLS DONT SHOOT TEH HOUSE FOO), so you can check everything as you adjust it. |

Ok. Bad News. The fail person who owned it before me put the 3-way hoses on backwards. Front hose is on the back, back hose is on the front. Hence why the gun (when aired up) just locks the bolt back and won't fire. Is there a quick way to fix this or do I have to buy new hoses?

You could just swap the hoses, but that may weaken the connection between them and the barb. I'd just get new hose, but swapping should be a decent temporary fix.

So were the hoses actually on backwards, or was the timing just completely off?

The hoses were correct! That charleton-deceiver at the proshop can eat his own words. My timing rod was just over a quarter inch too far forward. So yea, pretty far off. But it's fixed now! Haven't put paint through her but was dry firing a bit and she sounded great! |

If I'm not mistaken, I believe that's what I told you.
Seriously though. If you ever need help, don't hesitate to ask!

Yea I would have fixed it earlier, but my STMD5 just broke as well, and was more keen on fixing that before timing my UL. At least I have one working gun now
 .
Oh yea, my STDM5 might have a blow noid. Constant leak from the trigger frame. I'm hoping it's just a bad o-ring though. I swear it's been nothing but problems since I bought it. Maybe I'll have to let it go one of these days if the right Excal or Viking comes my way. Edit: And yes, once again, all credit to DeTrevni! Edited by PaiNTbALLfReNzY - 11 February 2009 at 1:58pm |
