alright well here is my 98 custom, she has over gone a new paintjob, because the green one just wasn't working for me and it wasn't holding up well. So i painted it white...which the paintjob still isn't holding up that well. Oh well here it is.

First one i'll show you is one with the flatline on it
http://www.hunt101.com/showphoto.php?photo=179055&sort=7&thecat=500&password - http://www.hunt101.com/showphoto.php?photo=179055&sort=7 &thecat=500&password =

and then second one is with the rear cocking that i recieved today in the mail, and my jj ceramic on it.
http://www.hunt101.com/showphoto.php?photo=183775&sort=7&thecat=500&password - http://www.hunt101.com/showphoto.php?photo=183775&sort=7 &thecat=500&password =

specs are-
polished internals
rear cocking
double trigger
dye sticky 3's
halo b (i know it's overkill but i was getting an ebolt before so i knew i'd need it, and even though now i'm not it i still like the halo)
jj ceramic/flatline
switched sear spring with pen spring...worked for a while but the double firing every now and then just didn't work for me, i'll try it again sometime though.
milled rear site
milled off tippmann
expansion chamber
psycho ballistics bullet drop

that's all for now, i don't think i'll be adding a whole lot more to it, i like it this way nice and simple. I don't like the response trigger all that much, and i don't feel like buying the ebolt anymore, i'm not looking for all that fire power. And my old nitrogen tank just was an annoyence (sp) with all of the leaks that it had in the gas lines.

please rate 1-10 and any comments are welcome.

Thanks,

A.F.I

looks good.

a unimount or rail would really clean up the look, and make it less tall.

no nitro?

looks aite, why the blue grip?

trigger mods anyone. lol the sear spring problem is everyone make the sear spring too light so the hammer slips off the sear causing double fire or full auto. i get some measurement for my prospring mod so everyone can have a good sear spring yes?

id rate it a 8/10

very nice hows the rear cocking kit? where did you get it?county paintball used to have them

thanks for all of the comments,

evil no nitro...for now i just don't have the money, i'm thinking palmer stabalizer then nitro.

youm0nt the rear cocking's good, there was this felt washer that came with it that i couldn't get to fit in right, so i just left it separate for now because i have had no problems so far. I got it straight from tippmann, i looked around for a  while and i couldn't find many places to buy it from, and county doesn't have them anymore.

I like your 10" J & J(if that's what it is). It looks like the perfect speedball size.

I actually like the white. 9/10. You can get the Full Boar Rear Cocking System from here for $21.88. http://www2.888paintball.com/product.asp?plid=PARTS&icid=TIPPMANN&scid=98&csid=73629028632959079057677025970482188017502738371092&code=05%2D2%2DTPI+M98+D+FB%2D01&xt=br - http://www2.888paintball.com/product.asp?plid=PARTS&icid =TIPPMANN&scid=98&csid=73629028632959079057677025970 482188017502738371092&code=05%2D2%2DTPI+M98+D+FB%2D01&am p;xt=br

I really don't care for those because it made an awful "ding, ding" noise. That might have been just mine though!

thanks for all of the responses, and to everyone who thought the jj was 10 '' it's a 12'' and is perfect size i think.
potato- rear cocking basically just makes it so you can cock it from the rear...it covers up the cocking slot so you won't have to worry about paint and other debris getting in there, but for me it's mostly for looks.

How do the Dye Sticky 3 grips fit? Did you have to cut them at all for them to fit correctly? I really want to get some of those for my 98C...they look so awesome.

Just get a 90 dollar aluminum nitro tank. Then get R/T, do you play tourneys?

Very nice, that rear cocking is awsome.  8/10

I think to make your gun look really sharp would be to get some more white in there, maybe get the tip of your j & j with a little white to black fade, then it would look really nice.  That blue sticky grip doesn't really flow with the rest of the gun , I'd get a black one to make the gun look all together but whatever you like.

Nice job!

Thanks for all of the comments.

Teamviruscap98-i used a metal file...and well just filed until it was all gone. i had to bondo up some spots because i made a little gash in it but it turned out pretty smooth. and i just used spray paint that i picked up at home depot, but i would like to look into some good paint because the paint i have right now does not hold up very well.

theninjamdc- yeah i cut them, i didn't do that great of a job on it, you can't really tell but my friend did a really good job with his, and i think it looks a lot better once you cut them and put on the double trigger guard (note that you only need to cut if you have gta double trigger and guard).

rbmllr412-i have a nitrogen tank, just is a big adjustable one, adds a lot of weight and i used to have it on there but for now i'm going to stick with co2, it works for me. I am going to get a palmer in the future, and i don't want to get the r/t i had it on my a5 and for some reason i just don't like it. i might get an ebolt...but i don't know.
