I have some brass blackener that I am gonna try. I don't want to paint it because of the look of paint on metal. If I can do the blackener right it will look original.
Mostly eBay, some others from online forums and the like. ------------- Name your poison... |

LOL!!! I love that eBay stuff! It shoots like a dream! I felt like an idiot earlier because I was trying to shoot it w/ like 2 grams of CO2 in the thermo.... I pulled the valve and tried everything... then had an epiphany while walking to the car about how full the tank was... ------------- Name your poison... |

New, awesome guns have more problems than I like. I have an Angel, and it isn't as "uber" as one might think. I've shot the DM4, and some other high end guns. They blow alot of paint, and don't get me wrong - that's fun and has it's place too. *BUT* I have played in many a speedball games with a 007 and 20 balls total, eliminating those carying "super guns". One ball is really all it takes.
My favorite pump is my Hammer 2. Shoots like a dream. Smooth pump action, and nice looking. That might change when the "new" one shows up. My favorite semi is probably my 68 Special. It has this awesome *k-Chunk* noise when you fire it. I also really like my 98 Custom. Fast little bugger. Then there's that Angel LED
Most, if not all are online finds of one sort or another. eBay alot of times and forums the rest. ------------- Name your poison... |

Here's why= how many examples of original PLAY gear do you see? Show me two guns from the eighties that are setup the same way that they were back then. Many people have "museum" pieces, but few can sport "shooters" that have survived. There is no way at all that PPS will ever touch it. Palmer's does great work, but should work with guns that are more average in my opinion. Send them a PMI-1, a PGP - even a KP. Leave the gear that was modded, by players, as the game progressed; in the condition that it was left in.
Thanks man.
Thanks. You spanked that guy, while using the Nelly, like he was a deer in the headlights. Great shot! (For those of you who weren't there... Garrett here was shooting a Nelspot 007 with Marballizers and nailed a guy toting a pretty high dollar gun as he stepped out from behind cover. About all that was exposed was the gun he was holding. This was from about 30-40 feet by the way! All I heard was *pop*... "Out... wow good shot man!" It was cool.) ------------- Name your poison... |

What makes you say that? Specifically? I doubt that you will see any working DM4's or Angels in 20 years. Most of my guns, I assume by your comment, are older than you and still work very well. Funny thing is this - of all the crap I have, right now the Angel is the only one that isn't working! Go figure. ------------- Name your poison... |
