Never seen a nice looking barrel (is that a whisper barrel?). I like the rear cocking knob but I think a drove tail would look nicer. Love the reg look’s so good with that drop. Also, nice egg! To bad about the duck tape.

I'de give that a 9.7/10.  The only way it could be better is with new grips, E-Bolt, or a paintjob.

I would also lean towards an E-Bolt and a Vertical Feed. (at K&P Customs) Very cool looking though!

Notice the duct tape on the egg, this is why I tell people not to get them .

Overall awesome gun though.

You don't have to use duct tape.  Use those sticky spacers that stick on both sides.  Put um on the inside to hold the cover.  And go ahead and break the battery tab before it happens.

Thats a good idea, Project Irene, what do you have on your gun?  I guess we're just cool like that.

Yes, I am considering painting it. I can't decide on the color. I don't want to do anything too bright or flashy to it.

Very nice looking gun.

Things I like: Just about everything. It all flows so nicely together. Pretty good choice on upgrades.

Things I don't like: R/T. You probably didn't have the cash at the time to buy the E-Bolt, but that gun is too nice to leave it with a R/T.

I would suggest the vertical feed just because I think that the Egg will look better on a vertical feed. A proffesional paintjob would cap it off nicely.

Overall rating: 9.3/10

Yeah, it's really just a matter of time befor I get the E bolt. Probably in the winter when I have more cash to spend. And yeah, shocktech now makes a bolt for the 98 and a5.
