Nah, I'm not a speedball player.  Too big, too old and too slow.  I prefer woodsball.  Lots of capture the flag, elimination, foxes and hares.  Stuff like that.  It's more like hunting.

I didn't build the gun to win beauty contests.  Ugly parts or not, everything is for function.  A better looking x-chamber or drop isn't going to improve performance.

As far as getting anything more for it, I haven't given it much more consideration.  An RVA is on the way.  I can't think of anything left to do.  Don't want or need a stock.  HPA/Nitrogen is out.  Too expen$ive considering the closest place to fill is a 90 minute round trip.  I'll entertain any suggestions, though.

Hey thats cool your all about function. But if you put your gun in the marker gallery, where most people show off their nice looking guns dont expect to not have some people tell you their opinion on the way it looks.

Looks good! I would suggest a CAR stock, but you said that was out of the question. Maybe go for a bigger Red Dot and a remote line. It's your gun, so whatever you like.

E-Grip with JCS Trigger and a Flatine with Camo . . Hmmmm.

So is it for speedball or woodsball?

Either way not that bad. 7/10

I don't play speedball.  I've already mentioned he reasons why.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions.  It is a dot site, not a scope.  Scopes are worthless.  I'm keeping the dot site I have.  A bigger one isn't going to make any difference.  Not a big fan of the remote lines either.  Where I play, I'd be getting it hooked up on branches and stuff.  Seems more of a hinderance to me.  I like that drop forward because I didn't want a ponderously long line from the ASA to the expansion chamber.  Reduces the profile of the marker.  Makes it a lot easier to conceal or hide behind trees.

Boohoo, get over it already Enos. You always whine about people saying to lose the drop, it's annoying. People post that because drops feel goofy, it's their preference and they're reccomending it to others. It's like if someone had a 21 inch Thunderpig on there, and people say get a new barrel, cuz what they have isn't all that great, eventhough they think it is.

Guess the old link died.  Here's a more permanent one.  Sorry to dredge up an old post.

It's a nice looking gun, but I don't think this thread needed to be bumped from 3 years ago.

I agree with camp. I doubt people are looking back 3 years to see how it's doing. The thread was dead. If you wanted to bring it back, you should have just made another thread.
