Im new to the sport of paintball. I recently just got a 98 custom for my b-day. I've only used it once but i love it. I also recently purchased a 14" J&J barrell. But this is where im stuck. What now do i need that is neccesary for my gun. I do know that i need a auto-hopper so thats on my to get list. But anything that YOU ALL recommend would be great. Thanks Garrett ------------- My Gun is My Best Friend!I am useless with out my gun and my gun is useless with out me! |

I would say Revvy, double trigger, HPA, rail site, expansion chamber, and polish your internals after your warrenty voids ------------- A-5 Response Trigger DOP Blade Trigger Polished Internals X-Chamber Custom Paint 14" J&J |

^ Polishing your Internals doesn't Void your warrenty... it doesn't
really do anything Physical to the gun except chip paint away...

ok A1: Just leave it Mechanical the E-bolt kit is like 225$ and there discontinuing the GTA E-bolt soon.  A2: Stick with what I PM'd you about A3: All that Question was for, is if you need a Drop kit or not in which you dont. A4: Stick with what I PM'd you about A5: Then don't really Drill holes and Slap things into your gun that you don't what it does. www.model98.net <---- go there to learn about your 98c I was an idiot about my 98c till I went there and Started reading and understanding my 98c. -------------

Why would you need an x-chamber for HPA? You need a reg, not x-chamber ------------- blame it on the irish.... |

well all that you realy need is a electronic hopper. I say buy a empire reloader. It has a thicker shell so it will go good with the tippmann. -------------

Well if you have a small tank then get a 16-ounce tank,and get a V-force shield mask. Now your mask will NEVER fog. And I would recommend a motorized hopper but you said that you already have that covered. ------------- TIPPMANN 98 CUSTOM 14" Progressive barrel 32* Black gel grips BT-16 Double trigger Pen Spring Mod X-core Expansion Chamber Vertical Adapter |

Two of those are personal preference, such as the rail site, and the double trigger. ------------- [IMG]http://i27.tinypic.com/1538fbc.jpg"> Squeeze Box ☣ |

Actually, unless he is planning on buying the LP kit, a secondary reg is not necessary at all. I find that a double trigger is best for easily increasing your rate of fire and you will outshoot a gravity hopper easily so I'd buy an ehopper. I have a 12vlt Revy w/x board and they're great. Also, go to http://www.model98.net - www.model98.net like suggested, an excellent resource. Btw, why is tippmann discontinueing the ebolt? I've never heard that... ------------- In the world of the blind, the one eyed rules... |

if u get HPA dont get and expansion chamber, theres no liquid to expand, so get a regulator. i would play with what u have then see where u need to upgrade ur gun. like if ur firing to slow get an auto hopper and a double finger trigger. if ur gun isnt working the best, get some HPA, yes a stock tippmann works on HPA, an e-bolt and whatever else u would like. ------------- 98 custom e-bolt low pressure kit dye drop forward 68ci 3000psi glass fiber tank halo b 10" custom products barrel double finger trigger vertical feed |

I would first go to model98.net and do a couple of those mods then play a couple games and go from there ------------- The most important part of a gun is the player behind it. |
