Hey. I picked this up today from a buddy of mine after selling my 2k3 cocker on Monday. I'll admit, this one doesn't look as nice as my other, but it rips paint and won't chop.
Do you guys have any suggestions on upgrades? Right now it has:
-Lotus Body kit w/ FreeFlow internals
-Freak Barrel
-Worrblade
-Palmers Micro Rock
-Palmers Ram w/ QEVs
-ANS Reg
-Clamp Feedneck
-Evolution II hopper w/ Y-board
I'm definitely buying an '04 MacDev Gladiator in January if I don't get one for Christmas.

St!ffi switch kit, or evil pipe would do it some good. I must
admit, i love st!ffi's, they are the lightest barrel i have ever held
but the kit doesnt come with as many inserts as the pipe.

Lutuses are hot.
I was so close to trading for one, if I didn't shoot a freestyle the next day I'd probally have one of the fastest sliders on the planet.

I like the Freeflow bodies - fancy milling, but not overly done.
Apart from the regulator upgrade, I would get rid of the freak.
If you like 3 piece barrel systems, go for the Powerlyte Scepter.
I've heard great things about the stiffi switch kit, but I find it odd
how the control bore is only 2 inches long. My stiffi one piece
isn't bad, but I prefer my Ultralite. A possible future comprise
of weight and function will be to add a stiffi tip to my ultralite
backs.

Very nice looking gun. I would say go with a Pipe kit, that is my suggestion. Also, I think the new WGP WorrGrips would look really cool on it, considering they have black ones. Congrats!

I dont see why people think black and chrome looks good. You have a black body, why not buy black pneus/worrblade/anything else... That way it all matches and looks really good. (My opinion)
I bet it rips though, i have always liked the lotus body.
3 things I personally would do are:
-New reg. I dont like the look or feel of the ANS one, but if you do, stick with it. If you do decide to replace it, i would reccomend an AKA 2 liter or Sidewinder.
-New trigger. Again, in my opinion the stock trigger is huge. A samurai trigger is a good investment, at least for me.
-A new cocking rod. I know it doesnt make a preformance difference, but a nice looking one can help the visual flow of the gun better.
Well, thats all for me, enjoy your new ripper. d:

That reg does look really bad...
I'm def. getting a Gladiator eventually.
I also asked for the Samurai trigger for Christmas...
And I can spare $15 for a cocking rod
I'm getting some Eclipse grips to see if they look better...

talk about going from one extreme to the other. The 2k3 looked a TON
better, but I'm sure the Lotus performs a ton better....FreeFlow'd/E2'd
2k3?? that'd be almost perfect

Hey I read your post and I think it's about time you got a suggestion to help your performance, not just "ugly reg" and "trigger job." I have an E-Bladed cocker, and one of the best things I did to it was to lower the reciprocating mass. With a lightened back block and pump arm, it is much easier for your marker to defeat inertia and your cycle rate goes up significantly. You probably can't get a lightened back block because of your cocker's design, but you could still get a lighter pump arm. Here you go:
Pump arm: http://www.chipleymachine.com/pumparm.html - http://www.chipleymachine.com/pumparm.html
It really did make a noticeable difference, in my experience.

The Worrblade is decent. Good enough for me... Until I decide to sell it and get a Matrix. I don't see a Race in my future

If I wanted a fade, wouldn't it have to be painted? Or is it possible to do that with anodizing?
How much $$$ are we looking at for a solid color? Multiple colors?

Posted By: NiQ-Toto
Date Posted: 26 November 2004 at 8:19am
No, they do fade annos too. They can do just about anything with annodizing, so be creative, but be prepared to pay.
A 2 color fade can run you up to $225 depending on where you get it done, not to mention a fairly long wait is a possibility. Once color fade i think is like 150 and more than 2 is 275 to 300 or so.
Check out http://www.maxanodizing.com/index2.html - http://www.maxanodizing.com/ for some more info and prices, they do really good work.

Oh well...
Next question:
Black or Chrome cocking rod? I think I might get the WGP Black Magic one, because they look sweet.

Posted By: A-5 bunkerking
Date Posted: 26 November 2004 at 9:58am
i would go for chrome, because your body is a flat black and im pretty sure the rod is glossy.
after a reg i would recomend sanding down your trigger or getting a sammy so you can lower your tpull and trel without getting alot of bounce.

I'm hoping to get the samurai for christmas...
Oh, and the Gladiator is a glossy black, I think. Do you think that it would look decent on my cocker?

thats an odd place for a detent.
and if you turtle it, the block is made out of delrin, the block wont match the body's milling

i think it's awesome looking...i love a black body with chrome ups...i
was gonna do that same kind of coloring with my shocker but the only
all matching parts that were in stock were blue...so i went with black
and blue...i love how that gun looks...minus the reg

I don't think you really need anything else on it. Maybe new grips, the ones on it right now are ugly. The gun look pretty good, it has nice lines.

Some places that do the "turtling" do use the body to make the block. I've seen it plenty of times. The Turtle company may not, but it is done.

Cool, but clean off that body a wee little bit... :-\
I kinda liked your other one better, but that was just based of visual appeal. This one most definately rips more. As for those E2 grips... I have no idea whats going on with the whole backwards slanting of the grip, looks odd, I like the E1 grips better.
Anyway, nice, I love the lotus body.
