If you have a E-Grip, get a JCS trigger. My trigger pull is about 1/8" or so ( less than a mouse click ) JCS is the only way to go to get a clicky trigger. The set screw i put on the trigger guard is to make the trigger stop right after it fires, so that there is no unecessary pulling of the trigger.

I love the gun! I have the exact same mods you do except i'm using CO2 with a remote line. I have no reg or expansion chamber or anything. I play in SC where it's usually not to cold. Do I need to add anything to my CO2 setup to make it work better? What would you recommend?

Pretty sweet I give it a 8/10. O and if you want another upgrade then get like a dye ultralie or a all american because the flatline isn't a good speedball gun.

The blue is Epoxy that i used for the Epoxy Front Velocity Adjuster mod to get rid of the FVA, and i put on a JCS Rear Velocity Adjuster that uses spring tension to adjust my velocity.

One of the reasons i modified the LPK was to be able to keep the front grip. I didnt like the looks of the LP chamber and large reg right in front of it.

Many people are working on a new board for the egrip so you can get higher than the capped 15bps. I hope they figure it out soon, that would be sweet.

Tis no reason for me to mod it to a vertical feed system, the cyclone keeps up just fine. Also, i do have a shocktech drop but dont use it because its not as comfortable for my playing style (the stubby sits just right). As far as the "grip thingy", im not sure what you are talking about. Give me some more info on the grip or whatever, i would like to check it out.
