It looks a little rough. I'd paint it some awesome colors, and then get some uber grips. It has a ton of potential.

Not bad. Definately could use some polishing up. Nice job so far! ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

I was just about to say that Sentinelz, a rocket cock II would solve the problem and may even make ur gun quieter.

^^ maybe he just wanted to do it himself and make a project out of it. It looks good needs a paintjob and it has alot of potential to be a sweet loking gun. -------------

To answer your questions. The super RT can go high, I have it set that way. Im debating between Powder coating or painting. I had a rocket cock(still do) but I didn't like the way you had to cock it, or how far it stuck out. And, I wanted to stand out  |

Masking tape is so I wouldn't get paint in the body(I played last week) I didn't feel like putting the grips on Black=  It aint cold without grips, 90* weather and gloves cure that. If you wish, Ill put it back together(its but into pieces again) and take pics with the grips on. |

The expansion chamber (woohoo X-Core!) and drop have to go. Do some more milling to make it look more unique too. Actualy you should hallow out the chamber (I know how) and mill that too. And milling the drop would also be cool. I thought about it on my Mag, but was on too tight of a time limit for PCing. Get it powder coated too. It looks much better than paint and is almost impossible to get off. Needs more work, but its going somewhere! The Super RT is capable of over 24cps. My regular RT with various polishing can reach 20. Edit- and cut down the LP RT line so its strait if you want. -------------

Yup, your a machinist. I like the x-core(even if i dont use CO2) it feels great The drop is nice. (Im not a drop person, but on a tippy its a must) Find me a place to do a cheap Silver to red PC, and Ill get it. I did more touch up work yesterday. Its coming along slowly. I totally forgot about the front grip grinding. I started that, but didn't do anything else to it. |

You may get problems with it with HPA though. I did. The thing works so well it restricts airflow and you get really bad shootdown and incomplete cycles due to not enough pressure. Its weird because it only does it sometimes. Its extremly easy to take out the internal lathed billet. Its just a matter of a simple c-clip. If you dont use co2 at all you should do this, but its up to you. I was going to do it with my 98, but saw no purpose and sold my good ol' X-Core for $25 (ripped of this annoying kid! ha ha!). Just not really a fan of the Bullet drop design. I had one on my 68 when I bought it, worked great, but looks kind of low-end. Actualy I may mill, PC, and sell it now that I think about it. They look cool on 98s though. NCC does it. http://nelsoncountycustoms.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=13&Itemid=43 - http://nelsoncountycustoms.com/index.php?option=com_content& amp;task=view&id=13&Itemid=43 The price is ok I guess. Im not sure where else to get it done because a guy at my dads work did my whole Mag for only $20. Id look around some more.

I have had problems of it un-cocking, but it happens on a vert-tank set-up to. I took your advice and asked for a price quote. bead blasted silver to red fade metal flake clear coat. |

Hmm thats weird. Iv actualy had a similar problem on my 98. Yesterday (never happened before) my gun would go uncocked after just a few shots. And on my Mag every shot would drop about 20ft after each other. So I tried a differant HPA tank and a Co2 tank and the problem disappeared. I never liked my 98 on HPA, the RT seems to work a lot better with Co2 anyway. It must be somthing wrong with the tank causing this (yes it was full!). I actualy not know whats going on at tis point. -------------
