i wanna get rid of the 98's fore handle and have somthen welded over the hole or somthen then put a rubber fore grip on there to give it a much more rifly look i mean think about it the 98 without a fore grip on it depending on ur marker set up but mines a sniper rifle, would be awsome plus making it easer to aim while prone im trying to get tippmann to figure see if it can be done (i dont wanna mess up my gun tryen) so who all thinks this would give it a cooler look? ------------- [IMG]http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c128/sneaky_sniper/Invader_Zim.jpg"> |

ya i know it would but if it was done 100% perfectly u gotta admit it would be sweet but remember id put a ruber grip where the handle was so it wouldnt just be this little skinny metal thing to hold onto ------------- [IMG]http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c128/sneaky_sniper/Invader_Zim.jpg"> |

I did it sort of. I completly removed the foregrip and all its metal parts, but I never added on a rifle stock.
I would post the pics but they are trapped on a server that is no longer operational. ------------- Which falls faster, a lead ball or your IQ after reading some of these posts? http://www.pennstatepaintball.com" rel="nofollow - PSU Paintball |

I guess you could make it work, if that's what you want. I'd suggest just get a pro carbine. You can find plenty of accessories, you just have to look around. You will have to make some mods yourself, though. ------------- NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil. |

A few of the Engler mods have completely removed foregrips.

on opsgear.com, you can buy a magazine that goes over your forgrip, or at least where it used to be. i don't know if it will work for you anymore, but they have a cool mil-sim look for you "snipers." by the way, ive noticed you shouldnt use that word in these forums. people get mad. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

^^^nice! personally, im impartial to the subject. i am convinced someone can sneak up and cap me in the hiney, and i wont know what hit me, but im afraid to call him a sniper. bad things happen then. i personally like to play aggressive in scenario. a flatline and an r/t holds off about anyone!------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"
