Looks good.  Like said, get the Palmers over the X. And with the Palmers (taking you get the Male), I'd suggest a Vertical Adapter. Their not needed, but one will help balance out your gun. ------------- http://www.macdev.net - MacDev Militia http://www.alienpb.com - Alien - Because winning is more fun. |

I'd also say go with a Palmers. They're a little pricey, but well worth it. You could maybe look into a barrel kit if you use field paints and are unsure about size. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.)

Decent. Don't go for any speed upgrades until you get HPA. Shooting faster than 10-12bps with co2 is pointless because of the shootdown you're gonna get. If you stick with co2 for whatever reason, just get a stabilizer, max-flo, or akalmp sidewinder, all of which are excellent with co2 or nitro. Also get an anti-siphon line. ------------- MIDN 2/C, US Navy LCE-SpyderMag | G-Force Pneumatic Mag | '99 RF Sniper II |

Instead of the WAS go with the Ape board its about half the price and has more options. Only down side is that it is a whole 5 balls slower ------------- A5 rampage board, Rampage trigger, Flatline, Qloader |
