Looks nice and compact and light. Seems like it would be balanced because you will have the front end of the gun in your hand. Now just get a new barrel. Nice job.

thats awesome dude... ive never seen the co2 put on the front of a marker like that b4! really cool although i would stick with the 9oz. cuz the 20oz. looks like it would get tiring on your front arm after a while and it doesnt look as good  ------------- Kingman Spyder Rodeo VL Quantum Electric hopper 12oz. and 20oz.

Very unique! Looks a bit front heavy, but I'm sure that isnt a big deal. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

I picked up everything off of e-bay. The Worr Games Uni-mount Universal is from http://www.Paintballstuff4less.com - www.Paintballstuff4less.com and the rest is just macro tubes and fittings. I also picked up a heavy duty brass 90 from HomeDepot. The flat stock that the uni-mount is attached to, can only be attached to the right side of the receiver, so the marker can still be disassembled. The mounting of the plate and the uni-mount have to be rock solid, and extra care needs to be taken to be sure the mount is centered. ------------- >98 Custom RT, Cyclone, BigShot, 6-pos. stock >98 Custom Pro E-Trigger, Freak barrel >98 Custom RT, Cyclone, Flatline >98 w/ tank forward >2 Smartparts ION's >Spyder LCD |

| I don't see any different milling from pic 1 to the other pics. Anyway, it's still ok. Too much weight on the front half. |

I allready started to mill off the lettering, before I remembered to take a pic. All lettering has been milled off, and the safety warning on the right receiver was bondo'd in. ------------- >98 Custom RT, Cyclone, BigShot, 6-pos. stock >98 Custom Pro E-Trigger, Freak barrel >98 Custom RT, Cyclone, Flatline >98 w/ tank forward >2 Smartparts ION's >Spyder LCD |

I'm very impressed. As already mentioned...finally not a milsim. How did you mount the uni-mount for the tank where you milled off the front grip? I wanna copy that so bad now. I wanted to mount my tank up front for a while now but lacked motivation. -------------

I took a piece of flat stock aluminum and shaped it to the bottom of the marker where I cut the foregrip off. I attached the flat stock to the right receiver with three screws. I used a dremel to cut a slit in the inside of the receiver to make room for the nuts. If I had to do it over, I think I would drill and tap the receiver for the screws and use JB Weld in between the reciever and the flat stock to be sure it didn't move. I attached the uni mount with two screws, into the flatstock. ------------- >98 Custom RT, Cyclone, BigShot, 6-pos. stock >98 Custom Pro E-Trigger, Freak barrel >98 Custom RT, Cyclone, Flatline >98 w/ tank forward >2 Smartparts ION's >Spyder LCD |
