I wanted to use this marker as a back up this week-end, so I sprayed a couple coats of primer on. It looked so good, I figuered I'd post a couple pics.
I have a Full Boar cocking system, a check-it unimount, and some macro to add once it's painted. Untill then, enjoy! ------------- One shot, One kill.... Oh, wait. What fun is that? TEN shots, one kill, and a bunch of welts on your back. |

I just use regular krylon primer. You can get it at walmart. I think the secret is a well shaken can and several very light coats. ------------- One shot, One kill.... Oh, wait. What fun is that? TEN shots, one kill, and a bunch of welts on your back. |

I went with the palmer stab because everyone siad it was the best out there for co2. When I ran co2 I really didn't notice any great change. But when I switched to hpa it made an awesome difference. I don't know if it was the stab, the hpa, or the combination of the two, but the gun shot better by far than it ever has. Sorry if that doesn't help. Also: kuhndog599, The blow back vents did the trick. Thanks everyone for the comments. I'll post again when I get it painted. ------------- One shot, One kill.... Oh, wait. What fun is that?

I've got that same gauge on my stabilizer too. Are your incriments messed up on it too? Mine don't go up by 100's. The 0-400 incriments work but the 400-800 don't because there is an extra one. There's an extra one in the 800-1200 too. Annoying.
