yaman camo taped all, and the seams are glued together
with a rubber glue called "SHOE-GUE" so they don't come apart or get ripped off. i always use the sight/scope it doesn't magnify at all but use it whether it's on or off. i Can't NOT use it cuz it occupies of of my visual aiming area, but i like looking through it anyway, i can see the balls flying right through the red dot when it's turned on. the laser is pretty good too cuz it costed me 99 cents plus the cost of an elastic. now that i have a palmer, there is no puff of cloud exiting the barrel after shots, which is good, cuz the puff would prevent me from being able to use the red dot sight. but when i look through red dot sight when it's off, it's no distortion or nothing, so it's prefectly real- time view, very good stuff, better than crappy plastic clamp thing. ------------- Custom Pro Black BT Sealed Bolt System R/T Cyclone Feed Ricochet R5 Hopper with silencing mod 16" J&J Ceramic Barrel Palmer Stabilizer Male w Gauge Sanded 2X Trigger to stick Red Dot 1X32mm |

the laser has a clip that came from a pen. when
i twist the clip, it rolls onto the button, keeping the laser on all the time unless i roll the clip thing off. the camo tape around the barrel naturally started to revert back to it's base color yellow cuz of the hot water i used to clean the inside of the barrel. i got rid of the double trigger guard cuz the low pressure chamber serves that function mostly now and i wear bug gloves that wouldn't squeeze in between the guard and the trigger before i got rid of it. in the last picture my cat is sniffing the tip of the barrel. ------------- Custom Pro Black BT Sealed Bolt System R/T Cyclone Feed Ricochet R5 Hopper with silencing mod 16" J&J Ceramic Barrel Palmer Stabilizer Male w Gauge Sanded 2X Trigger to stick Red Dot 1X32mm |

Looks great, but I'm not a big fan of the camo tape. I think it wouldve looked fine without it. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

nice, im not a fan of the camo tape either but one other thing an LPK w/ cyclone n r/t isnt the best choice, the LPK eliminates a lot of blowback -------------

I find that 98 to be a superior product to the A-5, based on my own, personal experiences. My A-5 was trash, and I sold it for almost nothing. My 98's (one RT, one E-Bolt), have NEVER let me down. Period. ------------- If I flee, kill me If I die, avenge me |

I love it. The cyclone adds a lot of looks to the 98 in my oppinion. The camo tape is great, you did a very good job of it. Overall an amazing marker. Must be quiet too.

the camo tape hasn't worn on the hopper cuz i covered
it in Shoe Gue. you'll notice the hopper is kindof darker than the barrel cuz the barrel's camo tape has worn but the hoppers hasn't. the wear gives it the authentic kind of look i was hoping for. perhaps i will cover the rest with glue to freeze it at it's current color scheme. ------------- Custom Pro Black BT Sealed Bolt System R/T Cyclone Feed Ricochet R5 Hopper with silencing mod 16" J&J Ceramic Barrel Palmer Stabilizer Male w Gauge Sanded 2X Trigger to stick Red Dot 1X32mm |

I hate it when people take off the trigger guard, it's the most stupid,
red-neckish, wanna-be mod there is. But the rest of the gun is cool. I
actually like the camo-tape. It seems like it would blend in nicely to
some surrounding foliage...perfect for woodsball!!!

LOL, wicked, a Canadian Tire Commando - Camouflage 'Duck' brand tape; goes for
about $6 a roll.  We sell that (and Shoe Goo) in aisle 17. You got
the red-dot sight from the sporting goods at Canadian Tire too unless I'm greatly mistaken-
I've been looking at it myself.Honestly, I'd lose the tape. If you're gonna be hitting up Canadian Tire, get some camouflage Krylon spray paint and paint it. The Krylon works great. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America. It is forced and the democrats are behind it, with the goal of eugenics at its foundation." -FreeEnterprise, 21 April 2011.

NICE, yaman I got Canadian Tire worth of Camo Tape,
Red Dot Sight, Shoe Gue, and hockey net for my Ghillie Suit. Krylon sounds good if this tape fails me. The trigger guard has an explanation to it; I wear pretty thick gloves and they don't fit in the small space tween the trigger and guard when I play. I'd have to sandwich my fingers in before, and this would make me shoot sometimes without trying to, thus revealing my position to the opponent; I like to keep stealth much, so since I got rid of the guard, no problems. I don't know what the guard is for except maybe to protect trigger finger from paintballs or trigger from accidently being tripped. I don't care about that though, my trigger fingers are all broken badly from accidents a while ago, and the LPK volumizer takes care of paintballs coming dead on against my finger. I am not a red-neck; worked with some redneck once, didn't like it(them), quit, and here I am today, deffinitely not a red-neck. I shoot mostly birds and small animals while hunting for fun, and the odd paintball scenario game here and there. ------------- Custom Pro Black BT Sealed Bolt System R/T Cyclone Feed Ricochet R5 Hopper with silencing mod 16" J&J Ceramic Barrel Palmer Stabilizer Male w Gauge Sanded 2X Trigger to stick Red Dot 1X32mm |
