well i just finished it up! it has a homemade centerfeed, drop forward, palmers mount, LP chamber and blade trigger. the drop i made to accept the battery and on/off switch and the trigger is side shimmed to reduce slop with threaded adjusments for firing and a overtravel stop. it is also equiped with a GTA E-Bolt and a 14" Dye Boomstick. i have plans of making a custom front grip too, had to throw it together because i hope to play this weekend!

now for the pics

the zebra paint is awesome.  Are you aware that it's against the law or against field rules to not have a trigger guard at some places?

that's on my list of things to make yet, trigger guard and a custom front handle. my local field will let me play without a trigger guard, trust me

thanks for all the compliments guys!

the Palmers mount was just a piece of aluminum tubing i had in the shop the ID was 1.05" and the OD of the Palmers is 1", a bit more clearance than i needed but i just drilled and tapped up through the bottom of the tube and used set screws to hold the Palmers in place. it's a very rigid setup, i machined clearance in the tubing for the air fittings so i could get enough of the Palmers inside the tube.

I like the paint. Good camoflauge for Africa. Don't like the drop though, to big.

I saved your pic and put in my "Totaly Awesome Model98's" folder.

I'm sure it will inspire me when I mod my next 98. Keep up the great work.

i bought a used gun from eBay that had it installed, you can generally pick them up for less than $200, i bought the gun, removed all the parts i wanted, returned the gun i bought to stock condition and plan to resell it for $80-$90. so i basically got a GTA e-bolt for $110 not including all the other stuff i got with the gun i plan to sell, a couple tanks, goggles, ect. i should be able to get the price of the e-bolt down to $60-$70 by selling the rest of the stuff that i got with the donor gun.
