i dont think the newer people here realize this gun's potential. it was brass eagle's one and only attempt into the high end market, and for a low cost marker, they did a great job. not to mention, its electro pneumatic, not just a cheap sear tripper. these are pics of the SAME GUN, just modded a little:
yes, that is an ANGELS trigger frame...
id wager an upped rainmaker against an upped tippy or an ion. as a matter of fact, that would make an interesting showdown... ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

Rainmakers were beautiful guns back in the day. I bet you found those pictures on PBNation, didn't you.

just the last two. the other i googled up and found them on the brass eagle owner group. man that sounds funny. its sad that the new BE is attempting to crapify the world now, at least wgp. ill never get used to a brass eagle karnivor... ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

yeah, but i think that adds to intimidation on the speedball field. nothing like an angel framed, 25+ bps brass eagle machine gun going off in your face! edit: yeah, mines a early 99. the double trigger came out late 99. its not that much older. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

brass eagle and k2 completely bought wgp. i dont know if they messed with the carny at all, so it IS a good gun, but its technically a brass eagle karni. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

Awesome gun. I havent seen one of those in quite awhile. Should be a formidable gun on the speedball field. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

detrevni makes me jealous again.... one of my friends bought an old crapped out rainmaker.... couldn't get it to work, so he just resold it for something.... don't remember what though... i hope you have better luck with it. rainmakers are amazing. the only marker i'd want over it in that particular rarity class would be another nova 700. Novas are completely mech and i'll bet i could make it shoot as fast as your rainy how it is.... ------------- X |

me? make YOU jealous? how? now i feel complimented i would love a nova. those are great guns. amazingly quiet, efficient and one of the fastest mechs around. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

I would absolutely buy a Rainmaker for that price. Nice pickup. Those are on my list of guns I need to pick up eventually. But I am surprised that with all the picture of Rainmakers, nobody dug out a picture of Harry Potter's Franken-Maker. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |

I got rid of my rm last year, It was a swet gun,still have some parts for it too. $80 is a steal. Mine was $90 and semi only, but I traded it for two kp2s and a pg(Kp2s are worth about $350 each, the pg was worth about $80). You cant top a trade like that.

| Nice buy. Rainmakers are the balls. The only good Brass Eagle gun, other then the real old school pumps. |
