I would recommed a trigger guard, a dye ultralite barrel, and a flat black powder coat or paintjob.

yeah, about the trigger guard. aparently the old 98s didnt have removable ones, so you had to cut them off, so back when it was my brothers gun he had to cut it off. i like my barrel. its no worse thn any other barrel. an ultralite is just another polished barrel, they are no more accurate than any other. The CP isnt any less accurate than the freak on my cocker when both are set up with a paint to bore match. im also thinking adding my small drop forward from my cocker before i got a uni, or just get another uni for this. |

Nice job on the gun. Isn't there still an aftermarket guard still floating
around somewhere? ------------- http://tbish.webs.com/tippy.html - My E-Bolted 98 |

Yeah, this gun isn't a wal-mart M98, it was purchased by my brother back before 98c's. So im not sure if the new m98's have removable ones or not, but i know this didn't. Edit: does anyone have suggestions for making this beast more efficient? it seriously drained my hpa in like 4 minutes when i was testshooting it |

A low pressure kit w/ a regulator preferably a AKA 2-liter set at 250psi-ish.

doesnt a lower operating pressure mean you have to raise velocity(which in my case is dwell) which makes the valve open longer causing less efficiency? so the only thing i can do is get a reg and sweetspot? i was asking more along the lines of valve work, but i guess noone has had any experience with valve work for efficiency... |

| Did you even read anything? Had to cut the trigger guard off in order to fit the double trigger for the ebolt! Model 98's are like that... |

lovin the green... centerfeed it.. ------------- X |

Like styro said, a centerfeed would complete the speed ball look/feel. Out of curiousity, you said you drained your HPA tank in 4 minutes? What size/what's it compressed at? Also, was that shooting non-stop, or on and off? Great job on it, I can only dream of my 98 being that pimp. |

well i was kind of exagerating there... its only a small 48/3000 and it was at 1500 and i drained it in like 3 minutes... nonstop for the most part and i will look into centerfeed. would drilling holes destroy the finish though? any precautions i could take?

I value your word not, because: First, you joined 9 days ago, and Second, the majority of your 47 posts are uneducated, insulting, and pointless. Again, mainly, woodsballers and speedballers live in harmony on this forum, untill ignorance like you feels the need to bless us with your unwanted, and unneeded presence. Please, anyone reading this, immuse yourselves by searching "woodsballer91" and laugh at his total ignorance and stupidity. |

Well i could attach something with quiksteel, but im out, and i really didn't think it was a big deal. The field lets me play... Another Idea: I think im gonna get some hollow tubing of some sort, run the wires through that, and mill the VA are out where i got the wires running through. Wouldn't that look cleaner? I wish I would have thought about that before i painted... |

http://model98.org/mods/lpkhome.php - http://model98.org/mods/lpkhome.php If i do this, what will be more efficient, with or without the LP chamber? If i do it, all that will be done in MY gun would be buying a regulator, making an LP Chamber(optional) and modding the valve. |

I've got nothing wrong with woodsballers, but when they believe a milsim gun with 800 dollars of unneeded and useless parts strapped on it is more hard work than actually customizing your gun, thats what bugs me. (Ive got nothing wrong with Milsimmers that actually customize either, the ones that bug me are the Drop-onners that say they are the most custom thing ever) |
