The double trigger doesn't look good with milsim.
The ak mag expansion chamber looks bad.
If you ditched the AKmag, put back on the stock foregrip, took off the new grip and got some rail covers for the flatline shroud it would look better.

Oh Yeah...I know she's ugly, but she's my baby and works great with my style of play. I had it set up exactly how Hoboman suggested at one point. It was prettier, but not as comfortable to use. The Mag is an expansion chamber, not just a gas thru. I run a remote line and CO2, and the other expansion chambers out there are even uglier.
Thanks for taking a look.

Hey if it works, it works. If you bought rail covers and a new grip it would look better and still preform nice. Also, maybe get something to cover the gap between the mag and the gun.

I usually wrap some black sports tape around the tombstone/ top of the mag & through the trigger gaurd. It does give it a nicer line, and it will flex with the Mag when I pressurize the marker.
Thanks for the links....those gaurds are pretty sweet..So, Why not? My A-5 already weighs a ton.....

It's not bad. I think a stock would help it though.

A stock definitely. It would "complete" it in my mindset, and it would also balance out the feel when you shoulder it to fire. Overall, do some experimenting, and you will make a killer looking and firing gun.

You got to start somewhere.
I was just being critical in an atempt give helpful advice for the gun. No bad intensions on my part.

I really like it. I passed on most of the mods that you have except the barrel knobs, but they look much better all assembled than I might've thought. Who made that mag? They definitely should've extended it to cover the tomb, but at least it's functional, which is more than I can say for mine.

I like it alot. I for one see no problem with a double trigger on a "Milsim" gun. I mean of course its not gonna look exactly like a real gun. do real guns have a giant hopper on the right side? so anyways I like the double trigger. I find single triggers annoying as heck to shoot.
as for the gap around the AK mag, just fill that in with something. your idea with the tape works, though it would probably be better to get a actuall peice of hardware that would go there and make it look alot better
All in all I really like the gun, dont get a stock for it, that would make it to long. right now it looks nice and compact.

Well, its not the best looking one I've seen, however it does like comfortable and the gun looks to be evenly balanced, which is a +.

I would get rid of the AK mag definetly. To be honest I dont think it looks that great, but then again I'm not very impressed with any paintball markers that try to imitate real fire-arms. Unless Their Real Actoin Markers like the RAP4, RAP5, and RAP AK47. Cuz those markers look realistic compared to the real thing.
