This will be my Half-block 05 Prostock Project thread
i have just recently sent my 05 Prostock to a machinist to have the following done:
- Drilled for Eyes
- Cutting body to Half-block specs
- milling hammer for half-block set-up
The following will be done upon further decisions yet to be made:
- Re-annoed, either back to original color and type, or to a completely different color, type, and scheme (possibly a black or gun metal with chrome/nickel, red, or yellow parts)
- Laser engraving "Viper GTS" in Viper Font and the Viper Emblem to show off my love for Vipers
- usual upgrades to the regulator, valve, pneums, asa, and gas line
Here is how she was before i sent her off...

I will update when i get her back sometime this week.
Also may i ask if anyone knows if short Impulse bolts will fit a Half-blocked cocker... if not anyone know where i can get a POM half-cocker bolt?

+ 10 internetz for making a Viper 'cocker. You share my favorite car. Now for 10 more, which do you like better, new style or old style?
As for the gun, since you're doing a Viper theme ( ), it HAS to be red. No questions asked. That's like a Viper's trademark color. Can't wait to see her when she's done.

2nd Gen GTS all the way man... i have always loved the old style bodies... the new ones are pretty sweet... but the old ones are my first love
and actually when the Viper first came out the only available colors were Viper Red and Viper Black.... im having trouble thinking cause i already have a red gun (my 04 prostock) and i dont want 2 of the same color ... so idk exactly the color yet... so color is very highly subject to change

| CORRECT!
Anyway, another clean color on Vipers is blue. Get it anodized a deep blue, that would look clean...

Vipers are alright, but all we know the Corvette is better! I think the deep blue then run one white racing strip across each side for really nice looks. Then have some fun with JB weld and make a custom Viper hood scoop for it. Tada you have one Vipirized cocker!

It's not that the viper theme is lame in itself, it's got two main drawbacks.
1) Someone on PBN already did it with the Ferrari.
2) Shouldn't one of the best cars in the world be on one of the best guns?

I thought I would do my Dream Car on my Dream Gun..... the Cocker has always been my most favorite gun... ever since i first got my 98C i've always wanted a cocker... and now i have two... i would take nothing over one of my babies... i may use something different but it would never replace them... and in the End it all boils down to preference anyway... so your "BEST" gun may not be my "BEST" gun, either by fact or opinion... but i don't really care
and if i do recall a Ferrari is NOT a Viper... so its still different and i don't care what other people have done... and besides its just one other person... most of the people i play with around here dont even know what an Autococker is and much less ever seen one, Espescially with custom engraving on it
So i'm gonna do what i want to do...
i appreciate your interest in the project, and i don't like anyones disinterest and quite rude comments.... how bout we wait and see how the final project turns out?

It would be a good idea, but id rather have a mustang,
one of those new shelbys, red with the white racing stripes

I say do it. Simple as that. And actually, the racing stripe idea seems kinda n33t, if done right. If not, it may look too cluttered. Maybe just skip that...

Do not do that to that gun . Don't get me wrong the idea sounds wicked, but I love that gun how it is, I saw my buddy do the same thing with his, he wasn't pleased and sold it, and I sold mine for money for a nerve and in retrospect I've never been more sad to part with a paintball gun.
