Where's the battery going DT? Also, loving the A.A. Vigilante Reg. They make some nice stuff. Lovin' the "Dye" Tank cover as well!

The Vigilante is all scratched up, but it should work right. Right now, it has the low pressure spring, but the HP spring was included as well.

And that's the cheapest Dye product I could find!

I think the battery is too wide for that.

Straight trade for this, except with no barrel, grips or line. I did some market scanning, and it seemed fair enough to me.

Very nice. You and your Rainmakers! What about a battery mount on the duckbill or right below the trigger guard?

I'd have to make fun of you for that if I ever saw you at a field.

Srsly, you like the ugliest guns.

Ever.

But I guess it doesn't matter if they work.

It just comes from the fact that he looks cooler than USAF, kinda panned out to be all encompassing.

Get a custom milled metallic battery case and attach it to the sight rail (I think that's what it is-hard to tell from the pic) in front of the feed neck. Then run neon colored wiring to wherever it's needed.

I wonder if Rainman still has any of those battery back-blocks left. If not, I'm just gonna gut the reg. Low pressure RM FTW!

I just installed a mouse's microswitch. MY GOD it's the nicest trigger pull. I honestly like the pull better than my E Blade...

Also, there's been some serious mods on the frame. I may not need an aftermarket frame after all. I've tightened the trigger, there's an adjustable stop on it, mouse microswitch, milled frame to make tourney lock easily removable, milled hole for battery, and eventually I'll install a power on/off swith.

Better be. lol

That's my old RM for those who don't know. Can't wait for the pump RM!

Put the battery horizontally on the trigger gaurd- that way it's blocked by the reg.

Heh. I just zip-tied the battery below the ASA.

Also, the reg is in need of a rebuild, so I threw my CP on there. Gassed it up and cycled a few times. The regs need to be sweetspotted, but it works like a dream!
