Don't expect to "snipe" too many with it though.

Get rid of your silencer thing, but good deal overall.

I'm not critisizing your choice to use your scope, everyone does they're own thing, they're allowed to. I am kind of curious though, how is it possible to actually sight down that thing with the stock on and your mask? Even if you managed it, how much of a benefit would a scope give you on a marker that has a max range (absolute TOP) of about 200 ft? It couldn't be comfortable that low and on top, not with your mask against the stock.

Not bad, im not a huge fan of the silencers though. They would look better in black IMO. The only thing that annoys me is that you cant use the scope at all, because the rear sight is blocking it.

ROFL at the silencers.

Not a horrendous deal, but not a great one either.

Hey looks like you got a good deal over all. Keep your gun the way you want and don't listen to these jerks. More than likely you will never meet them anyways. You will find your own way soon enough and what works for you. Work on your performance ups first.
*Polish internals (free diy)
*quick strip mod (cut shell for easy cleaning another diy)
*Response trigger or e trigger if not already
*cyclone feed
-vortex for that
-Qev valve also
*new front bolt
look on ebay for the best deals .

Things you will discover with that set-up:

The scope will be useless

With the stock in place, your mask won't let you get down close enough to use it
Paintball markers don't have sufficient range/accuracy to make aiming with a scope worthwhile

If you aren't careful, you will find yourself engaging targets that are out of range
The arced trajectory required for longer range paintball shots means that you will have to raise the barrel so much for maximum range engagements that the target will no longer be in the sight picture

The time taken to aim with a scope at shorter ranges will normally get you eliminated by those who use a quicker sight or just walk their fire in on you
Scopes are handy for scouting ahead (checking out terrain for threats) but that specific scope has too small of a viewing area to be easily used even for this

Making silencers, even for paintball markers, is a federal offense if not registered with/approved by the government
That looks like the JCS folding stock-it is a very good stock with only minor drawbacks

If you have trouble with it turning between the marker shell halves, opening up the marker and wrapping a few scraps of rubberband around the mounting point between the two raised areas will fix it
Be sure to check the tightness of all stock hardware (screws etc.) regularly

Lose the scope and the "silencer" which is not a silencer at all. You put plumbing insolation around the barrel and rapped it in camo duct tape.

ya that scope would be next to useless with or without the stock. its all preference but i found using the tank as a stock puts the gun far and high enough to use scopes.

as for a scope, a rifle scope wouldnt help as you have a narrow field of view while looking through it. not to mention you need to close 1 eye while using it. i would suggest a red dot scope. both eyes can be open while using it. its very effective for the range of your gun. and they are cheap, just head to wal-mart.

When shooting (real guns) I keep both eyes open. Closing one eye seems to give me tunnel vision, and I sight better with both eyes anyway.
