Nice One! Excellent choice of upgrades. All I can recommend is to make the switch to HPA so you can ditch the x-chamber, and then if you want to go all out, get a RD centerfeed. Either way be sure to post pics after it's milled and painted. ------------- One shot, One kill.... Oh, wait. What fun is that? TEN shots, one kill, and a bunch of welts on your back. |

A Rufus Dawg centerfeed would look good on it, along with something like a Halo. Also, the jump to HPA would be a good upgrade as well. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

i was thinking about a centerfeed but i'm not sure i want to send it in. how long does it take for RD to centerfeed a gun? for milling i plan to mill the velocity lip off, smooth the front grip possibly, mill TIPPMANN off, take that plastic 98 Custom thing off, and fill in the warning and sight rail. then for the paintjob i'm thinking red since my team has red jerseys and my school colors are red and white. if i wanted to put the word TITAN on the side, what would be the best way to do it? (our school mascot is the titan) ------------- http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=5504952">

From what I gather from them, they put it in a clamp, then mill it. Quick process The time is in shipping.

or any local machine shop can do it in minutes. IF you have a steady hand, you can drill it out and dremel it as well; mark with a felt pen and carefully dremel it out to the lines.

careful when you mill, less is more. The slower you go the easier it'll be.
About the centerfeed, it takes around two weeks for a turnaround(you send gun then you receive gun) The biggest thing you can do is allow for faster shipping 3-day it both ways then it takes a week. Cost a little more but well worth it. |

our town just built a speedball field and i dont think i can bear to ship my 98 in and miss two weeks of paintball. if i do centerfeed it, i will wait till the shop gets an air compressor. then i can use my ion for the time being.
