I have just bought this gun from a kid. It looked bad but with alot of paint remover and alot of hours. when done i painted it with wrinkle paint. It looks like brand new. what do you think.   ------------- A-5 star fire bolt J&J ceramic barrel E-grip trinity hopper w/quicklid rufus dawg trigger Vortex Mod |

Nice work fixing it up. What in the world did that kid do to it? ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

I got it with a mask, 16oz co2 tank, and 500 balls for 150 dollars. I took the triger gard off for more triger room. the kid tryed to paint it but has no paint skills. ------------- A-5 star fire bolt J&J ceramic barrel E-grip trinity hopper w/quicklid rufus dawg trigger Vortex Mod |

Looks like the kid tryed to paint over the orginal paint job with a brush and totally screwed it all up. Very nice job on fixing that train wreck, it looks great. Hopefully you can take care of it better than the previous owner . ------------- Tippmann A-5: >Tapco CAR stock. >W.A.S. board, E-grip. >Spyder Remote Line. >Smart Parts 20" barrel. >Other custom mods. |
