Sinister - Ive been debating the vortex upgrades that are available, but most likely wont. Maybe an e-grip when they come out. Yomillio - the barrel is 16 inches blackdog - Im actually not too fond of the stocks that are available. They make it difficult to get your head low enough on the gun to aim with a mask on. I did add more of the covers to the top rail to protect them, also for looks. ------------- Some people are like slinkies, Absolutely useless, but still fun to push down a flight of stairs |

I went out today to field test this thing. It was a blast. Played the whole day with no chopped balls (though I never really shoot that fast.) Only problem Ive had was I hit my barrel on the ground, its a bit too long. I'm just going to live with it and get used to being careful how I carry it while walking to the field. The markers accuracy was quite good, I know there are people out there that are better  . I was getting a couple "kills" every 10-15min round, most from 25-40 yards but I did manage to sneak up on a couple of people. I also noticed that I was able to hide much better than before (before I got partial camouflage clothing, I also speculate that the rubber grips may have broken up some of the straight lines of my marker, possibly disguising it better, who knows. In any case, played for 6-7 hours, got my marker nice and painted. Took me about 10 minutes to break the whole thing down and clean/oil it. I really like this gun, I was getting comments all day about its looks (things like "badass", or "sweet".) I also just put in an order for a double trigger. And at the moment I'm doing the "clicky-pen trigger mod" to make the trigger pull lighter (just playing around really.) ------------- Some people are like slinkies, Absolutely useless, but still fun to push down a flight of stairs |

This is my X7  .
It has a 16" CP barrel. I polished the internals (more out of boredom
when i had it open for painting.) I'm debating buying the air through
stock and a remote airline and painting the stock tan to match. I also
want to get black rail covers instead of the OD ones I currently have.
Any comments/Suggestions would be great! http://imageshack.us/">  http://imageshack.us/">  http://imageshack.us/">  http://imageshack.us/">

Id have painted the Cyclone and the Low profile hopper as well. Otherwise very nice! -------------

I think if you painted the cyclone and hopper it wouldn't have the same cool factor anymore. Too much of one color.

haha, I like it black. Had I painted it tan it wouldn't have looked as good in my opinion. Also then I would have had to worry about getting paint in the manual feed system.

I just received my stock and Apex barrel, and here they are: http://img262.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img0593po6.jpg">  http://img124.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img0594cq7.jpg">  http://img514.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img0595lg6.jpg">  ------------- Some people are like slinkies, Absolutely useless, but still fun to push down a flight of stairs |

Kind of. I mean like, it looks nice, but Tan is not my first choice. Black would have then OD. -------------

My internals are polished. You open up the receiver and work at with high grit paper. Just be careful around the o-ring. Keep in mind, not everything in the receiver moves so not everything needs to be polished. ------------- Some people are like slinkies, Absolutely useless, but still fun to push down a flight of stairs |
