I really, really like that paintjob. It would be great if you could get an X7 hopper, double trigger, and possibly an E-Trigger, along with putting the stripes on the ASA.

Great Job.

Primered and did all the body work, then Painted the black, free handed the design, cut it out, layed it down on the gun, then painted the red.  Then I removed the stencils, and clearcoated it.

Rear cocking was a whole lot easier than top cocking.  Take the black plug thats on the back of the marker and drill out on of the holes above the spring hole in the center so that it fits the piece of rod or nail that you use as the cocking rod.  Then drill a hole in the back of the rear bolt and jb weld the cocking rod into it.  Pretty easy.  I added the dice as a knob and made the beavertail out of another piece of rod i had laying around.

Great; I was wondering how to do that, too; thanks.

I think it would look better with a see-through red hopper.

duplicolor self etching primer, duplicolor automotive spraypaints, and then 2-3 layers of clearcoat.  design i drew onto 3m painters tape or 3m automotive masking tape and then cut out with an xacto blade, and stuck on the gun..
