Draw it out on paper. Then find some hard plastic to cut the pieces out of. Use whatever you want to attach them.

kinda like "trial and error" really, use hard plastic or some sort of body metal, some times wood <- pick one that is easy for you to use. -------------

How do you guys think I should go about putting a barrel on it because the barrel on it now sucks alot because its super short. ------------- tippmann custom pro E-trigger cyclone feeder 21" core barrel or 11" stock barrel 20 and 9 oz co2 tanks or Brass Eagle Talon Ghost with copperhead red dot scope and a wooden stock |

You can't.... You could try tapping some threads and putting a barrel on that way, but I doubt that the plastic would be strong enough to hold it.

it doesnt neccassarly need to be a actuall metal barrel. I was thinking about trying to match some pvc pipe to the right diameter and getting an adapter to connect the pvc and the old barrel do you think that would work. ------------- tippmann custom pro E-trigger cyclone feeder 21" core barrel or 11" stock barrel 20 and 9 oz co2 tanks or Brass Eagle Talon Ghost with copperhead red dot scope and a wooden stock |

PVC would make a good shroud cover to give a good effect. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

You can mill the interior of a .688-.689 ID pvc pipe down to fit over the end of the existing barrel and then use set-screws to tension it down against the stock barrel. Modding a talon is very tough as the plastic (especially on a ghost) is very brittle and doesn't take well to modifications. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

didnt think of that. The funny part is when I was younger and didnt know anyhting about paintball I thought the Talon was the coolest gun ever. I didnt even know any others existed.  ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

I certainly dont think the talon is a good gun by any means at all it was my first gun(my parents bought it for me for christmas a couple years back) but I figured since I had it I would try to make it look a little cooler anyway.
