All these fancy-pantsy electro Rainmakers are effectively beyond me. I know; I've owned 'em all! Thunderboard (Great board!):  Warped Rainmaker with KM2 Gale Force (meh):  Warped Rainmaker now with Painmaker (Man, what a board that was! Of all the Rainy's I've let go, I miss this one the most [don't worry, even though the Rainmaker can run CO2, the tank was just there for display purposes]).   My first pumper:  And a few stock semi and select fire Rainmakers, including this bugger. The VERY FIRST Rainmaker I ever owned. I could never get it to work right, but I loved it because it was what it was.   So fast-forward to the present. After some moaning and groaning, Rainman229 was nice enough to reunite me with an old favorite. Or, a new version of my old favorite. She's picky and stubborn, but here's where I'm at now! :)  She's got: - Rainman229 Pump Kit (that took some work to get out of him ;)) - Mad Marty's Basic Internal Mods - Mad Marty Fitted Delrin Bolt - Mad Marty Stainless Screw Set - TASO Power Barrel (or whatever I feel like running) - NOT PICTURED: AIM Torpedo Knock-Off HPR - SOON TO COME: Mad Marty Back Block ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

Man, you can do ANYTHING to a Rainmaker. Pump, electro, pneumatic, double-barrel, whatever. That's another reason I love 'em. And thanks! ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

I've figured out my pump Rainmaker's (from this point on PRM) name! She'll be called Anna, a throwback to Anna Nicole Smith. She (the PRM) is loud, stubborn, picky, excessively bulky (and no amount of trimming can hide that), ugly, cheap to obtain but expensive to keep, slow, for some reason really interests people and has died on me on more than one occasion. A PERFECT name!

Any pump is a nice pump. Looks good, DeTrev.
