Well after asking and thinking a lot I finally got round to drilling and tapping a hole for a Cocker detent in my 98, just enough time to find Tinman's 98 on Youtube with Shocker detents which annoyed me as I though I was going to be the first to do this but hey ho, and great job by Tinman.

Anyway here is a list of everything I've doen since the last thread:
-Cocker detent
-Bob Long Torpedo reg
-Filled in push safe/fire and saftey warning
-Filled in casting mark near the serial number on the right hand reciever
-Filled in the area round the rear sight
-Filled in the velocity adjustment hole
-Gemerally smoothed everything off more

And specs are:
-WAS E-grip
-Torpedo reg
-Freak Kit
-Rhythm Innovations Magnetic trigger
-Unbranded drop forward and on/off
-Maddman spring kit
-Empire Reloader B

You can pretty much see everything ive done in the pictures so let me know what you think. Ive tried to keep the page small but the rest of the images can be found here --> [URL="http://www.putfile.com/album/155557"http://www.putfile.com/album/155557/URL'> http://www.putfile.com/album/155557"]http://www.putfile.com/ album/155557[/URL]

Well remembered about the dropforward and me not knowing whether to keep it. In the end it was a complete fluke that I'm keeping it. I always wanted the paint scheme to be 2 stripes but never knew what colour. So in the end decided satin balck and candy apple green and then once everything was done realised how good a match it was with the drop so looks like ill be keeping it lol. Ive also got a 1.5l tank too which is longer then my 0.8l from the previous pictures so I really do need the drop.

It looks great. I love the milling and color.

The only thing I don't like is the HUGE drop.

CAN YOU TAKE CLOSE UP PICS OF THE DETENTS INTERNALLY?

I certainly can do just give me a bit and ill get on it.

An e-bolt would be very very verys nice indeedy but its the new style recievers and also e-bolts are gold dust in the UK so I would have to ship one over from somewhere. But I have always though about a custom system using my own ram, noid etc like clone is doing with his cheytac but thats something for the future I think.

 And thanks to everyones compliments and comments, nice to know that all the hard work was for a good reason

That thing is beautiful.

The only 98 i've ever seen that looked better had an e-bolt and an angel 90* gripframe.
