Well, here are some pics of my A4 Fly and a friend's '04 Speed I was doing some work on for him (pretty funny, at least for me, considering his gun is what made me get an Angel in the first place). I think this is where I'm leaving my Fly at for a while, it works for me and nothing I can really complain about at all. Sure, its not the latest or greatest, but it certainly was back in its day (love picking up what was once a $1500 marker for $300 ) and its definitely not a far cry from todays high-ends. Anyways, here they are:




And mine alone with new SPD grips I had made:

I absolutely LOVE A4 Flys. My 2nd favorite.
First favorite being a G7 Fly.

The A4 Fly has always been my dream marker. It was the top of the line when I really started playing paintball past just backyard games and such, and it was featured in one of the few paintball magazines I own. Especially after shooting the Speed you see above, I knew I wanted one.
As much as I love it, I still wish I had a 'cocker just to mess around with. I'll probably get one sometime in the future, but much I'm also looking to buy an acoustic electric guitar sometime soon and that is taking priority as it stands now.

That's the thing about 'cockers. Once you're bitten by the fever, you never recover! I always keep at least one 'cocker derivative in my collection. Right now, it looks like it's going to be a Ripper Sniper. Maybe an Osiris.

Nice looking Angels. What's the pattern on the grips?

Its the Angel "A" logo with the stylized "Angel" written under it and designer-like "X"'s in between. Basically:
AXAXAXA XAXAXAX AXAXAXA XAXAXAX
'A' being the logos and 'X' being the design.

Ugh, the more and more I think about it, the more and more I want a 'cocker again. I'll probably make the decision after I play with this thing at a scenario the first week in June. I don't think I'll ever be happy, but I don't possess the money for multiple markers, which is a terrible position to be in...
