Thank you!!!!

I had another AB w/Egrip on preorder, then when I got it I took it out and cut the hole for the battery in this ABT and installed the Egrip. I then sold the extra ABT. all said and done the egrip cost me $40!

I probably ended up spending a total of $500 on this marker between internal upgrades, all the way to paint...

It was well worth it to end up with such a unique Alpha!

Thank you!

NEXT PROJECT:

I am currently turning an old 98 into a Dragunov.

This project will be progressing much slower but I will be posting pics soon!

Thanks! I deff put alot of hours into working on this marker... I never clocked my work though so I can't give you an actual #! Time or money was not a big deal to me... although the GF gets angry when my marker gets more attention! Ha!

Thanks again Man!

hey man that gun looks sick!  i love the paint job. how durable is it? do you think you can paint mine like that? PM me the price. id REALLY appreciate it.

oh, is that e-grip the WAS board? i know that the AB is made in china but is it the same as the WAS or is a bit different?

What make are the barrel and RIS system and where did you get them? They're exactly what I've been looking for!

You can find the barrel http://www.pntball.com/Items/rism4barrel98?&caSKU=rism4barrel98&caTitle=16%22%20Tippmann%2098%20Custom%20RIS%20Tactical%20Paintball%20Barrel - here.

Word of advice: the stock screws that hold on the rails are str8 up pieces of garbage... Change them out with some longer screws from your local hardware store... All in all its a great system but i do not know why this all metal set up has composite rails... If you want to add a vertical grip i suggest you pusrchase a metal rail to replace the bottom one.

Hope this helps!

hey dude. I'm seriously considering getting this barrel. How accurate is it? and how loud is it? Is it a good barrel?

All you need to do is take a file and file the Lip on the Cyclone Adapter down to properly fit inside the Groove on the Alpha Black
