 Topic: THE 98C THAT MAKES SENCE!Posted: 09 December 2005 at 7:25pm |

This is my Tippmann 98C:
I removed the origonal braided cable and replaced it with a male adapter going directly into the powertube. The remote line I have serves as a reliable expansion aparatus. After removing the ASA threads from underneath the grip I decided that I would use the two holes already there to build a solid stock. Unlike other bulky expensive stocks (why people buy them I have no idea) my stock does not hinder my mask or line of sight straight down the shroud of my flatline barrel. I ground a hole through my front sight and placed a fiber optic bead in it which makes aiming a bit easier if my mask fogs. The tube clips I use are 20+3 and allow me to remove the hopper from my line of sight and removes a large and easy target from my opponents when I crawl or manuver (I not exactly trigger happy anyway). You might think the tube idea is crazy but look at what we all used to use in the 1980s, the tube doesnt jam because I have it set at a constant 15 degree angle. I embedded sling adapters into the back of the stock and using the first screw hole of the flatline shroud. The suppressor in the pic is MOCK. It is hollow on the inside and is purely for show. The rocket cock prevents dirt and debris from getting in my gun while manuvering. Overall I've had my 98 for as long as I can remember and I will never part with it. I've put blood and sweat into my gun and it serves me well. Tippmann guns are all I use. (the paintjob is also my work, its rough but it works. Paintjobs are nothing special anyway...) Overview: 98C, Flatline, Rocket-cock II, smartparts sticky grips, custom stock, male adapter to remoteline off of powertube, custom MOCK suppressor, custom stock off of grip, custom sighting, custom paintjob, custom tube direct-feed system, sling Edited by MajinKai |

Thnx for the good comments, this is one of the most rugged and ergonomic guns you'll see. I've tested many ideas and this is the conclusion of nine years of owning this gun. I believe in only modding your gun if it affects your performance in the game. Plus, I've spent a third of the money most guys with 'cosmetic' dress-up kits do. My stuff works and is practicle.

Wow that's so fugly.... in a totally awesome sort of way.
It does look very ergonomic, and I love the gas-line-going-through-the-grip mod, or whatever exactly you did. Definately a Custom 98 Custom. |

First off, your English doesn't make SENSE. Notice the "S" in place of the "C". I like the paint job. It looks great. I like the flatline, but not the MOCK surpressor, the double trigger, or the stock. I especially hate the tube, but that is just my opinion. |

It would make a good gun for a "sniper"(only word I could think to describe)

Being as there are no snipers in paintball, it wouldn't make a very good marker for a sniper.

I like it. I'm not a fan of the double trigger though when you're shooting 20 round tubes.

Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good.

Well first off, I bought the double trigger when I first got my gun so I just decided to keep it on there for the hell of it. Secondly I agree that THERE ARE NO SNIPERS IN PAINTBALL. My gun is fairly accurate but I'm not going any further then that. And the mock suppressor I made because I have entirely too much time on my hands...heh Edited by MajinKai |

No reason to jump on my back about it, if you have something to say about my marker then say it.

Not jumping on your back, it just annoys people when people post incorret stuff to make themselves look better. I'm not saying that was your intent, but you get the point.
