Here some of those pics.
Pardon the dinosaur, it doesn't bite. Here are two Spyder 68's. The gold one is a classic I was restoring, then all hell broke loose in my head when I realized I could fit a BT Rip Clip hopper on it if I mounted an Empire Trracer picatinny rail on top of it. I need to deburr some slag inside the top bore from when I tapped the threads to fit the rail. The black one is a friend's marker that needs some fresh o-rings.
Below the Spyders are two pistols. One Tiberius T8.1 and a BT SA17. The Tib will be a back up marker for scenarios when I'm using my "sniper" rifle. Pics of the sniper in a minute.
Here's s pic of that Amboyna Burl pump handle. The figure on this thing is rediculous!
Another pump. A Trilogy that I had fitted with CCM lower internals and a nice CCM 45 frame...
...that was taken off to be put on this bad boy! 2K right feed half block mini'd pump. This thing weighs nothing. The mill work and half block pieces were done by a friend that does amazing work. This one is gonna be killer!
Last, here is that sniper I was talking about. Magfed Spyder Hammer 7. I plan to only use First Strike rounds with this. For those that don't know; First Strikes are like pellet shells, but for paintball. They have a finned rear section that allows them to spin; making 150 yard shots with accuracy a reality. This one is fitted with a Hammer reverse spiral rifled barrel to help pre-spin the FS round for extra distance and accuracy. The pump handle was cut down and fitted with a short picatinny rail to mount a Magpul AFG grip.
Nelson based pumps are notorious for being high pressure markers (stock, this one runs around 900psi @ 300 fps), so internal mods were made to fit high volume, low pressure internals from another marker. After modding, I'm now around 650 psi @ 300fps with ordinary rounds. I've got to send this off for one more modification; but I'm shooting for 450-509psi @ 300fps with the First Strike rounds. The chromed regulator on the back will receive a black bike grip cover when the modding is done.
From the grip down:
I filled the hollow grip frame with Amazing acrylic resin , and then poured another batch of resin while the frame was sitting in a mold to form the palm rest.
Below that, I mounted a JCS folding stock, removed the butt, and mounted a short picatinny rail in the butt's place. This allowed me to use an offset 1" scope mount to mount a modified duckbill asa in preparation for using the 13/3K bottle as the stock.
I wanted to be able to fold this up and place in a scabbard when sniping no longer is useful during the game. At which point I would begin using the Tiberius pistol as my close combat marker.
I'll have to dig it out; but I have a neat bull pup Ion I was working on, fitting the marker into an airsoft AUG2. Pics if that later.
glad that I made 5 good ones.....
