Load Sm5 is Jeff Walldorf for those of you who don't know. Who wants his address? LMK $5 over paypal

they look VERY nice though, I would love to see you make a couple hundred pairs and send them to TK so that they come with the Extremes. When I get my sfl I'll buy a pair. Until then I'll see if you want to make me a pair for my z-grip:).

Well crap, I hate getting a new driver's license. The hassle of having your name forcibly changed.

What are they made out of? Did you dye the one or did you use colored material right off the bat?

acrylic, and the red ones were already colored. I'm going to mess with some RIT dye on the clear ones.

Not yet. They did'nt have the right kind in the small hardware store down the street where theyr're used to me dragging my fully assembled paintball gun inside. I'm going to have to break my gun down to just the grip to take it over to Lowe's and Home Depot. Otherwise I may cause a bit of a scene.

LOL! No joke. I walked into Home Depot near my house with just my iFrame and that still caused a bit of a hassle!

ralicea or other beta testers,

Give us the lowdown on how they perform when you after you get a chance to play with them. Let us know if they get slippery or scratched up easily.

Thanks

Manny-

I'll be running them through the paces this weekend. I'll wet them down a bit and play with them and see if they get slick. I'll report on scratches and any problems Sunday.

I tried them today and they were great as long as you have gloves on. Without gloves they felt hard and could not get a good grip. I got shot on the marker and got paint all over my hand and grip, but paint did not get into the grip's electronics. It would take a direct shot on the trigger frame to get paint into the electronics, but that would be the same with any other electronic marker.

Thanks a lot Jeff...BTW, let me know if you will be selling more. There was a guy at the field that wanted a pair.

Here's a link to www.mscdirect.com an industrial supplier. I have bought boxes of 100 stainless steel screws, in various sizes from them (set screws to fill in the sight rail holes, front trigger frame screws, etc, etc.) A box will run about $5-$8.

You'd need 6-32 flat head cap screws (FHCS), 1/4" or 5/16" long. You measure the entire length of the screw, with flat heads, to determine the over all length.

A box of 100, 6-32 SS FHCS's is $6
