Good snag, you can hit the bst & get a better body cheap. That one looks a little rough.

Howdy,
I would look into a new grip frame. I don’t much appreciate those cut off trigger guard mods. I also agree with the new body idea... their isn’t much there for a elbow to hold onto.
A ule body and a intelliframe or y-grip would make that gun really smokin’. But that barrel is exactly like one that I have and it would be a shame to not be able to use it... get a new powerfeed body for it.
Welcome back
:cheers:

What's the DOT number (or whatever it is corresponding to your country) on the tank? I know the DOT 11194s switched to 5 year hydros after June 02 I believe, but don't quote me on that date.

Seems so. Here's a table for reference for you as well. http://www.luxfercylinders.com/products/paintball/specifications/us_imperial.shtml

Just in case you have any doubts.

definatly need a trigger guard. Man I remember back when RT's first came out I put a double trigger on. My trigger guard was a paper thin piece of banding. Man how times have changed
