View Full Version : I call it the "Alternative LPR" modification

...All though there really wasn't any modification.

I just got sick of the LPR on my Trilogy, but I didn't have enough cash to pick up a TechT adapter, so I got creative.

I have a CP regulator that I love to death. I completely forgot it had two guage slots. Thinking creatively, I decided to slap my Mini Max-Flo in one of the slots and run the pneumatics pressure that way. The CP reg piveted about two thread too far to be alligned, so I cut the bottom of a plastic cup and made two makeshift washers to reallign it. It warks really good, actually. The kick has been DRASTICALLY reduced, and I'm very happy with it's over all performance.

...But what about the stock LPR slot? Turns out my old Silver Bullet (or Icon, I can't remember) volumizer threads in PERFECTLY. It threads in all the way, the oring seals, and it looks good. I am very happy about it.

Also, it turns out Trilogy's take standard 'Cocker hammers; so I replaced the stock one with a lighter one.

The lighter hammer paired with the volumizer and the lower set LPR gave me *literally* 2300 shots off of a 68ci 4000psi fill. Dead serious. It got 3/4 a case and half a bag of left over Formula 13 and a bag of 500 new and fresh rounds of Marblizers.

PICS!!

...And the bussiness end (I accidently flipped it in Paint when making the pics lower res. My bad...):

Although it's not a real "mod" per-se, it's still unusual and different. And believe it or not, the LPR doesn't get in the way of my hand. I'm thinking about drilling and tapping just underneath the volumizer slot so I can get it completely off the CP reg, though. Just to make it look cleaner.

The gun is still very stock. I'll be getting a new trigger frame, new bolt, TechT "Shaft" kit, and I'll possibly be hacking off the feedneck and threading it for Angel feednecks.

Nice work - creative thinking and innovation. It looks pretty good too, not like some hack job. I firmly believe that friends don't let friends touch Triologies, but nice work nonetheless.

ps You might wanna lose the OSU shirt...down 20 points at the half and they aren't looking too good.

We're still the only team to beat THREE #2 teams in one season... ever. So back off! :mad:

And thanks for the compliments! :D

Where the hell is the pump kit?

I'm going to pneu-assist another Trilogy, so I'm saving the pump kit for that one.

Don't worry, though. I've decided the "Type X" 'Cocker I scored is going to be pump.. It'll be nice. ;)

Josh, you going to the pump only day? I'll be there. Shoot me a pm with directions. I've got one other person going for sure. (Snowball. The one who got shot in the neck)

Just thinking. I may actually have the pneu-assist done by the 20th (I just need to grab an Eclipse ring and do some drilling).

Josh, you wouldn't happen to be willing to sell your AT kit, would you? Pneu-assist is just pointless without an AT... :rolleyes:

Yup. My finger's still pointed at the screen.

Nice job on the trilogy. Good thinking, and good implementation. You might want to look into one of these ASA extenders and drill and tap it for the LPR:

and in answer to the tangent:
I still say there should be a playoff system in place that way there's no doubting the two teams who meet for the championship...
