Basically I have this matrix that I am very sure I will never, ever be rid of due to the current pricing system...So I wonder what I should do with it. It's a great maker but I have a bunch of great markers and I don't need another on the wall thats "just another electro"


I thought about maybe converting it into something milsim-ish and relatively unique. Due to the compartively quiet sound of a spool valve firing as opposed to a 98/a5 I thought I might put it in an almost "sten" sort of body. Rotating the breech 90 degrees to accomodate a spring fed tube that would act like a loader and be protected by a "clip" that would encase it (cosmetically) but its 4am so I may need second opinons.


What would you do with it?

add a three way and make it mechanical. That is what I have always wanted to do to one.

I would like to see how you would do that with a trix.....


Its a shame how under apprecited a lot of the older markers are. That "dm3" was a fine piece, the culmination of much experiance in that design at the end.
GL with your decision. I personally wouldn't do anything permanent to it.

It was called the Omega, it was a pneu-mech matrix, and it was the original

edit: the omega was just a prototype
