Got another Micro to show off here. This one has been up in a different configuration before, but this is the way I'll be running it from here on out.

Spring fed 12 gram happiness. It's not holsterable anymore, but I probably wasn't going to run around with it on my hip anyway. This is optimized for pistol play. :)

The grips are inlay-style sea snail in a dragon knot work pattern. I have to get some better lighting shots of them to see if I can capture the iridescence better. They're very rainbow-y in person.

I used to run the CO2 changer side saddle, but I had problems with the valve freezing up, so back to vert it goes. It's still very pointable, and honestly, the CO2 is easier to change this way anyway.

Nice looking micro... I really like the feed, where did you get it or who did it for you?

Feed is probably off an ariakon or overlord type pistol.

That mod consists of pulling or chopping the feedneck and the magazine just slides on the dove tail like it would on a ariakon or overlord. Very nicely done.

In what situation (game type) would this be used Robert ?
Limited paint ?

I'm interested to see what you do with the new body.
You going to electrify it ?

Looks like a powdercoated classic with an after market back.

I have a back like that and it is for a classic valve.

And since robertsr is famous for his powder coated mags I'm leaning towered more powdercoat...

It's an Arikon spring feed. I did the conversion and the grips myself. The gun is actually duracoated instead of powder coated.

I use it as a pistol primary when I feel like Rambo. :)

The valve back is an ANS? valve I think. Can't tell now that it's been duracoated, but I think that's what it was. Came stock with the milling like that and matched the build perfectly.
