Kwik175's Shockwave Build

[kwik175]

Well the title is wrong since all I did was fund this project. The real builder of this gun was of course Loguzzzzzzz. I went to him with an idea and thru much talent and time it came to be. First The Z frame went to Luke for milling and grips. Then off to California for John to work his magic.We decided to go with a UTB and electronic noid to avoid the LPR. All of this was being done while XMT completed the Shockwave bodies. Shockwave done and shipped to Loguzzzz. Next came Bazooka Boy providing anno, in Oregon. Somewhere along the line I started talking to Maghog and he blessed my gun with one of his amazing triggers, shipped from Germany. Back from Bazooka for final assembly and testing at Loguzzzzz. Its been a long year and 3 months since this started and with alot of help from all over this country and other parts of our world her she is:

Wow .... it came out very nice.

[Flatliner333]

Very nice. I was hoping someone would vary the colors on this body to accent the lines. An electronic Z grip I believe that is a first (?) and a MagHog trigger to boot...very nice indeed sir...well played. :cheers:

Sexy :wow:

Very nice. You got a custom marker from five sources faster than most marker pre-orders. That is a nice EM layout in that z-frame.

[Freedy500]

That is up there in my sexiest mags ever list. I can not describe its beauty.

[knownothingmags]

the guys you sent it to did good work.
props to everyone involved.

im going to have the lines accented like this when i get mine done.

amazing just amazing guys.

[SoulCoffin]

once again, awesome work by loguzzz... and of course everyone else who made the pieces. never saw an e-z grip before. :cheers:

i think you should nickname it "red velvet"... the squiggle sorta reminds me of icing.

[kwik175]

Thanks to all the guys who helped on this and thanks for the compliments. Over a year takes alot of patience. I actually forgot about it for a while until it was time to send another payment out to get one more step done. By far the best project Ive been involved in. Loguzzzzz and I also believe its a first for the frame.

[Freedy500]

Im lovin the red velvet suggestion. You should definitely name it that if it hasn't been named yet.

[kwik175]

John has been calling it the " Z-Lectro " in our PM's back and forth and thats about as far as weve gotten. Its a great name for the frame design for sure but havent quite named her yet.

[OPBN]

:clap: Very nice.

[Freedy500]

this somehow made PB-Nations FB page. I was happy to see this pic get some love.

[kwik175]

I'm not really sure how it made it to PBN's Facebook page but I think its cool. It got alot of exposure there. Heres the link if interested in reading the comments. They did a Hot or Not poll on it.

[BTAutoMag]

I commented, BTW I love the comment "I feel old when people ask "what is it"" :rofl: :rofl:

[kwik175]

Thanks for the comments. I read thru them and some were positive but the bad ones seemed almost violently bad. Its amazing how closed minded people are. My favorite was " Its not last years gun with a new color ". Good stuff. Im just glad all the work the builders put into this got that attention. It went out to over 21,000 people.

[tbaggin]

that is nice my friend. Loguzzzzz does do some nice work.

[OPBN]

Honestly, I think most of the negative comments pretty much sums up what is so wrong with peanutbutter and possibly the mentality of paintball as a whole. Someone builds a marker from the ground up with massive amounts of custom work, not just a current marker with fancy ano, and all the confused aggtards that probably barely know how to change the batteries on their markers hate on it. It seriously pisses me off actually. There is no respect anymore for true custom work. Reminds me of the kids that bolt on exhausts, wings and vinyl cutouts onto their rice mobiles and then hate on a ground up resto rodded 69 Camaro.

Shooting video please :shooting:

[BTAutoMag]

no, no video... come over and let me shoot it :dance:

[Flatliner333]

"Red Light District" cause that thing is pure electric sex on a stick.

[kwik175]

Video coming soon. I live in PA and am still dealing with crappy monsoon weather. Its been raining or snowing for a week now. Shot some reballs thru it today to get a rough chrono. Wife hates when I put holes in the pillows from doing that. OPBN, I know what you mean. They just look for the next overpriced gun from Dye or PE. Not hating on those brands in particular, I own a CSL, but thats all those kids know.

Don't even think about the trolls you get on FB and YT. Those are the people that give us our $300, year-old markers.

The kids that are commenting badly are REALLY pissing me off. I want to show them what a zak vetter RT effect is like. :cuss: :cuss: :cuss: :cuss: They are just jealous of the build. This is officially my favorite marker. Best one I have ever seen. :wow:

[BTAutoMag]

lets invite them to tunaball :mad:

about the same thing here with my ulmag cant shoot it because i live in an apartment. but i do have practice this weekend. hope PSP is working lol :D

[kwik175]

I didnt realize that they would just keep going after day2. Thats good I guess. Any reaction is good right? So many guns out there now envoke no reaction at all. The companies are now struggling with what to change to say its new and keep buyers coming back year after year. Even PE realized that you cant keep coming up with new innovations to attract buyers, hence no Ego12.

Great built - the electro Z is a really nice touch :cool:

[RT Lover]

sexxxxxxxyyyyy!!!!!!!!!


I love it, u have to give me details on the electro mod!!!! pm if u could keep ur thread clean

B-b-but 69 Camaro's are disgusting! :ninja:

But a sexy gun indeed, was thinking of doing the colors on the ridges the same on mine whenever I get everything assembled to get it to anno.

Nice use of the shockwave body! Those sure were time consuming and very expensive to produce.

can we just declare this mag of the month? we dont need a vote :p

[Flatliner333]

Since it was suggested that your beast resembles a Red velvet cake I find it only fitting that you destroy said cake with full on stupid sicko uncapped psycho mode while screaming die agglets die....and the chicken suit idea is cool but only if you have the chicken dance music in the background. :shooting:

[BTAutoMag]

ok, I will have to appologise as we are all being a little unrealistic...

on a serious note... if you shoot this mag without an epic Tom mustache we WILL ban you

kwik175: Looks great! You are putting together a great collection of custom anodized automags!! Do you have any pictures of the other side? :cheers:

[Freedy500]

I give up going for MOTM. You deserve MUCH more than I ever will. This is to beautiful. Besides my picture got stretched out to much and looks crappy. But it either way it doesnt look as good as this sexy beast! :hail:

[kwik175]

Well here is how my morning went: Woke up fairly late, and remembered the camera needed charged. Put the last of my paint( maybe 100 rounds ) in the hopper and aired up for this infamous video. Put the camera on the back of my truck and hit record. Walked out into the driveway and held the gun in a firing position then went back and stopped the camera. Checked the footage for distance and everything looked good. Erased the video and started again this time with live fire. Emptied the hopper and went back to stop the video. And as usual, battery was dead. I had hoped that it recorded something so I brought it in and charged it for a while. Checked with my laptop and of course nothing was on the camera. I charged it all day so we should be good to go tomorrow. I got more paint while I was out today. Im glad I waited though, after seeing all the responses I definitely need to put together something special. Video tomorrow.

Well I checked that link to see who was on there giving appraisels and it turns out lately that its mpsd. I knows he's also a member here and posts regularly as I recognized his name. Most anybody else over there surely wouldnt know. Although I was surprised at the responses on their FB page.

[kwik175]

Heres a link to the rest of my collection if anybody is interested. I do not have all the guns shown there anymore as I have been liquidating them lately to pay for other projects. Mainly a saltwater set up my wife decided we needed.

Thanks bro! I wasn't aware of all your non-agd goodies :eek: Lately I've been treating my paintball collecting like classic cars... Own it for a while and let someone else appreciate it. Then buy a few more... :D

that aurora musta cost a small fortune

I started doing the same thing also. Ive sold a few lately to put together a salt water tank. The black and silver splash minimag, vapor, and aurora impy all found new homes this month but paid for my setup thus far. I try to keep an open mind on guns and really look for custom pieces. That first cocker is Chris Shanks' prototype for his Spine Collection. That Shocker is Pooty's personal gun combining a RL body with a ND frame and a bunch of custom milling done to all of it.

[knownothingmags]

didnt know if you saw, or cared.

but i was just givin ya crap on PBN. :D
your collection is pretty sexy.

people were pmin me sayin i was stupid and didnt know what a was talking about.

lol its funny.

[kwik175]

I barely had a chance to read the comments but I am responding today. Its all in good fun and I know that. At least over here on AO we are like family, not back stabbing with comments like on other sites.
