To give you guys a little background info on this mag, I started building it in January of last year. It was the first gun I bought and still is my primary "weapon of choice" (Fat Boy Slim). I bought the classic mag off ebay and then started buying the rest off ebay or for sale forums. As of right now, the only thing left from the original mag is the main body rail, the rest of the parts I put together.

Stats:
Retro Valve
Extended nose foamy (with the rounded/sanded nose=no chops)
Dye Boomstick (powdered to match)
Centerflag Hyperframe
Warpfeed (on/off switch and linked to rev)
Custom made warp bracket (raises approximately one inch, brings in much tighter to gun, and clears bigger tanks) (powdered to match)
Intelli-linked two-faced rev interlinked with warpfeed (evil prop, and warpfeed board) (www.robagd.com)
Warp body (slightly cut/carved)
Smartparts Max-flow (68ci/4500lb)

Powder coating:
This beautiful fade job I just got done by Redrider from AO forums. He did a wonderful job as you can see and charges little for his work. I would highly recommend him to anyone planning on powder coating their gear. Just be very specific in what you want done and be prepared for a wait because quality like this takes a while!

Well here she is in all her bold and beautiful glory!

Stay tuned for "THE CLUB" part duex (Intimidator)

no, i made the bracket myself, also made one for my z-grip that does the same thing only backwords (now my friends z-grip/warp feed mag)

I made it out of a piece of sheet metal from a metal shelf. Took me four try's to get the bracket right for the z and regular 45 frame.

I really like the body rail milling, can you get any more close ups of the body milling?

that powder coating looks sweet too!

i like how you moved the warp, not many people have been doing anything innovative with them (that i have seen).

Hey, glad to see you still have that piece of work. I thought you went completely to the dark side and dumped it for something else. Hope to be on the recieving end of either gun soon enough bud... ;)

no, not really. It does bring it up a little bit, but i feel that bringing it in closer, plus the fact that with the stock bracket it is difficult to fit the warp on with a 68 or larger tank without sticking way out.

I will try and get a good pic of the way it looks tomorrow.

Plus it gives me a shorter warp hose, thus shorter travel time for each ball before they enter the breach.

about $50, including shipping both ways.

It is really just the one single cut to the back that i have done, but i will try and get a little bit better pics tomorrow, but i am only doing this because you asked. ;)

Oh dude, you so will :D

I can put it on 10bps on hyper mode and with the way i have set up the hopper interlinked and no eye, it can keep up with the warp and shoot out the entire hopper without missing a beet :) I am almost certain it could feed faster, but i can't pull the trigger 13 or more bps to find out.

So i will try this warp/hopper setup on my timmy at full auto and find out.

hey, did you here that practice has been moved back a week?

thecavemankevin,

DUDE! Your Warp bracket is not an original idea! I've been building them similar to that for awhile. (same idea different construction)
:D ........ Just playing, but it's true.

Heres a close up from underneath of the cutting on the body, you can see it better with a dark barrel.

i really like the shorter warp hose! i see how the higher loader might be a concern but i have a vl 2000 (the first version of the revy) snd it has a lower profile anyway. thanks for the idea!
