First day with my Z-Grip!

[MajorDamage]

OK! I played with my Z-Grip Saturday! I only got 3 games in because my bolt got stuck in my barrel when I was chroning in, and it took a while to get that out. Then I had to replace my quickdisconnect o-ring. Plus I reffed a game and stuff. But ANYWAYS...

I played with it and it is VERY comfy! Im just having trouble with accuracy now cuz I have to hold it diffrent, and im trying to get used to an offset tank, and the Z-Grip. But I think its great! I played two games with these really good guys who were having a practise, and one game I played with some newbies. The newbie game was funny though. I ran for the snake off the break, and I only had about 200 rounds. I get to the middle of the feild, and I hold off three people for a while, one kid said I had paint pretty much wizzing past his head, but I still managed to not get him. So after im outta paint, I just keep shooting some. After a lil' bit, I run all the way back to almost the starting station (It was newbies, dont even think i was shot at), then I tell the one guy left on my team to advance and id cover him. I start fanning the trigger real quick and he gets there easily. Then I move again (I was way front left, then back middle, then moved to right front/middle) and then the kid runs outta paint. It was elimination, so I was dead and just called it quits. But I thought it was pretty funny how I got to move so many places without even really getting shot at. But yeah, Z-Grip is great! Planning on playing alot on saturday to really give it the test!

ENDO!

great to hear you had a good time with your Z-Grip... the next question is, how many players, newbies and experienced players alike, asked you if they could 'hold your marker' http://www.automags.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

[MajorDamage]

Well there was like 6 really good guys there, and I think they all held it, and asked about the warp and Z-Grip, and about every newbie there asked what they were, and how I liked them. I got numerous compliments on how cool my gun is. http://www.automags.org/ubb/smile.gif GOOOO AGD!

lol, and the curse of the Z-Grip and Warp continues! it'll be great when we can take a warp to the field and have it as commonplace as the agitated loader... on the other hand, do we really want everyoe to have the warp advantage? http://www.automags.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

[MajorDamage]

I like having everyone look at it! It gets more "OOH!"s and "AHH!"s than any of the electros, or cockers or anything. Also I havnt even seen another warpfeed at any of the feilds around here. It'll be a REAL eye grabber after I get my Flame paintjob!

yeah, I know the feeling, I run with a ReTro Minimag with Warp and Z-Grip, the attention is great... kinda like an auto inflate for you head/ego http://www.automags.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

[MajorDamage]

yeah, we pretty much have the same thing. I have a black powerfeed ReTro with warp, z-grip, and flatline(and other things like dropforward, offset plate, and soon to have my foregrip and extender installed) and it gets a ton of looks because its so freaky looking! I love it!

OMG, mine is a black teflon Minimag, with ReTro, warp, Z grip, and KAPP DZII, and I should be getting my Flatline soon.... freaky... also have a black/silver/green splash anodize sight rail and body rail, looks nice, Id have a foregrip extender on mine, but I now support my paintgun by the tank and/or warp. how does your flatline fit with the warp and Z grip combination?

[MajorDamage]

!HEY! I hold mine by tank too, but am gonna put the foregrip on just incase, and also it'll look cooler when I get my paintjob to have that done with it, cuz mags are so small, I wont have a whole lot to get powdercoated without it.

My Flatline and warp fit fine. I Have an offsetplate that moves them over some, the warp sticks out about an inch or so more than it did, cuz I have that in as close to the tank as I can get it. Its real cool. Im gonna post some picture when I get some developed. I have a 12" All American, 10" 32 Degrees Carbon Fiber, and a 12" J&J Ceramic barrel on mine. And a Red PsychoBallistics dropforward. i think its pretty cool looking.

ENDO!

Odd- I get more people wanting to hold my 'cocker than my Z-Grip mag, and my 'cocker has nothing special but a cut off trigger gaurd to accomidate a double trigger. My Mag has a Z-Grip. Ahh well.

sounds nice, Ive got a Freak barrel and an old 32* carbon fiber... both nice, Ive got a nice foregrip that came with my exclipse kit, but I dont know if I want it on there, I never use it... Ive been considering making my own foregrip extender, so it doesnt move it forward as much... if anything, it would be for cosmetics than actual use. I dont have my tank offset with my Z-Grip, I dont find it bothersome at all, more comfortable if anything, I use it to brace my wrist against and steady my shot moreso.

[MajorDamage]

...weird. My 32 Degrees Carbon Fiber is one of the older ones, without the cool milling. And Id pretty much be using my foregrip for cosmetics. Unless I liked the feel, which I may I donno. But yeah, sounds like a cool gun man.

lol, what a coincidence, my carbon fiber is one without the milling too, and once my tank comes, aside from teh barrel, and mainbody, our guns are basically identical, I defenetly want to see some pics http://www.automags.org/ubb/smile.gif

[MajorDamage]

yeh, thats pretty sweet! whats ur email addy? Mine is gameriggincarnie@hotmail.com I will prolly have some pictures in about two weeks. I wanna take some pics saturday If I get to play. I should have my foregrip extender milled to fit by then, cuz I want a picture of a pretty much finished version of my gun, aside from paintjob. Im gonna have to start working on a new gun now that ive pretty much finished this one. im thinking about eather a Emag, Blazer, Impulse, or Shocker. Im planning on shooting an impulse soon, and my buddy has a Shocker, but I havnt really messed with it. Maybe he'll let me use it for a game, and he can try out my warp/z-grip http://www.automags.org/ubb/smile.gif (He's left handed tho so it'll mess him up hehe). But my gun is pretty much complete!
