What'd your gun start out as?

[digitard]

Basically most of us have had a gun that we scrounged together what few bucks we could to just get it operational, and over time tweaked it to the beast it is today .... how did yours start?

My mag started as so:
- Classic Mag <b>Standard</b> feed
- 10" GREEN 1996 All American barrel
- coiled remote
- 12oz CO2
- Regular VL200

Now its:
- Polished/Chrome Powerfeed Left body
- 14" Dye Boomstick & 14" CP backup
- 68/3000 PMI
- Revvy 12v w/ Xboard Intelli setup
- Nikel intelliframe w/ blade trigger
- Black Foregrip
- System-x dropforward

Adding a ReTro valve and Level 10 in 2 weeks to finish it off

What'd yours start out as? Here's the pics of what it was, and how it looks now (the 2nd pic is odd angled) ... although in the first pic I had already removed the CO2 and put on the HPA so imagine it with a coiled remote and co2 tank.

[xtremexnyc]

How Mine started out.

Past 1994
Black Minimag
Cooper T expansion chamber 31/2 ounce bottle.
Ans Venturi Bolt
Cooper T on off ASA

Present 2002
Polished Minimag
RT Valve
Inteliframe
Level X
PB wizard Drop forward
Cooper T on off ASA

[Remington]

Heh heh. Mine started out as a powerfeed left automag with a J&J 16" barrel. Vert. ASA and 32* foregrip and a standard AGD frame with cut guard and 2 finger trigger. Also came with a Crossfire 68/3000 tank.

THEN :D :D

I bought a new Benchmark 2 finger trigger frame and a Smart Parts drop forward and then I went crazy. I bought an electric blue Eclipse Splash kit and a ReTro Valve. Then, a new minimag hopper right body and hand polished it. After that I bought a groove trigger Intelliframe and a Level 10. I'm hoping for a warp for Christmas and this summer I'm going to buy a new Flatline. So, basically when all is said and done, it will be one hell of an AGD setup.

[FalconGuy016]

I just got mine :)
- Polished minimag (4 stars)
- Benchmark 2x
- Dye SS 14" barrel
- CP Flame drop
- Smart parts polished foregrip

Mine started out as a z-grip slated for modification to fit a bushy, ala manike ... but instead I picked up the rest of the pieces to make it a retro minimag. I had a norise slated for it, but I traded that off for a classic mag for my wife ... it'll have the norise as soon as I can find another.

[Pvt.Opium]

Well i started with a F4 Illustrator. Then i sold that to some kid down the street. Then about a year later I bought a Minimag. Held that for about 2 months. Then I got the opportunity to take a rip at Schnitzel Emag. Then that day I decided to go for an Emag. 2 Weeks later I had me A Black Emag, 68/3000 Nitro Ducked, Kapp3 drop forward. Thats my story.

[Blazestorm]

Mine started out as a 1200 dollar money order! :D

Evil PIPE
Red Shocktech drop
Red CP On/Off (because the Shocktech on/off sucks!)
Red Revolution

My current marker started out as a classic powerfeed 'mag with blimp on top fed by CO2.

It is now a Black level 10 warped hypermag fed HPA by a flatline. :D

[bryceeden]

Mine started as a paintballgear.com special TKO standard feed. I have added:
a taso lazy z drop forward
an ACI asa adapter
a smartparts teardrop barrel
Dye 2X trigger
Taso slide on site rail
ADCO red-dot site
smartparts gadget forgrip
shocktech charger
agd superbolt
thumb screw velocity ajuster
plastic nubin
steel braided line
and several other parts that have been changed and dicarded on the way.

[PzYcO]

It went from this..

[PzYcO]

to this.. (soon to have xvalve, arriving on monday)

[Paintmanmike]

Guess I should call mine FrankenMag!

Mine started out as parts in bins at Paintball 'n More in Hurst, Texas. I walked in one day looking to upgrade from my Scorpian on a limited budget and they are known for a nice selection of used Cockers. Somehow I ended up with a Mag they built out of used and new parts from stock built to my specs.

Kind of wierd but I've been happy with the results. :D

One of these days I'll get the rail and body powder-coated gloss black to match everything else and it won't be so ugly. Maybe then I'll actually post a pic.

Wow, this was one of the first threads I ever posted in on AO several years ago. and I think I'll resurect it just to see how long it takes people to notice but anyway. That above marker has somewhere along the like turned into a Black ULE E-mag with an LX retrovalve and revolver barrel kit, and a crazy pink mag with a powder coated highrize body and intellframe and what abunch of other stuff(I gave it to my sister and don't have the specs anymore) But thru upgrading and stuff it turned into two markers and I don't think either of them has any of the origonal parts on it anymore.

So, lets see what the younger AOers do to thier markers now.

[turbo chicken]

##Edit###Since this is the mag forum ... i figured i'd stick with the mag ... but my original spyder ... well when i was done nothing but the body was original ... everyother one I had pretty much stayed stock.... and pics to come when I get hoem##Edit##
