Looks really nice. But, also looks heavy as crap.

Very true. My excuse is that I am 6'3" and don't really hide well so front player is usually out for me and I actually like the weight. Keeps it nice and steady. I will say however that I am almost done making SFL RT Pro with a Halo and MaxFlow. Probly be 1/3 that weight of this baby :p

Is that a warp bracket you used to mount your tank?

Good idea to balance the whole setup.

Actually no. I just made that piece and buffed it up to a mirror gloss. I found that with the stubby 88ci I could not fit the warp on and reach the fill nip using that Shochtech dropforward. So I killed 2 birds with 1 stone; balanced and it can fill :)

here is with the 16" Freak. I don't shoot people with it, I just tap them on the sholder :D

wow man, that is the nicest rt i have ever seen. It looks like the fade/splash that the 1st emags had.

If you wouldnt mind could you pm what it cost you?

Yes I was looking for that same job as it was the first non-gaudey splash job I liked ;)

This is it.

And finally... Head on. Look! the lvl 10 in there.

oh my god,you havent really seen it till youve seen it in person. it may be heavy, but you dont want to run into a wall of paint from that thing. its a beast.
:D

Yeah, its beautiful all right. My favorite part was when Z-man, after ripping off a blazing fast string right before a game, looked at me and said "I'm not sweet-spotting, I just pull the trigger that fast." Sure....

In fact, I remember sitting out a game, and while waiting in the, uh, waiting area, I heard Z-man starting to lay down his usual 1000 or so rounds. As the ceaseless full-auto sound continued, more and more people turned around to look at him, until everyone there was just staring at him plastering his side of the tape. Fast trigger pull my buttocks...

His RT is so nice it makes me want to get one as a backup.

Simply Beautiful.. Kudos for you.

The only thing I would do is cut the feed tube down and get an anno'd plug to match. But that's just my opinion...

Z-man
08-09-2003, 07:46 PM
YES YES MORE MORE! I love the attention!

As a matter of fact you unbelievers ;) I was not using the rapidfire on the RT (not MUCH). And I did cut down the feedtube and punched a hole in the Revy to see if I like it. I have a pict of it up in the "I Need to See Fades" post but, my ego is so swollen from your coments, Ill poost it here too.

Yes, it is indeed nice. And now you will sell it to me for a ridiculously low price. I command it.

Z-man
08-09-2003, 08:19 PM
you know once the new RT Pros come out with all the ULE stuff these old RT's will have very little value. I bet you will be able to get one for around $200 + $100 warp +$40 Revy + $200 ano (with 5 other barrels) + $200 for some tank.

Howz about I sawp you the gun for you leaving my T.A.G post alone hehe ;) j/k

ZAust
08-09-2003, 08:28 PM
i usually dont like splashes, but when i saw this one in person my draw dropped. this gun is REALLY nice. imo, the pics dont even do it justice. and he shoiots crazy fast with it. i remember the game where he shot 1200 rounds. insane. plus the guys named zach.. even if he spells it weird. now if only he could find his way to chevys...

Steelrat
08-09-2003, 08:56 PM
That wasnt even the gun he uses, if I remember correctly. Carrying a gun like that around all day would make him look like a fiddler crab (You know, has one big arm...).

I'm so confused about what to get as a backup im all over the damn place. RT, Impy, Angel, etc etc. Why is life so difficult.

And about that rapid fire. Sure it wasnt sweet spotting *wink wink, nudge nudge, say no more* And I'll get back to you on that bridge you wanted to sell me.

Looks, like the splash I have on my E-Mag. Very nice.

ZAust
08-10-2003, 01:46 AM
oh, of course he can pull the trigger that fast!!!;) he shoots that fats with the help of a little friend i like to call, an input pressure of 950 psi. :D

nice nice, i would love to see the twins this sat, think you can make it out to scp z-man?

Z-man
08-10-2003, 01:58 AM
I just might be able to swing it. I hear rumors that my Halo B might be arriving by then and you know what that means. 5 cases not 4 this time! :cool:

sps16
08-10-2003, 02:11 AM
oh good lord, is that a halo on the warp? what happened to the TSA?

Z-man
08-10-2003, 02:17 AM
well... I have to use a non-sound activated hopper on the Warp as I founf that it's far to quite for the sensor. The Halo B was originally for the RT Pro but who's gonna stop me from putting it on the Warp if I use that? :) I think that is just what I'll do if it shows up.

...I think I'll ALSO FIND THE STUPID CHEVEY'S so certain "swine-like" rumors about the AO day go away ;)

Littlepaintballboy has made that Chevys crack a fixture in every NorCal post he makes. You better be able to find that place blindfolded. We'd love to see you there, I want to shoot some mech mags, as Im thinking of getting one as a backup.

I am moving all the discussion over to my T.A.G post that was so quickly hijacked. Gotta leave this thread for people to tell me how wonderful my hardware is.

well my old one sold for more then i paid for it, thats always good, now i just gotta get another one buy saturday

Steelrat

Its so nice Im looking for RTs for sale. That should make you feel proud. Now I'll just need you to hook me up with whoever did your anno.

Steelrat
08-10-2003, 02:32 AM
Wait, you need people to tell you how good your hardware is? Feeling a little inadequate...? ;)

My hardware speaks for itself. Everyone knows where I am and they don't come charging over. Good enough for me.

Steelrat

They'd never make it. I know, I was on the opposing team once or twice. All we could do was cower behind out bunkers and pray for a gentle long-range hit.

Z-man
08-10-2003, 02:41 AM
I was playing today at T..G and I had someone describe it very well.

He said it's like a sprinker at times, you just hear the shots hitting bunkers on one side of the field and hear the spreay just make it's way along the whole width and back.

...course I never hit anything but it's like a freez frame so my team and saunter up the field... hopefully.

Now lets see how you can tie this into my artistic side. The sprinker aspect combined with the riverdance could very well be the grounds for a sig pict!

Steelrat
08-10-2003, 03:11 AM
I gotta tell you, Im totally confused by the pricing on that web page for the anno. Bottom line: How much did it run you (if you dont mind me asking) and was that some special rate?

Z-man
08-10-2003, 03:20 AM
Yeah it is a bit out of date. Those prices reflected the HUGE surge in prices when anoing your gun was REALLY pimp. Now that most companies ship with an ano of some kind the prices have fallen way down again.

Bottom line:

I emailed these guys directly to get a price quote and for about $240 (no special price) I got my 2 color reverse fade, 2 color splash ano on 10 pieces. They didnt even care if it was all adding up to a gun, so I had them do all the RT and then 5 different barrels to go with it. if you are gonna get your Viking done I suggest that you call them directly. The guys name is Darren Shannon and he is very nice to deal with.

All you have to do is take off all non-aluminum stuff off the parts you want anoed. They strip off the old coatings, ano and buff it up real nice. What's more they are fast (2 weeks from the day I shiped it out)

Steelrat
08-10-2003, 03:24 AM
Negative on the Viking. AKA puts on a type 3 anno, which is tough as nails. ANd when you strip it, it voids your lifetime warranty. No thanks.

Im planning ahead for my next acquisition ;)

Z-man
08-10-2003, 03:28 AM
ahhh yes well lifetime warranty beats ANY ano job... well almost.

I am going to have PK do my other RT as soon as I find the best rout to have my Rail made ULE or just buy one when it comes out (still not sure about it). It's a real temptation to get a Y-Frame to go with this RT Pro ad have both the intelli and the Y anoed togther but I need to try one out first. If you get an RT I demand that you get a Y-grip so I can test this!

thank goodness. I have my bed right next to the computer so keep resting and then hearing the little chime for new posts and I was ready to call it quits. College life is jst as easy to fall out of as it is to get into.
