    Building from scratch: What parts?

    Body: Karta.
    Barrel: Just pipe, anything should do :-)
    X-valve.
    Frame: Something light, with switch for feeder control. Any ideas?
    Low profile, matching feed neck?

    Small parts & fasteners? Will I find all these on the AGD site?

    Air tank? Do all the HPA tanks have on-off/bleeder valves, adjustable regs? What's a good site for getting real info on these?

    You'd need about a whole website to answer all of those questions!! Good thing AO's here. I'll tackle a few. You will probably find it cheaper to buy a used mag w/ most of the parts you are looking for already. There are several screws, pins and stuff other than just the main pieces. They are all in the AGD store but it is usually less expensive to but them used, already attatched. As for tanks not all are adjustable and most don't have their own bleed valves. Centerflags are the only ones I know that are adj. and have bleeding on/offs. Of course unscrewing a screw in is your bleed there! I use Centerflag adj's. and a flatline. They are both great adj. tanks. :) Oh, on the frame I'd suggest a Y.

      I have basically done what you are going to do and here is what i suggest:
      - ULE mainbody
      - Evil Pipe barrel system
      - X-valve (this is a must have)
      - Intelliframe
      - ULT trigger kit
      - you will find all the little bits and pieces on the agd site

      These are the components for my gun and with them i can walk my trigger easily, they work great, but you should try to look on Ebay first and see if you can get a deal with some of that stuff already, it will save you a bunch.
      I also recomend you look at the AGD site for yourself and also highly recommend pbreview.com because you can see that everybody thinks this stuff is good.
      :cry: I had a paintball gun and i knew how to use it :cry:

        Another option would be to get the ULE Custom deal, sell the ULE body, and buy a karta. If your buying everything new, that would be the cheapest and simplest way to go I think. You can also send in your body rail to deadlywind, which will lower the price on the karta.
