1. level ten bolt - Worth its weight in gold. You will NEVER chop another ball if you install it correctly. (there is a how to cd that comes with it, or it can be found at airgun.com)
2. evil piple barrel-I dunno Dont tell anyone but I use SP freak. Its cheap, and i can get a good paint to barrel match.
3. warp feed ( can i use with a mini, will it look gay and be unbalanced?) - This is more of a prefrence call. I personally love them, but my wife hates them(she holds her gun funny tho) Everyone here will have a different oppinion on them however you will never get shot in the hopper again. They are not gay, and after a game or 2 with it, it feels normal, and you will ask yourself how you ever could stand the "blimp" on top of your gun
4. halo b hopper (or those little tubes w/o warp)- IMO halos are over rated. first off I dont shoot 30bps. Can I? probally I have an emag with xmod. Will I? nope. I am broke as a joke, and am happy with my 20 bps eggII. (eggs also fit perfect on warp feeds) if I use my wifes gun I just throw on a revy (she has a purple emag w/xmod)
5.x valve (read somewhere it comes with level ten upgrade does it ?) - Yes xvalves come standard with xvalve. you can usually find them used for @ 200ish here. They are basicly the same thing as RTPro, Retro, Emag valves just all alum instead of half alum half ss
6.agd intelliframe - again this is just prefrence. I personally like the Ygrip more than the Intelliframe, but they are the same concept. Its a double trigger frame with a mounting bracket inside the frame to allow you to hook it up to the warp feed/any hopper so that every time you pull the trigger it will send a signal to feed another ball. (no miss feeds)
7. gas tank.. i heard mags dont like co2, so nitro tank? how big? - CO2 is for automag,minimag,micromags ONLY. most people prefer hpa, however if you live somewhere where only co2 is availible get an automag valve. if you get Xvalve, rt, rtpro, emag, retro valves you have to have HPA(nitro). As far as how big it just depends. I own scuba tanks that I fill my tanks with so I dont have to worry about running out I can just go for a refill. If you are going to fill it somewhere and play woodsball get a big tank. ie 72ci or larger

i dont know if i missed anything important so tell me if i did plz

will it be to heavy, or look gay ?- NO here is one of my backups it is comfortable as hell. There are also a few other warp setups in the pics. It is a little heavy because of the steel tank, however I dont have girly arms, and can carry the extra 3-4 pounds

sorry for spelling anything wrong if i did - ditto for me

thanks for the help in advance guys.

My first gun

i been looking at other threads and set ups, and this is what i came up with. can you plz tell me if its any good, and what i should make better. im want get a minimag- have one too and love it. with:

1. level ten bolt- If you are willing to install it, I personally prefer a lvl7.
2. evil piple barrel- Good luck finging a twist lock one. I would just get a ule body kit to start out. They have autococker threads. Or if you cant get ULE buy an aftermarket twist lock barell like a J and J.
3. warp feed ( can i use with a mini, will it look gay and be unbalanced?)- Nothing in paintball looks gay unless you paint your gun rainbow. Warp feeds are great, I own one, never get hopper shots, and it is easy to tune. Took me 5 minutes.
4. halo b hopper (or those little tubes w/o warp)- Screw halos they are so overated and thier shells break easy. You will need to sand the shell to fit in the warp. I use a revy, they work great. Any viewloader hopper fits in it.
5.x valve (read somewhere it comes with level ten upgrade does it ?) Unless you have an emag xvalves are useless, or if you want the ULT (I have never used). If you are going to shoot fast but don't want a ULT buy one of the many rt's (rtpro, ReTro, RT micromag...) I have the micromag one, It requires one less oring than the others.
6.agd intelliframe-all about preference, I like a single mech trigger on all my guns
7. gas tank.. i heard mags dont like co2, so nitro tank? how big? BIG AS YOU CAN AFFORD, I have a 3000/48 and I get about 450 shots out of it. this is what you do
For mags:
3000= x10
4500=x15

take the pressure and multiply it by the cubic inches. for example 68ci/4500psi= 65x15= 975 shots. Mags use around 800psi poerating pressure, evil minions use 120psi, AKA's use 75psi. Mags are air suckers get a big tank.
GOOD LUCK WELCOME TO AO

One thing everyone has missed so far is the MiniMag Body and Cocker threads.....


You want a Minimag Body, it will only accept Twist Lock Barrels. If you went with a ULE or MICROmag body then you could use cocker threaded barrels. Or to confuse things even more you could attempt to find one of Doc's twist lock to cocker adapters....


Hope this helps

Does anyone sell micromag vert feed mainbodies?
if so where can you get them?

[peewee]

3. warp feed ( can i use with a mini, will it look gay and be unbalanced?)
4. halo b hopper (or those little tubes w/o warp)
If it were me I would go with a Q-loader over a warp feed/halo on your gun. Simple reason I hate having batteries go dead on me(and yes I always forget extras). I have an emag and I use the power from the gun itself. Here is a link from RobAGD

7. gas tank.. i heard mags dont like co2, so nitro tank? how big?
I think by gas you mean HPA. I am not the expert but I think it depends on the valve you have. As I understand it the classic valve will actually work very well (if not better) with CO2. As far as size of a tank, it really matters what you like. Just make sure you get the high pressure reg not the low pressure.
