Piranha

[Watcher]

I had a 98 Custom for a while and was looking for a cheap speedball marker. I've always wanted an AGD, but they are hard to find and a bit pricy so I picked up a PMI Piranha STS E-Force for around $60.

I liked the way the grip felt and the marker handled, otherwise I would've passed for something a little more advanced or better. Its a great basic marker and performs fairly well (needs a new barrel, of course) and I got a 12V Revy for it that works great, but I think I want to warp it.

Any advice or ideas about the best and lowest profile way to add a warp? The feedneck on it is rather big and tall so I don't want to get the adapter, but there really aren't angle feeds to get for it either.

The feedneck unthreads and leaves a 3/4" hole with "Matrix" threads I believe, and I'm wondering if that elbow/feed adapter the warp feed comes with wouldn't be able to fit that hole somehow.

If there was a way to port the recievers to completely clear the sightline I'd do it, but I don't want to ruin the body on a project. I'd prefer a side feed because for some reason there is a sight rail behind the vertical feed and I want to use it, lol.

Thanx for the help.

Well, one idea would be a 3/4" ID (straight wall --> 3/4" pipe) copper 90* elbow coupler that, if you had access to - or knew of a place to - have that copper elbow (straight wall side) threaded to that feedneck port...and the "coupler" end fits the warp tube.

Another would be a 90* elbow that fits inside the feedneck but over the warp tube.

Ya, I was thinking I had to go that route as well. I don't know if I could get a good elbow threaded, to fit the wall would have to be really thin.

I figured out a way to mod a 10rnd tube with a powerfeed that may work in attaching the warp to the side, but the only means of attaching the tube to the marker would be rubber bands or zip-ties and since it is a 10rnd tube it may be prone to breakage.

I'm still workin' on it though.
