Where did all the pretty guns go?

Oh, and in response to your location response:

sickness pacem parabellum

Are you trying to say "sickness cultivates war"?!?!?!? That's the most generous translation I can think of since pacem parabellum historically means "prepare for war" but it depends on it's context...


As for pretty... wern't most of those "pretty" guns that were mentioned aftermarket cockers anyways... isn't that essentially what we're all doing here?!?!?!? whether it be a mag or a vik or whatever... all I'm sayin' is that back in the day you still had to go somewhat custom one way or the other.

Why spend the money to make a work of art when you are designing a disposable product?

thats a grandslam there

I dont mind putting a custom anno or mill job on an aka or agd, they will be around as long as i add a few drops of oil in the asa, as for the new generation of guns...not so much

It would be like putting 24 inch dubs and a 2000 dollar paint job on a pinto.

That would actually be way better than a custom EGO.

That's really the one thing that sticks in my craw about the 'new' guns - you really do not have many options for customization. Sure, you can slap a $35 pair of grips with the silhouette of a naked chick on them, but so can every one else.

with the exception of custom milling which now most guns sold do not carry an excess metal to mill off what cant you do to a newer gun that you could do to anyother gun...

and on the other side of the newer gear being disspossible, with the exception of the shocker name one newer gun that has major quality issues!?

This thread is just starting to sound like a group of mustang guys in a car club,,, utterly ignorant!

being new to this forum but not new to the world of customizing i understand where all of you are coming from.

I bought a 10/22 about 2 years ago i spent $189 on the gun and another $500 on stock, barrel, scope and another $100 or so on polishing the trigger/reducing trigger pull and having nylon washers cut to adjust the play out of the trigger.

as for paint ball guns go i bought an auto cocker trilogy pro for $90 it has a flame trigger, dye sticky's, tri-flo derlin bolt, sp progressive barrel/ 2 piece kaner barrel kit i personaly would hav enot spent that much on a trilogy but for less than $100 i couldnt pass it up and when i get a pro stock ill swap all the upgrade parts off and get stock ones.
