    DM's don't fit, I know that for sure. The only Angel grips that look like they'd fit are A1 grips. Other grips that have a similar hole pattern are:

    Alien Independence .45's
    Marq/Rapper/Protoge/Vice
    Ego/Etek

    Those are all maybe's. I don't have any handy so I can't try it. Did anyone else who owns anyt of those guns order one of these?

      theres alot of guys doing aftermarket custom grips, someone may need to send one in for a fit but i dont see this being much of an issue, though it is somewhat of an inconvenice to not be able to used some of the cool grips many of us already have baught or aquired

          Andrew,

          What on/off are you using? RT or ULT?

          Thanks for the videos! Speed looks like the DW video from 03! Mine should be here next week. I am so excited.

            RT....talking to garf he said not to use the ULT...since we already have efficiency issues also...but the way mine came from the factory i actually had to do some tuning to get it running...the trigger was moving enough on mine to actuate the piston to move the sear... half turn here a half turn there and i got it all sorted out and dialed back in for a minimal trigger pull....but "GOSH DARN" is this gun a dream come true...its easier for me to shoot fast on than the ion...is just about as light...and a piece of paint ball history...not to mention i built it from the ground up...choose every part...so its just that more satisfying : )

              I am open and welcome to you guys spamming the vids and pics of this on other paintball forums...

              as i am not a member of any of them....

              this could be good business/promo for Garf...if you keep producing...the lesson is...dont post for sale till ready... : )....im being honest when i say...this is the nicest gun ive put in my hands....pure performance and it only wants to shoot faster....and if i dunk this one in the river...its still good to go...F ELECTROS!

                Hate to be the one to point this out to you, but electronic boards have been coated in some sort of sealant for years. Dunk it in the river, it'll still shoot.

                Thanks for the media! Your gun looks awesome.

                  Siress, does it matter if boards are coated if the coils on solenoids are not water tight? what about water in the 9 volt?

                  if you believe that water cant hurt an electronic marker you should have no hesitation with dunking your own gun into water, not telling someone else to do so.

                  with a mag you dont have to care about water period....hell I was once involved in a "pool game" with classic mags and a few reballs.

                        Incidentally, does anyone know how often the actuator has to be regreased? I've noticed white lithium grease starts goes hard after about a week, or am asking a silly question?

                          use common sense dude...I was saying you have to worry about water with electronic guns, e-mags and electronic conversion mags are electronic by nature.....so by that train of thought you shouldnt dunk them in water. do you enjoy trying to contradict everything I say?

                          longi I wouldnt imagine very often at all. As long as you dont set the LPR extremely close to the minimum needed to fire the marker, that seal wont make a huge difference if it happens to leak a small amount. The ram is only pressurized when you have the trigger pulled so the air lost by that seal will be negligible. Now if your LPR setting dont change and the maker stops firing, thats the first thing I would check.....cranking up the LPR pressure would probably fix it, but your losing more air that way. (edit, this is assuming that the tolerances are not horrible on the ram, which IDK because I didnt make the frame. If the tollerances are bad and Garf relies heavily on grease to make the seal you might need to lube every day of play)

                            The lube (white lithium grease) in the actuator will last for the whole season. Basicly maintenance free. I haven't relube my actuator for over 6 months.

                            Just put lube on each side of the sear extender to reduce wear since it make impact contact with the actuator piston and back stop. Do this for each event.
