Also:

Update - 11-19-2009 - I've picked it apart a little bit. In the upper right are the macroline fittings, vertical ASA (not sure if I'll use either of these) and two unidentified parts. I would appreciate any help with those. As far as I can tell the body is in okay condition, useable. The rail is in good condition. The trigger frame/assembly is in good condition and all is useable. I don't really know all that much about 'Mags so I'm kind of screwed until I watch the videos. I tore down the regulator and the valve as far as I could. I have no idea if they're missing parts or if I haven't torn them down all the way or what. Obviously I'm missing a few pieces. The bolt, a barrel, a new ASA, and grips. I don't know if I'm missing more, if you see anything else feel free to tell me. Any and all input and help is appreciated!

Update - 11-19-2009 - Picked up a 14" barrel from "bacci paintball" for $19. To be shipped Monday. This project is moving right along.

Nice, if you need any other small parts let me know.. I still have some older stuff kicking around, including a nice 12" J&J ceramic barrel I would've sold you cheaper

[AutomagSniper]

Yea, everyone told me to look here for better deals. The thing is it took me a while to get validated or whatever and I needed this 'Mag ready for December 5th for a game. Oh well...

For real? *Hits up mapquest and rounds up buddies for road trip*

[trevorjk]

but seriously, let me know when your heading down IF you do

[AutomagSniper]

I'm considering it, it may not be this winter though. Got a few games planned already but my summer/spring is wide open. You guys have any big games or scenarios? Maybe small tourneys?

[AutomagSniper]

It's done!!

Congratz bro. Way to bring back a classic. Now don't go tearing it up for a new body, rail...ect...keep it the way it is.

[AutomagSniper]

I'm currently buying a new one to screw around with.
