Z-grip mag w/ custom grips (pic)

[Smokee_2_7]

finally, pics of my completed z-grip mag, although the picture quality is nothing short of terrible. Ill try again tomorrow.

FYI, the flame job was done by Load SM5. as well as the grip panels. they're really comfortable.

Wow, great looking setup man, very shiny :)

[Smokee_2_7]

thanks, this lil one has been about a year and a half in the making. Still trying to scrape together some extra cash to slap a retro in it. Unfortunately, that might be a little while in the future. I gotta quit buying nitro systems. lol. i would put up a pic of my other mag, but those came out too bad to even post.

Looks good Carl.

Did the flame drome not work? Too far forward? I can't wait to see that in person in a few weeks.

Ultimator,

Yes, I work at extreme paintball - - - Carl.
If you saw my gun out on the field, that must have been a couple weeks ago when i let mike play a few games with it. LOL. . . he was constantly commenting on how weird the z-grip looked, and how much he 'never was a mag guy. . ' then he decided that he wanted to try it out at least once. Well, after the 2nd game he told me he absolutely LOVED it. Its looking like he might have me build one up for him almost just like it.

Shartley,

Thanks- - i agree with you completely on the overall appearance of the marker. The funny thing is, it wasnt planned out that way. It just kinda happened. Sometime around January is when I realized exactly what i wanted this gun to look like. You can thank Loadsm5 for the flames- - - that was his idea completely. When he was experimenting with the whole custom emag-grip thing, we thought itd be cool to see if he could do some for my z-grip. The grips came out great, but then he tells me about this "idea" he has- - - somthing about putting chrome flames inside the clear pannels. Then, he had the idea to add the ones on the mainbody. I absolutely love the way it came out. Originally i wanted to put a matching CP flame drop on it, but. . . .

Jeff,
No, unfortunately not. The drop is just too big. It hits the forgrip, and i realized that it would move my tank WAY to far forward. The grip itself moves it a loooong way up. IF i took the forgrip off and made it fit, the back of the gun would be behind the back of the tank. . . . a little TOO compact for me. Oh well, they just dont make a flame one small enough. . .

BTAutomag,

MY PRECIOUS!!!!!!
MIIINNNNNNEEEEE!!!

(for those of you in the dark, The lord of the rings is great stuff. . . )

Panzerr,
No, the flame patters are actually stickers (ok, 'decals' if ya wanna be proper about it.) Custom made by Load SM5. great looking stuff. . . .


I will eventually put a warp on this gun. need extra cash first. . . lol. Also, a retro valve is on the way for it eventually. Unfortunately, my plans for my mags kinda got put on hold when i wound up buying that "other gun" back in august. lol. . .SO of course my first warp went on that one. When I do warp this one, it will be a clear shell, with hopefully (if i can talk Load into it,) a matching flame pattern on the inside of the shell.
