[Load SM5]

Ah, they're good pics. See any extreems on the field?

Nice!

Is that a ULE frame on the last one?

It's the manik-e-mag prototype frame (a ULE with even more milling). John put the prototype onto his gun since mine isn't finished yet :)

Finally! A milled battery pack!

:) I still don't get the grip panel idea. In comparison, it would be like a Dodge Viper with hub caps, instead of a nice set of wheels. Or, like a young lady wearing a Prom Dress with her brothers muddy Walmart sneakers. Or..... just kidding you get the point. All that time and effort was spent on design/execution and the "best of show" gets a $2 set hard plastic panels. (?) It looks OK on the original E-Mag, but this is just a little embarrassing.

I didn't like the Blade trigger at first either , but, after looking at it a second time, I believe it was designed that way so your middle finger will fit behind the trigger. Not a bad idea.

For these guns to look complete, a little effort needs to be put into some milling of the battery pack, something simple would be better than nothing.

[Miscue]

These guns are purty... but those grip panels scream out: "Replace me! I suck!" It's like you got this nice sports car and you put on Mickey Mouse Hubcaps. :) Yeah... but nobody makes other grips yet... I know...

The blade trigger I think is a bit pretentious... but not bad. I think there's some potential there.

Personally.... I prefer the triggers left polished/chrome...

Darn Sexy!

Edit: Dang it! Somebody beat me to the hubcap analogy :)

This is the first I've heard of this. Is this universal? What precisely is the problem? I have one of Timmy's triggers (but not yet an Extreme on which to place it) and am interested.

What is this the Joker CnC??? Or is the green just a reflection?

Where were all those pictures taken at? Someplace in Europe?
EDIT: slaps himself for not reading, nice to know though that paintball is still being played 18000 years in the future.

While we are speaking of interesting looking blade triggers.

The eclispe blade...


Sorry had to post this. This gun is gay.


I didn't know that squids were entities.

Hey Manike

When is the legendary Manik-e-mag with the custom milled wellington bomber body going to make an appearance? I have been waiting to see that thing in the metal for such a long time

[BenD]

can someone photo shop one of the top ones white for me//????

Thanks,

[Shirow]

I wish the extremes had nice wrap-a-round grips on them, a la dye stickies

Simply put where the battery sticks out of the trigger it hits the frame thus not hitting the sear rod as much as it should do, you can compensate by lenghening the sear rod.

It's a reflection. The bottom of that gun is actually chrome and it was reflecting the light of the tent. The top is purple to silver fade. Looks better in real life than it does in the pic.

Guys I am working in my spare time on a solution to the grips issue. Trouble is my spare time, as ever, is limited. That's why the manik-e-mag is not yet finished either.

I like the purple to silver fade. As for the blade triggers those are just ugly. The TL63 one look alot better

Manike...

The milled Xtreme frame that is in your sig... It looks very interesting. Could you post some pictures of it? :)
