    AT is essentially useless on an SC, the only thing it can give you is a double tap, IF you practice it, you can do it. I am still working on mine.

    I have a Ronin Harnes... it leaves a little to be desired... i tore off the ugly Ronin patch, and now, after a year or two of use, it is finally wearing in enough to be comfy to use. the elastic rings are really tight at first, and need to be stretched to get the tubes out quickly. I recommend a pouch of some type to drop your empties into.

    Phantoms have their own unique threading, and the detent rings solve most paint problems (stock barrel is a little big...).

    About a barrel kit, J&J makes the Edge kit for it, but no others are available yet, and the freak won't fit because of barrel diameter issues.

      start off playing woods ball, then if you have the guzungas play some sup air with the usual crowd. It will really work on your snap shooting and moving.

        Good luck though, I'm also looking at picking up a phantom myself, for gits and shiggles.
        Yes, but how many people can say they played pump against Total grief on thier first day. I figure it is all down hill from there.

            hey, we didn't get maxed, that's all that matters! and besides, its so fun to point out that I bunkered Sage Lehr at the 50 after he beat me to the flag...

            I love playing pump speedball now, especially at Atomix... but i do use a hopper, not stock class...

              Pump rules...

              I love using my Sterling. I am more accurate and enjoy the game more. If you are not playing SC then the auto trigger is your best way to bunker someone when you need to. You don't need to shoot like that all the time. Just when it might be crucial. I love playing woods ball with all newbies and my pump. I let them shoot like crazy and haev fun while I am sneaking around and taking poeple out. You can do more with less balls as you get better. I too would like to get a Phantom, but I think my Sterling might get jealous! :)
