Nova or Mayhem

[askman]

One option that he may consider is rainmaker. I know it is BE, but it actually is a decent electro marker. There are plenty of upgrade/parts for it, and you can get it for about 100 bucks on ebay NIB. Cocker barrel thread too. I just picked up a 99 SF custom rainmaker for 150 and it is probably better made than either mayhem or nova. Mine is custom anodized. I will post when I get it working. (need a vertical reg for it. got it on order)

Another choice may be pirahna electro marker.

Matrix's are fully pneumatic as well as those.

I have a Mayhem, but I rarely use it because I play more woods/scenario ball than speedball (which is why I bought the Mayhem).

The Mayhem is a very, very good and solid gun with big-time potential.

I have been pondering adding a Morlock board, which would make it a 16+ bps marker.

It only runs on 100 PSI, and has only three moving parts including the trigger.

Hope this helps!

Up, I'm very interested in hearing more. hwayhzrd, mind posting a little more info? They look cool. Also, in addition to your morlock idea.. wouldnt it also be possible to modify and attach a double trigger? I'm interested in getting one, depending on the pros and cons..

thanks

i honestly gotta say u pciked about the two worst paintball guns and wile they are cheap there that way for a reason save up some money and buy a quality product and if nothing else atleas i got a good laugh out of those warped mayhem pics...

Mayhems aren't as bad as some people say.. I have one and it has honestly never chopped a ball. It has a little weight to it, and it definitely has a different look than other markers, but it's built solid. I don't use it that much anymore, but I'm a Phantom kinda guy

[11_Mile_TMaster]

Dare I ask, Who makes the Mayhem?

[Exydon]

Mayhems wereMade by PGI, who also made the Firestorm conversion kit and are currently making the Osiris Autocockers.

Max is a great guy (runs emulsion), but hes slow to reply to emails. If you can, I reccomend phoning him. By the way, that place is located in Nova Scotia, so the prices are Canadian.

wow,....OLD thread, he has scince gotten a differnt marker all togther thanks anyway i guess

[nt2004]

holy crap! I dont even remember posting in this thread!

[hwayhzrd]

While I am crushed by wantamag's reaction (yawn), I still maintain that the Mayhem is a marker of great potential.

The Warp is for profile reduction, and I had it prior to getting the Mayhem for speedball.

Plus, I LIKE doing something different from the rest of the sheep that just buy exactly what the rest of their herd (buddies) have.

My Mayhem sends guys smirking all the way to the dead box, and with some work it will only get better. People laugh at my Tippmann markers too, with the same results.

I have a message in at Doc's Machine about having a new trigger and trigger guard made.

A Mayhem with the speed of an Osiris 'Cocker? You bet your butt it can and will be done.

It's nice to see that marker snobbery is alive and well here on the Automag owner's forum. I thought that Smart Parts held the patent on that one too ...

[OysterBoy]

Why make a new trigger? PGI's site has Double Trigger Frames for sale, or did I miss something.. (IE out of business... ?)

[hwayhzrd]

If memory serves, they (PGI) wanted something outrageous like $150.

If I am paying a fair amount, why not get something made exactly like I want it?

I want a blade trigger, and they can make it to my liking.
