AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
to make it lighter you could get an agd flatline tank those things weigh next to nothing! i have one on my impulse and i notice about a fourth of a pound's difference between it and my old maxflow tank.

The foregrip is possibly the most expensive grip ever. Here is the rundown:
Real Carbon fiber cigar tube from Site Mfg, $50
12 foot 15/16" solid aluminum rod, of which I used a piece 3/4 inch long, $27
Aircraft Industry grade epoxy, 2 quarts, $160
Tap and drill I mysteriously lost and had to replace, $18
2 stainless steel hex screws, $1
Decent drill press, which I needed to buy anyway, $250
You add it up...if I do I will vomit.
The result of this labor of love is a foregrip that weighs less than 10 paintballs. Really.
I need to get this gun on a scale sometime.

if I had the money and tools I would do it becuase carbon fiber is cool and light and just awsome but that would be my reason for making a really expensive carbon firber foregrip.

I like light, too. But are a few ounces worth several hundred dollars? Not in my book. Plus, Carbon fiber is actually kinda ugly...
Most of that stuff can be used to do something other than what he did with it, so I don't really think that it was a waste of money. Plus, just being able to say that is INSANE.
