    The Carbon Project. The AO comunity flexes!

    The Carbon Project.

    So for S&G's and for plain old AO community vibe i though up of this idea. Im pretty sure its been done before, but if not i guess that just makes me a bit dorkier. Anyhow...

    I will build a cocker from scratch by using donated, fuctional spare/extra parts from AO members. This is a relatively complete from-the-ground-up build. When this cocker is fully built, i will play a day of paintball with it, then mail it to the donors, from which order the parts came in. This next donor will in turn play a day of Pball with the cocker. Pictures will be taken and posted here on AO. Then the gun is shipped to the next donor on the list. This will continue untill there are no donors left on the list. From that point on, it will then becomes "AO property". A signup-to-use list will be made and the "AO Crew Cocker" be passed around AO member to AO member like a doobie.

    On my honor and the honor of Norcal AO Crew who will vouch for me, this gun will not be sold by me or anyone involved in the project.

    I want this to happen. It will be done. PM me if your interested, are ready to donate or want more info on this project.

    Parts List. They do not have to be top of the line, just random spare parts that function. The parts list will be culled until the gun is complete, progress will be documented with pics, dates and everything. Primarily, there will be 14-15 possible members in on this. As of current the parts needed are as folows

    My AIM: HopscotchA3

    All parts must be 2002 compatible.

    RED = donor found
    BLUE = Part collected

    external parts
    -Body. preferably with valves and internals

      don't forget the tools...there has to be a tool box that goes with the gun.
      sounds cool, carbon.

        This is a great idea. But, if you pass it around AO, someone is likely to keep it and sell it. You could have like a "Positive Feedback Only" requirement which enables members with positive feedback on AO or Ebay, or some other forum to be elegable for the Carbon Project. This would greatly reduce the number of people to pass it to, but the number would grow everyday. It would also protect the marker, and all the people who helped build it.

        Just a thought....

          HEY! I do not just get passed around!

          The gun is 1/8" of a game that is a FOOT long!

                      the pneu's will fit any year front block. It's only the block that must be compatible.

                        Consider this a big ol' vouch. Carbon will do as he says. Cool idea, too bad I don't have any cocker parts.

                            I have an STO ram, chrome is chipped a bit, but its functional. I also might have a slider frame with internals.
