    Mark,

    Glad to hear your a member of "old school". Thing were neat back then weren't they? The kids today think a new cut and carve is a great inovation. Glad to hear your hanging on to the gun, its part of a dying breed.

      Black..

You should get a black x-valve(silver classic would look wierd)...but get one of those uber small 13 cubic inch tanks (they are circulating places like mccarterbrown).
      I have a guy who can make the stainless whatever color I want, so no worries... I've got a 22ci for my phantom currently, so that should work perfectly...
      I went like this :shooting:
      He went like this :tard: then like this :wow: then like this :cry:
      Now he shoots a Mag too...

          Re: RH feed

          Yep, it was a right hand feed, removed the feed tube and milled the hole up to match the Phantom s/c feed. With the center feed barrel installed it blocks out the lower section of the original hole.

            My advice is to hold on to it as long as you can. If you need the money, I think it's in the 400+ range. It's just so unique, and so stunning. My best to you so far as a miracle in healing goes, but if using it is not in the cards for you, I'm sure a perfect sized glass case with marble base and gold embossed name plaque can be had for it. Really a one of a kind, you've even got TK's wheels going on that one.

            If you must sell it, or need the money, I have a connection at Christie's of London. I'm sure the bidding will start in the thousands of pounds... lol

            Kudos

              Finish

              The finish is just external. There would be no reason for an x-valve in a pump, especially without an autotrigger. Even with an autotrigger, I think the max for a pump is 10bps. That's not faster than the recharge of a classic valve.

              P.S. if you can pump faster than 10 bps, you need to get out more. :rofl:

                To every one else, This gun is Uber nice. Mark did a very nice job. It is worth $350, IMHO.

                Shane-O
                thats definatly a one of a kind... $350 is an understatement. I hope to someday have my pumper mag look just like that...

                  Valve thoughts...

                  When your dealing with stock class you need to think efficiency (12 grams). If I remember right, I did a lot of posting on Doc's site when I built this, and the older style valve set up was the most efficient due to the chamber size (but don't quote me on this unless someone with first hand knowlege chimes in). That's also the reason I went with the micro line. I guess you could chop, but you'd have to try really hard

                    Hey whats your name again? I used to play all the time at "The Paintball Zone" back before the floods. It was located at 141 and 44 in case you never went there. I started playing about 1990 and around 92/93 time frame practiced with Greif allot back when they still wore cammy tops with black sleeves. I remember when allot of the team members starting getting VM-68's

                    Also played in several of the big games back then and was in a speedball game at the Zone when one of the big games was going on and we got rolled by the big names at the time. It was pretty much us with pumps and the rare semi against big name players ... talk about dead where we stood

                    I still talk with Sal all the time about the older days of the sport ... hell I remember watching Tori and his sister growing up around the Pro Shop all the time when it was still back behind the Dennys right off of 44.

                        I wouldn't sell it for anything less than 400. That there is sharp!! Hanging on to it is a good idea. Take care of that back and get well...

                          Probably at home watching NASCAR. I guess I need to get back in the loop, or at least call some old friends. By the way, what is AO MO-I know I'll get flamed for that....but I had to ask.

                                Hey Mark I was reading the thread and thinking of offering any number of the discs out of my spin when I came across the one about you needing a hydrated L4/L5 disc. I realy don't need mine so if you want it it's yours for the gun.
