Where did you get this gun ??

I know where these came from beacuse I still have mine unfired #mm00800. Mine is in cobalt blue. The green mm00700 went to John Black and has been offered on ebay a little while back. My guess is the gun was made for Dale Hilton from BOA... Ring any bells ???

Bla Bla Bla.... yea I know I should have read the link...

I am curious to know why you decided to change out the original parts?

Don't get me wrong, its a beauty as it is, but it seems you lost some of what made it special by removing the annoed parts. The post above kinda goes toward what I mean. Certain people got the certain color markers in a limited run of almost non existant markers today.....

Cool Post!

Kayle,

Your right...you get your kudos for very obscure Mag Trivia... This is or should I say was Dale's Centennial Mini ... And the info is all in the link to my original post... but the short version...

I was a regualar at the fields Dale ran... known as Blackhawk... and one of close friends was the guy who made most of the BOA barrels for Dale when he wasn't doing um personally...

Dale played this mag hard... and when he was getting out of the paintball scean he sold it to another close friend of mine who still plays with me regualry... he played it hard too for several more years... before it came into my possession from him ...

Yeah I know of your #800 and of the #700 that sold on E-bay a while back... but thoose are the only two others I know of... and the fate of #700 is unknown to me... and I don't know if there was ever more than the 3 of them ?

punkcat: Know I still have all the original parts in the same condition that they came to me in.... right down the rare power tip spring... & I wouldn't part with them... I know it came with the ice blue anno and I am not sure if the powdercoated body and matching brass BOA barrel were original to when it was first given to Dale or was one of his after the fact changes...

Bottom line... I wanted a Old school as Tom first pictured um style mag that looked as good as it did right out of the box... and have the if nothing else the personal satisfaction that it is the Centi#900 and its personal worth & meaning to me... even if it isn't in the same set of clothes I orginally met her in... because like most people who still shoot mags theese days it is for a personal reason...

And... I didn't want to further degrade the orginal parts already average at best condition after 15 years of hard play and I didn't want to ruin any of the orginal mastic left in thoose parts by re-annoing and re-powdercoating the body... and could in seconds take the level 10 out and pop her right back into the old body and original barrels...

Any more questions feel free to ask... and again thanks to any kind comments...
