    Need help deciding on custom project

    Ok, I am going to take the winter to build myself another marker, I want it to be something special. I am going to attempt to do it all myself with minimal help from the people around here, and of course help from the board

    I already have a Matrix and a Devilmag, while I might consider building a custom matrix its really not what I have in mind. Anything I build is going to get some funky anno scheme. I really want to keep this under $1000 for a winter project

    What I'm thinking

    A) A pump-electro. I'm thinking starting with a e-bladed cocker of some type, sneaking a pump in there that trips a 'noid, making it stock class, and leaving it interchangeable with the flick of a hidden switch. So I can go out pumping with a HALO and switch to semi electro to confuse people. Edit: when I say stock class I mean feed tube and 12 grams, but with the option to go to HALO and CA easily.

    B) A really "agg" pump. I'm thinking start with a Tracer or Illussion (far too many phantoms out there) and doing something odd - like annoing it hot pink or tequilla sunrise fade.

    C) A Blazer. Of course it would be a custom anno of some type, and this would give me a great mechanical back up marker, probably the most logical choice and thats likely why I will not do it.

    D) A Viking - something functional. I'm thinking predatorize it, anno it all sorts of odd colors or patterns (still thinking on those) and possible light milling. Not a lot of people around here have Vikings and that might be interesting to see how low pressure I can get.

        That pump electro sounds cool, and probably a little complex to be able to switch it on the field. If you can do it more power to you.

              I like the "Your an idiot" option.

              But in all seriousness... all your options posted suck. What ya should do is head over to Mcarterbrown.com Rare/Old gun forum. Take a look at some of the custom oldschool guns in there and then decide on a project.

              How about a KLever - Lever action Paintball Wood Stock Rifle (like a winchester).

              Or how about a Palmers Hurricane or Painter ??

                  I voted for Palmer's... cause you had it 100% correct... "everyone need something Palmer"

                  I like the Illusion idea as well, my Illusion was supposed to a diferent anno, but it would have taken another 3 weeks and I didn't want to wait lol.

                    I voted e-pump, but I do agree that an e-blazer would be better. Cmon, do it!

                      I would add a pneumati assisted pump to your list. Take a tracer, anno it with funky colors and add pneumatics to it. f you want to go even further you may try to build an auto-cocking marker from a pump (pgp, phantom, traccer, maverik, hornet, BE blade :P, an old BE pump, a KP...). That would be awesome.

                        If you successfuly get an e-pump to work, that can change withing at least 30 seconds to fully e no pumping, video it to proove it, and a tutorial depending on how hard it is I'll donate a bit of money to you. That would be my ultimate marker.

                          the pump electro sounds sweet. i think it will be hard to do but if you can do it, that gun would be nice

                            I voted Palmers for obvious resons...
                            Reason #1 being the more guns Palmers sells, the better chance I have of getting another box with the cool curley metal things from them..
                            Reason #2 If NiteHawk ever decides that I can not longer use his Blazer I will have you to bug...
                            Reason #3 Team POG is always looking for players with a great attitude and who don't mind hugs or sillly x-waitresses..
                            Reason #4 I just simply needed a fourth reason, but do you really need a reason to own a Palmers? Is there honeslty any reason not to own one?? ~ wait ummm yea... I don't actually own one huh?? this is me sneaking off the back of the stage...

                              Palmers is the most logical option and the best choice. If I did not have a team next year and POG invited me to play I am certain I would find a Palmers item before IAO . Its such a logical choice... it defies me why I don't hunt down a Blazer to toy with. The e-pump is not as hard as some of you are thinking - it might not end up being dead stock class legal when I was done, but it could require a pump if the switch was flipped....
