Stock Class Anybody???

[Nate129]

Just thought I would show you guys a picture of my new toy...
This is my first pump gun, and I actually haven't even held it yet, it's on it's way right now. The guys at Wevo hooked me up good, and their service is top-notch.

Hopefully I don't suck too much while I'm learning the art of pump paintball.

I just bought one of the new sterlings, so I'm just starting pump play as well. Rock on

Don't worry, you will suck . It's a whole different game, but it's fun as hell.

Stock class is fun, but has a steep learning curve. Rollouts, double feeds, forgetting to reload the tube, and of course running low on air with the 12g. But it is definately worth it when you get the hang of it everyone wants you on thier team. I always look out for the pumpers playing against me they are usually the most dangerous.

You also got a top notch marker, Mike from CCI is great and has one of the best if not the best CS with regards to his markers.

it's all personal preference, but you may find you have better luck if you use a stock to start off. It can be surprisingly hard to hit things with a new gun, when your shooting platform is unstable. Then again...if you like it better without the stock, you'll adapt.

oh yeah. buy a good paint match for that barrel
rollouts suck!

I love pump play. It's totally different from semi play.

And like the guys said, you will suck at it
...until you get the hang of it.

I actually have a nice and shiny Nickel plated P68SC waiting for me! (I just kinda need to pay the dude. He said he'd wait 'till I finish a few projects I had planned. They're almost all done!)

Phantoms are really nice. You'll love it!

[RedEyes]

niiiiice, phantoms are really light but are great for the money. dont they get about ~50 shots per 12g. you should get a matching stock too. i like the colors.

if youre looking for a dye ul black 1 piece, i think, the shop i goto has a few.

i need to go play with my black/blue carter i bought a few months ago. havent even played it in a game yet.

My self having recently gotten back into pump play, has two suggestions:

1. Get a stock

2. Get a ghost ring...or similar "sighting" tool


Put the stock on your shoulder and aim the gun every shot. I found that in the years I had been playing semi, I had lost all my aiming skill. I don't think I hit anyone my first day out with my new phantom.

Long live pump!

You're a brave man, jumping into stock class without going threw open class first.
You can always rock a 3.5 oz until you get use the 10 rounds tubes, that way you don't have two things to worry about.

Yay ... we have a new recruit ... post up @ stockclasspaintball.com there's lots of people that can give you good advice ...

i went back to playing pump this summer ... i got a pgp and haven't looked back ... i gradually worked my way to SC type of play by graduating from a 200rnd hopper and pack to just hopper games...to half a hopper games ... to a stickfeed on my mag ... to the PGP ... that helped with my learning curve ...

The one thing I still can't get used to is changing the dang 12ies ...

Been there too.

Aiming... who would have thought!

[PumpPlayer]

That's nice! The two-tone looks really sharp.


Wevo in his devilish brilliance has come up with new ways to tempt the masses.

[Nate129]

I also ordered a center-feed breech and 3.5 oz tank - so I'm not limited to stock class...thank God.

T-stock and detent rings are also on the way - I figured I would start off right.

I'm the one who actually came up with the slate/black combo - Wevo just made it a reality. I hadn't seen another slate/black two-tone, so I figured I would give it a shot. I think it came out really clean looking - Wevo chose what parts were slate and what parts were black.

Thanks for the help and suggestions guys. I will definitely head on over to SCP, I have been lurking there for a while anyway...

Ha, I didn't get anyone out either my first time playing with my Phantom SC. I hate having to remember to change the 12g before a loud hiss gives off my posotion. :rofl: After playing a few games I decided to get a T-stock, spring and parts kit, vert-air kit, and 3.5oz tank. However, I think I will stick to the 12g since I don't have to pay for all day air.

[Piranti]

I actually have a nice large box (former box of paint) that stores my 12grams Its real nice for those days I am poor, can grab a handfull of 12grams and maybe pay for 200 rounds and I am good for the whole day.
