Hey guys, been a while...

Meaningful discussion outside of the potato gun realm. Projects, theories, current events. Non-productive discussion will be locked.

But I think I'm gonna start being a little more active here again. Guess I'll have to read around and see what kinds of new things you guys have come up with in my absence.

Well, greetings concluded, I also wanted you guys to take a look at my new paintball gear and tell me what you think.

Tippmann A-5 w/ response trigger, Dogleg air-thru stock, Stiffi C-Series carbon fiber/Kevlar barrel, coiled remote, and Palmer inline stabilizer. What do you guys think?

Yea, and I'm not done with it yet. I've still got to get myself a Hammerhead barrel and a scope.

But yeah, if all goes well I'll start posting in here again. Don't expect much out of me cannon-wise, but I'll be here tossing around theories.

Nice A-5, I got a 98c with a custom stock and a WGP 2 piece barrel, and I’ll be getting a Sheridan soon…

You’re welcome over at my, slightly more paintball related, forum, drop in and say high. (link's in my sig.)
Actually, please join…
Me and Brogdenlaxmiddie are getting a little lonely just the two of us… :D

Like I said, a Hammerhead barrel, the best barrels on the market from what I hear, and some sort of scope or another, probably a 2X red-dot.

It's all good. I've also got a tactical vest. Radio pouch on the top left, map/ID pouch top right, bottom right is just a large pouch, good for smoke nades, bottom left is two grenade pouches. 6 pod holders on teh back as well as a pouch for large air tanks. Camelbak system and integrated sling. A most excellent vest.

Hey long time paaiyan, it's been a while since I seen you're pancaked guinea pig. Nice paintball gear by the way, and glad to see you back.



Well I'm not sure how long you been gone, but the most recent stuff includes (not in order)

-Cannoncreator had a horrible accident and took a spud to the eye, which resulted in surgery and permanent eye damage. He's alive and is more or less fine, but you should check out his sticky.

-Davidvaini's incredible work with BBMGs

-DYI's universal hybrid fuel meter and 20x hybrid (built with standard malleable fittings). Very impressive.

-Several pen gun's (like JSR's) been popping up, pretty impressive work.

-FEAR now works with 10x mixes (video in the hybrid discussion), and I built a universal fueling meter based on DYI's.

-Spudfarm got his finished hybrid chamber from Lardo and it is a work of art, though the pictures on the sight have been taken down. The hybrid works but the union has proved trouble.

-Several member's have joined the hybrid club and they're work is quite impressive.

That's all that jumps to my mind at the moment, but there's a lot thats happened that I haven't mentioned, I'm sure someone will point out something obvious I missed.
