Well I slapped on the magnaoptic infrared trigger frame because there was so many newbies buying angel speeds, stopping me from moving up or bunkering them. Now I get to hold them down with 14bps (it's set at 24bps but I don't have a loader yet that will feed at that rate) They would freak out when I got close and just unload like crazy keeping me in and stalemating the game. I said good bye to my mechanical trigger and bought a lighter, smaller more compact body. I also added qevs on the end of the ram to increase my cycle speed even more. The delrin bolt also increases cycle speed because it has less friction on metal. I also finally bought a barrel with inserts to keep the ball from rolling out of my barrel (paint is different sizes and autocockers don't have a ball detent to hold the ball in the barrel). I beat my best time of 8 guys in 2 minutes with my mechanical. 7 guys in 30 seconds with my electric. Trigger pull could be lighter; unfortunately, I have a low pressure valve that requires heavy mainsprings. With heavier springs the recoil makes it go full auto so I have to raise the trigger filter settings to compensate for it (trigger bounce, reactive triggers and full auto are illegal in tournaments). It's already like clicking your mouse button, and I still am not satisfied lol.

I didn't get a chance to show you the gun that I built in response to you guys thinking that I couldn't custom modify a paintgun. Here she is. My custom autococker. She was created around adrenaline.

The parts ae from different companies. None of them are from the same. The body is JackalRDL so I call it that.

The tippman squad buster, one of the first paint grenades, absolutely sucked. It looked like a grenade, but didn't blow up like one. Most of the time when you throw it, after you pull the pin, it doesn't burst. The other player usually just throws right back at you. In addition, when it does burst, it just seems to fizzle out. At the scenario game I went to; this guy on our team, threw a grenade from the top of the fortress tower at our general as a joke. It missed and just fizzled out on the ground. It looked more like someone threw an egg at the ground. Everyone was looking down at it in disappointment. The new ones are designed like a ballon, because it is just more sensitive to bursting. I haven't had the experience of one of these thrown at me, but I heard the blast radius was 10 feet in every direction. One of the paintball videos at warpig shows this guy using a grenade in speedball. Instead of actually bunkering the kid, he beans a grenade right into the guy's stomach. It was very funny when I saw it for the first time. Those useless squadbusters suck so bad it was only effective when it was on the guy.

This is just depressing me. Just can't wait till saturday. Most of the "equipment" (paintballers call it gear) is already engineered to the best of it's ability. You have to be either an engineer or a genius to modify any upgrades any better. You probably would have to have your own laboratory. Just to let you know paintball was in Popular Mechanics magazine in the technology section. Most of the modifying is the body of the gun to make it look original. Like annodizing a lightning storm onto your gun or milling it down to a weird shape. Mine is milled down to almost nothing. Just enough so it operates reliably and dirt doesn't get inside it. It's a very small version of the autococker. Most people who own an autococker can't tell that mine is an autococker as well. Plus I am sort of a renegade. I have an 8 inch barrel compared to everyone's 14-16 inches. It's against everyone's popular belief that a longer barrel means more accuracy. Usually you can modify parts on your own if you have your own machine shop. Some people drill the valves inlets bigger. I think it's best to get it from a professional though. I bought exhaust valves to modify my ram. It bleeds the air out that causes resistance so that it can cycle faster. It went from 15 bps to 24 bps. (potential balls per second) The exhaust valves make my autococker look weirder than everyone elses because the ram is upside down.
