I considered picking up a Recon (Why did I think about it?) the second to last time I was in WalMart. Went back the next day to pick it up... all 10 or so of them they had were gone. What the hell?

I hope they get more in soon.

awesome, thanks, and by the way, what does IIRC mean?

If I recall correctly

It doesn't look like it should have that huge of an impact on the gun to me, so long as it's closed tightly.

6'3", and I wish I was taller.

Here's my first attempt at modding and painting a Maverick. Simple air restriction removal, stretched the spring a bit and gave it a terrible paintjob. I'm not happy with it, and I'll be repainting it whenever I get around to caring enough. For now, it sits unloved in the corner.

Though in its defense and mine, it looks a lot better in person, without the flash glaring off it.



My second Mav is just blacked out using Krylon Fusion black camo paint. I have no idea where it went, since my fiancee was cleaning earlier...

It has the air restrictor removal done, but some of the glue I used to seal it leaked into the cylinders as it was drying, so it's not shooting very well at all, when it actually shoots. I'll tear it back down when I get around to it as well...

(I'm good at setting Mavericks aside. What can I say? I also have one still in the box, and my fiancee has one that she wants me to paint, but she hasn't decided on a paint scheme yet.)


Here is my current work-in-progress Longshot. I integrated the second gun and did an air restrictor removal on the main gun, as well as giving the spring a slight stretching. It needs more work on the exterior still, obviously. I just have it together for the picture right now. I'm going to clean up where I overapplied body filler where the guns come together and finish painting the spots I missed, finish the rest of the paint scheme, then see about doing an actual internal upgrade, and maybe add a barrel extension or something for looks. I haven't decided yet.



Anyhow, that was quite the ramble. Howdy, at any rate.
