Re: Just got off the phone with Craig Palmer...

Sorry to post this here as i know there are many threads on this topic, but it has been a bit difficult to decipher from all the posts and I thought I'd pick your brains while it was fresh on your minds.

That said, I run CO2 by remote, have an egrip w/WAS, and stock cyclone and internals...would I gain anything with upgrading to these parts? (specifically the QEV, FCV, 1/8" tubing) To complicate things, I plan to add the vortex and lightening rod. Still any benefits?

Thnx,

MG

Re: Just got off the phone with Craig Palmer...

I am not sure with the egrip, my first inclination is yes but here is how you can find out, set your grip the highest bbs you would ever want, If your vortex and lightning rod are installed (I would do that before this test) shoot paint through it. can the cyclone keep up? are you chopping paint? If not your fine leave it alone, if so, try this mod, it will feed more air to the cyclone helping it keep up. let us know I am curious.

Re: Just got off the phone with Craig Palmer...

you might want to upgrade your stock bolt to an aluminum one. this would prevent you from losing playing time due to a frozen plastic bolt because of high rates of fire.
