Sentinel Upgrades

[Draknes]

Im really interested in buying a Sentinel TS and I was wondering, since it looks like the Diadem uses the same body, will it be possible to make a sentinel electropneumatic? Is there any possibility of you making something like an electropneumatic conversion kit?
Thanks

[Crash STP]

Sorry but I doubt it. Although it looks the same the internal machining is different. the main being the lower tube doesn't have the sear slot and is sealed for approx. last 1.5" as it part of the gas supply to the solenoid. The grip frame also is different in a few ways.
You would or we would have to supply a new body , grip frame , battery box , Vert. reg. , LP reg. , bolt , diadem mid-rise feed neck , and asst'd fasteners. By time we retro-fitted a TS to a diadem piece by piece it'd be more than buying new.
we are working on a holiday special Sentinel TS w/ some great aftermarket parts. Stay tuned in this forum for an announcement next week.;)

:devil:

the sentinel ts really needs nothing except maybe a trigger job<my opinion>

a freak kit or a J&J edge wouldn't hurt it but not entirely necessary

i have never been happy with a stock out of the box marker until i got my TS..well my phantom was close =) but not perfect

but i would like to take a look at the hot rod version crash is talkin about

Ok, Thanks a lot
One more queestion: About how long is the stock trigger pull?

[Benson]

My personal gun is 3/16 or about 4mm after some trigger work. As far as stock goes I think it's around 6mm, but Crash would know for sure.

[Draknes]

Thats not bad at all. A mechanical blow-back pull can only get so short.

[Crash STP]

Benson's correct the stock one come out about 6-7mm on pull length. They are a bit stiffer then we would like but to get the reliability that we want that's the result . You can get it lighter but sometimes you'll have issues w/ recocking w/ small bore paint or a dirty marker. Also once your used to it and get your finger adapted to laying along the length of the blade you can really rip on it.

hey crash is AM producin a standard 2 finger trigger setup for the sentinels..i really can't deal with the blade

[Crash STP]

whinny little red headed st........ Er - was that out loud?:evilgrin:
ANYWAYS, Not yet AFAIK , you're the first I've had ask for a standard 2x trigger. If you ask real nicely I could make one for you . :P
I think I have an old benchie 2x cocker shoe I could cut and TIG onto a AM trigger

hehe i really love the redheaded stepchild thing lol

no but seriously..being the fact i am an enormous red headed mutant i need the 2 finger..the blade doesn't kick out enough at the tip for me..if you could hack one together with your elfen cookie magic that would be sweet
