Love my Remains

emopunker2004 · 03-07-2010, 03:05 PM

I'm the guy who bought the remains for 90 shipped that "leaked". Well i got it and it did have a very slight leak out the feedneck. I decided to play with it anyways. So i played yesterday. Shot a whole case through it without any chops or issues at all. I didnt hear the leak while playing and never noticed my tank losing pressure when the gun sat. The alien shot amazing. I have an infinity legend also that i brought just in case but it stayed in the bag the whole day. I love this gun, now i need to fiddle with this trigger to make the pull shorter. Alien, my new favorite.

hell yea man. remains are dirty. although i like the trigger on indys more (just prefference).

try to pick up an 09 indy or even a 2010 and you will get blown away

yeh but for 90 bucks...can't beat that. can't even get a used ion that cheap lol. I'm gonna stick with the remains and legend and use the extra money saved on paint

fair enough man. it shoots great, what more do you need? I always love having a backup marker, and its even better when my backup becomes my main (happened to me with a remains i had for a while)

emopunker2004 · 03-07-2010, 03:39 PM

yeh. i just got my legend too, so next time i'm gonna try it out. i'll bring the remains too just in case

also what kind of efficiency should i be getting. I played with a pack with 4 pods and an egg 3 hopper. I used a 68/4500 tank filled to 3k. Shot a hopper and 4 pods and had 1k left in the tank. Decent efficiency?

Ya that's pretty good efficiency actually. You can probably get another two pods on the last 1000psi.

my ceptor was leaking once - had to turn the air on only during the 10-sec warning b4 game... yeah, performance still the same...

Soemtimes a leak is dirty air for a compressor that gets between the cap and the cup seal body and then blows off.
As far as the $90 - I see them selling for mid 2's to low 3's and to me that is way too low.

sweet. i shot it today in the yard. leaked til i pulled the trigger once, then it stopped. i'll be getting some orings soon and change them all just to be safe

MstrKey · 03-08-2010, 02:22 PM

You need to isolate the leak. It may not be an oring

Jack Rice · 03-08-2010, 09:14 PM

If it leaks once - then maybe he cup seal just isn't sitting all that well.
I think you should just enjoy the gun - why take it apart and risk more problems when you just have to pull the trigger once.
That is an excellent gun and will shoot for many, many cases of paint without spending a dime or fooling with it at all - or you can take it apart and maybe cut the eye wires or put it back togeather wrong and screw something up - years of "I didn't do anything" and seeing exactly what was done make me want to have players shoot the guns and not take them apart - but it's your gun so...
