Looks good. Well if you just bought one of the lock collars would it look right on there?

No, you need the upper piece of the reg body as well.
2 Urethane tank O rings in the asa seemed to do the trick.

I usually just get those fatass industrial Orings and put them on top of the reg under the threadings, then torque the **** out of it.

I'm a bit behind the conversation...
I had a Valhalla Viking for a little while. I bought it thinking I'd really like it. Aesthetically, the milling looks decent, and the guns come with a nice OLED board. Let's forget for a minute about the fact that the first one I received had ruined tolerances from stripping/re-anno, and just judge the second one... I didn't love it. The frame didn't feel right in my hands (subjective), the buttons were too easy to push by accident while playing (fixable, but shouldn't have to), I had to remove one side of the quad detents to get it to feed reliably (again, something I shouldn't have to fix - and I'm not sure whether that was a milling or spring mishap), and it just didn't shoot as sweet or feel as 'magical' as some of the older milled ones I've had. Yes, it shot 271, 271, 271 for me at the chrono, but it just lacked that Viking 'feel.' I'm insane, I know, but I'd take any of the other PL versions over that marker any day of the week.

i used to own a featherlite swirl viking and an excal at the same time. i still have the excal. the viking looked cool, but i know what you mean about it not having that "magical" feeling. it just seemed to "kick" more than it should and just really didn't shoot as well as i had hoped or wanted it to. my excal on the other hand is magical and i love it. there were a couple times where i took the viking to play with, used it for 2 games and switched guns because it was driving me crazy. i dunno. i've thought about getting another one at some point. right now i'm more interested in another mech cocker.

Though I really love both Vikes and Excals, a Rainmaker is the only electro I own at the moment. Over the years, I've had 6 or 7 Vikings and, I think, 2 Excals. Wouldn't mind a nicely-milled, mint specimen of either, but as it stands, I'm in 'cut back' mode rather than 'acquire loot' mode.

Brooks?
I almost bought his evo but got my Jackal RDL instead.
I really like his AKA Works, CCM works, and shocktech too.

Since '96. Probably why I love markers from that era so much.

I think you lost to miller by 12 years.
You already sold the SB? What'd you get.
I can see selling some but you had a nexus sig, a dc1 and an ft1 and didn't keep one. You crazy

woops. was going to put the SB under "Selling"
Either a Gold SC'd Darq Marq or a Gothic A1 Fly that's been Cobra'd out.
I NEED A ROTOBREECH ON MAH GODDAMN ANGEL!
That and if this colorway is stock for the gothic, it's ridiculously ****ing rare. Have to see if the numbers show.
The Gothix fly dude will be adding $200ish anyways.
And the nexus/DC thing. They're nothing but trouble. Besides, that whole FRM horse **** is SO uncomfortable and completely throws the balance off for the gun. Yeah it's super fast (oh my god it's ****ing fast), but it has no soul, sucks to use, and is a pain in the *** to use, so I sold that **** fast. It was a serial *****. I can't get over that and wished that I held onto that Yakuza since I got it for $100 anyways and in BNIB condition.
Would have gone into my karnivor that I'm going to be picking up... That, a Samurai Trigger, and my AKA parts. I'd looove to hear the thing ploop when I shoot it.
Which means I technically got paid $80 to own a Gothic A1 Fly.

Trouble? two drops in the asa? Not much timing to an Ecocker.
I guess having one hand I have the advantage when it comes to hoses cause of how I grip the gun.
but no soul, pain? how.
@yuik
He said he liked it but it had no soul.
How does a marq have soul?
