Pballer413's past and present guns

Infamous LV1.6 (1 of 40)
The Infamous SL74 is a marker that has always come and gone in my collection. I really liked the design and every time I buy one, I tell myself I am going to keep it, just to ultimately sell it down the road. When I saw they were remaking design I figured I would buy one and put it in my collection. I am shooting more spools now so it's been sitting but I will get it out eventually.




Infamous SL74, as mentioned above one of my favorite guns and I have probably owner 7-10 of these throughout the years and always regret selling. Maybe it was all meant to be I recently took a flyer on one that was sold in non-working condition. Seller was asking for appraisals and people were giving low ball values in my opinion, so I reached out and eventually was able to purchase the marker. I was surprised when it came in to see that it came with the original box, a lot of the stock goods and is in really good cosmetic condition. Also, after a quick breakdown and lube it is shooting with no leaks so it will be out on the field soon. Need to find some stock grips for it but I just threw on a pair of leopard grips I made for the time being.




My ODD Collection for those not familiar with Odis Driftwood Designs they use to offer very custom designs for guns. I generally don't feel the (1 of 1 guns) due to lasering or anno but I do hold ODD guns on a different level. If you would like to see more of their work http://oddpb.wordpress.com/ is a site that is kind of a tribute to them and the other guns that they did.

Air Assault Paintball Veterans Day
I was in the Marines so my "man cave I guess" is a mix of military and paintball. That being said these makers seem to be a fit.
Quote from Air Assault regarding the Markers
“Here at Air Assault Paintball we remember Veterans Day every year. Veterans Day is not only a public holiday dedicated to honoring United States military, it was also is a day to remember the end of World War I. Every year Veterans Day falls on November 11th and is not to be confused with Memorial Day. Veterans Day celebrates the service of all Military Veterans, while Memorial Day is a day of remembering fallen men and women who gave their lives while in service. Although there is no mail service on this day we will be open for paintball play. In honor of both our current and fallen military Air Assault Paintball has released multiple limited edition Planet Eclipse veteran paintball markers since 2009. Two of the most memorable editions being the USMC EGO 11 and the POW*MIA LV1”

POW MIA LV1.5 (1 of 12).
This is the first gun I have bought new since the release of the Ion. I wish it was released in the rising sun theme as well, but beggars can't be choosers, I guess. I paired this up with a pair of CSL screws and barrel tip.


Game Play at Living Legends 11


POW MIA LV1 Rising Sun (1 of 12).
Again I wish the LV1.5 would have been in a rising sun pattern but I was able to get an LV1 with it.

United States Marine Corps EGO 11 (1 of 24).
Designed by Gary Reiersen and produced exclusively by Planet Eclipse for Air Assault Paintball. I searched for this gun for years, and probably get more messages to buy it out of my collection that any other. Currently has two matching barrel backs, CSL screw kit, DART Kit, and some custom Walnut grips that I made for it.


Gameplay at 3rd annual Halo game at Commando Paintball


Loved the first one so much I bought a second, reg is beat up guessing someone used a wrench to remove it at one point and removed the anno as well but still an awesome looking marker to me.


Rising Sun POW MIA Geo (1 of 12).
This marker was the second marker in my collection. The "rising sun" POW is one of my favorite designs. This was my main marker for years, I upgraded it with IV core has three-barrel backs and shoots great. Recently retired as I am using my LV1.5 as my main



Had a teammate using this for Commando Paintballs Star Wars

Adrenaline Luxe anno done by Outlaw "Foil" This gun took a long time to come in but when buying I knew if I was going to pay for a custom anno I wanted it to be something I would keep. I decided to see if the could do the USMC Raider logo on the marker and they were able to get it done. I really liked the foil anno's I had seen Outlaw do so I went with that as a base. I am not sure the two ideas where the best mesh but I like how with came out.




Aurora Luxes

DLX Luxe Nebula Plated (1 of 1 Test Gun from factory) Stole some information from prior owners because they had done some research and added some of my own findings below.

Justice Paintball stated that there was originally 3 aurora/nebula plated markers came from factory (1 was a test body for aurora; 1 was a test body for Nebula, and the 3rd was a fully completed Luxe in aurora). The one I have pictured below is the Test Body for Nebula.

Through my own research I see that a user on pbnation cutstep (no longer active) appears to have been the one doing the aurora for ODD at the time. He mentions that aurora plating can peel and anyone that has owned or seen the aurora 07 ego parts may have witnessed this. Cutstep mentions if applied properly you wont have this issue and I will say that this Luxe has been applied correctly, it shows definite wear to the point of the aurora finish looking chrome where it was handled heavily but there are no signs of pitting or flaking on the gun. In Cutstep's thread he does state that he did a luxe for Darryl trent which would coincide with the information from TorontoCore and Justice Paintball.

Nebula I got this gun in and TorontCore had done some modernizing but I wanted to do a bit more. I part swapped the frame from a gloss black OLED Luxe so this is now an OLED all the way around except the body and eye covers





Bad pic but game pic at Battlefiled Paintball in Osseo WI


See above, this was one of the three test bodies as well (the aurora) only seemed fitting to end up back where it belonged. Since I brought the Nubula up to speed I wanted to do the same with the Aurora. I bought a white OLED but I wasn't happy with the combo so I ended up getting a T800 OLED Luxe and swapped the bodies. End result pretty shiny but I am pretty happy with the looks.

Cocker
Just got this cocker in and it really is a team gun that I am very happy to hold on to. Paintball to Go in Roodhouse IL had a scenario game Battle on Monte Casino that Dan Colby and Bud Orr both generaled at the last two years. The team I am on played both years and this year the field hosted a "Top Gun" pump tournament the night before the game started. They took 50 volunteers and gave us all Sniper auto cockers and we played 1v1 to see who would be the Top Gun. The team I am on SAS Yeti Squad entered almost all of our players to increase our chances of winning even though most of us have never played pump but fortunately the plan worked and the final match was two of our players playing against each other. The guy that won the gun is not a big cocker guy so he knew myself and another teammate would really appreciate it. Bud said he thinks this is a one of three in this fade and this one was never issued out and came with the box that both Bud and Dan Colby signed at the event.

Dye/Proto/Matrix

Freeflow Trix


IM9 Claret & Champagne (my favorite colorway the came in) I first saw the IM9's when a friend showed me a picture right before we came back from Iraq (forgot the magazine but this was in 2009). I saw this exact color IM9 and decided I would buy one. I was deployed for most of 09 so I wasn't able to get a new one but I did eventually get one in my collection. I have had a few other IM9's as well (Ice and the black and red). This one is in great cosmetic condition the crosses are still red which always faded on these.


My ODD Proto #41 I remember seeing this on ODD"s site when they were around and it made me decide that I would send something in for them to do work on one of mine. Unfortunately when I got out of the marine's they were no longer around, so when I saw this come up for sale I was excited to get it. I was told by previous owner that it has never been used in a game before and it looks that way.

cp on off
cp barrel (someone has two matching backs that were parted when sold)

Bob Long

Bob Long Marq, honestly not a gun I really thought I would have in my collection but I liked the anno work and figured it was a pretty neat piece to have





DragonProject this gun needs to be rebuilt completely. I bought this in a lot with 14 other Timmy's and while I was going through them my at the time 4 year old daughter who loves dinosaurs and dragons said she would buy it. I told her to get her money and she paid 35 cents for it she has since bought a dye cf barrel with PGA green tip that kind of matches the gun. I guess this will be her upgrade from the ebolted 98

Axe

Simonizer. Simon has his own thread about this Axe that he made while bored so he started milling on it. https://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=3800614. I was friends with one of a guy that had the best axe collection at the time. Unfortunately it came a time for him to downsize and I helped him out by buying a large portion of his collection. I wanted to keep a few of the rarer pieces.


Vicious Axe 001 Gloss Red shows some wear but still really cool looking marker

Joker Ace these are sometimes referred to as the poor man's Westwood as it has the 5 scoops. This one is in a Factory anno of dark blue to light blue with a white splash. Pretty awesome marker missing the stock barrel but great looking marker

Aradus Barrel I actually just recently learned about these. They have a control bore based on a rotating system (similar to the apex) but it changes the bore of the barrel. I have not used it in a game yet I have heard it had issues but was still an interesting piece to add to the collection




PMI Clear barrel pictured with the spyder to cocker converter


Ramrod spyder threaded


Barrel Condoms I have shelf of barrel condoms from over the years but pictured below are a few that I have come across that I don't see often

Aardvark


Keely Watson this barrel condom just screamed 2000's paintball to me from the splat magazine to Keely was one of the few barrel condoms I bought for more than I would be willing to admit


Smart Parts (Bea Youngs) I met Bea briefly at the Challenge for Children a few years ago and she seemed very nice, I actually bought one of her jerseys for my collection and wanted to add the barrel condom as well. The other two smart parts girl condoms are there but really aren't to hard to find and don't mean much to my collection

Freak

Gotcha Original Nintendo Game with Case Manual and cartridge
