A few questions for the applicant:
Have you ever fully taken apart your Blazer/Typhoon/Stroker/etc?
Can you ID Typhoons and Strokers at a glance?
What are your thoughts on the Tempest?
Do you know who Camille is?
How many shots per ounce does PPS claim that a Blazer will get?
How much does PPS charge to install a 45 frame on a PGP Stroker?
How much does PPS charge to turn down Freak barrels for a Blazer?
Who's the secretary at PPS?
How many PPS guns have you owned and what were their names?
Name a tech at PPS.
What color options does PPS have for a Typhoon?
What's a Painter?
What's a Grinder?
What's a hoagie?

I expect a "mod' to have vast knowledge and experiance. You lack the experiance and you have never owned the gear. Waiting for PPS to deliver you a marker doesn't make you an expert.
I do however admire your enthusiasm. If that were the only quality I was looking for I would be all for you.
Camille is the first gravity fed semi. She was born in 89 and stolen March 01. A sizable cash reward has been offered for her return. She is a big old tank. Easy to identify.

this is true but not nessessarily a must, lots mods are good but not great, however their comitted, on PBN every day for hours and willing to answer anything, help even if nots the right thing, plus im reading everything i can, on every owner site every PPS artical on their site and others, by the time i get my blazer and stroker ill be pretty stacked, but i really appreciate your concern and judgment is gives a base in which to start, and u will love my blazer when it comes, it a one of a kind, with the stuff on it

What's a hoagie? Well, that and several others were trick questions. A hoagie is a sandwich.
Lori generally anwsers the phone and takes orders at PPS.
PPS will install a 45 frame on a Stroker for $300, in other words, they will do it if someone is dumb enough to pay for it.
Good luck getting RP to mod on pbnation. He already mods POG, actionjackspaintball.com, OGOG, and a couple others.
Although based around the same deisgn, PPS makes just as many types of guns as WGP or Kingman. To be a mod requires some knowledge, although a lot of mods know little about the forums they watch. To be a mod in the PPS forum would require more knowledge than the average moderator. The same questions will pop up but the wording will be convuluted. People always ask about bolts sticking, triggers, sticking, PPTJ, 45 frames, Cocker vs. Blazer, Blazer vs Typhoon, finishes, costs, and Stabilizer questions.
Most people are scared to work on their PPS guns. People either don't know how or are afraid that if they mess something up, they will have to call PPS for help or send the gun in. Most of the time the problems can be fixed with oil, new bolt o-rings, cleaning the trigger assembly, or adjusting the Rock/Stabilizer/velocity.
Had you not ordered a centerfeed Blazer, you would have had my vote. Centerfeed is the work of the devil I owned for a short period of time a centerfeed Blazer. WE didn't get along. As soon as the season is over, my Viking will be converted to a right hand feed body.

Nothing's wrong with my centerfeed Blazer now...I no longer own it. I had some feeding issues with the centerfeed Blazer.

The feed tube was too short. I couldn't get a good stack of balls when shooting long strings. Because of this, I would occasionally chop. Besides that fact, I don't like centerfeed in general. I like to site down the top of my gun. If you ask me, centerfeed does nothing for balance. When you've played for 10+ years with a side tube or powerfeed, you get use to having some weight on the side. Centerfeed with a Wapr might be what I want (gets that big old hopper out of my way), but I'd rather run a Warp with a powerfeed, like it was meant to.

Ballyhoo
Warp feed on a left feed gun.... that's the ideal set-up for a non Auto/E-mag gun.
I'm trying to decide between Standard and Center feed for when I order a blazer in a few months, and I'm pretty much going to say high rise center feed for various reasons.
hey, would there be enough room to mount a DYE Invision sight behind the center feed tube???

woops! I called the Izon "invision"
once you guys get your Blazers PM me or get me on AIM
Asmodai86
and I'll try to get up there on the same weekend as you all are. But you'll have to let me shoot a few balls at the chrono...
I'm thinking a I might get a Phoon actually. Instead of a Blazer, but I don't know anything for sure right now
