Man, the Gen4's about a week from being done (dam used solenoid) and I want to go shoot some stuff. YAY! no more MR2. I might actually get a shot off this year.

Cyberthrasher_706 · 02-14-2009, 09:03 PM

All I have right now is pictures of it throughout the building process. When I get my new camera I'll take some good ones. Sometime this next week. Here's a link to the ones I have up on my site right now.

lookin good man

i've always loved gen4s

Cyberthrasher_706 · 02-14-2009, 09:31 PM

The real picture is going to be sitting next to my wine-red Les Paul. I really don't think I'm going to build another Gen4 from scratch though, some of those parts are kind of a pain to find.

Hey man if you need a gun while the Droid gets anno'd LMK, the Etek should be back this week....I am not posting any pics so if anyone wants to see it come to the @#$ing field when it opens...

BenAdventures · 02-15-2009, 11:47 AM

DPB or Souz, did you guys get the g3 yet? If so, did you fire it up?

Sweet, i'll def take you up on that. lmk when it gets here!

souz4402 · 02-15-2009, 04:16 PM

yea I got the G3 a couple days ago...its really small and light...only shot about 500 out of it so far

it shoots really nice but the real test will be after a couple of cases are put through it playing

BenAdventures · 02-15-2009, 05:17 PM

I'm still debating between the G3 and the new SLG. Although the PMR did cross my mind.

painfaction · 02-15-2009, 08:46 PM

honestly i love pmr's for the money its a great marker....but i have a droid

and man, i can't wait to overshoot and bunker you fools again.

Gen · 02-15-2009, 09:19 PM

I can't wait to actually shoot something...anything

For the money, the new PMR is excellent. It's no wonder proto didn't come out with a PM# this year, it'd have to compete against that beast.

Would anyone be interested in making a beginner team for Grandview... or maybe a really really terrible intermediate team, because I think I might be one of the few people that shows up at FTW regularly and hasn't been in any tournys. I'd still be using my mech cocker (with Prophecy now though

)

Karl? Whats up man!? Good to see that some of the regulars will be back this season

BenAdventures · 02-16-2009, 01:15 PM

I'd like to get into a beginner grandview team. Although, I can only make it to FTW about every other weekend with special exception here and there.

I'm pretty much sold on the PMR. It looks like it's worth the extra 150. I'm awaiting my taxes which should be here before March. I'm definitely getting the Rotor as well. And, of course, several other goodies.

Make usre that you get the UL frame on the PMR, it makes all the difference in the world. I would recomend that you talk to Marty and see if he can still get the Deadly Wind barrels do to the fact that they rule all.

BenAdventures · 02-16-2009, 01:45 PM

I think the 09 PMR is stock with the UL frame. How much are the Deadly Wind barrels? Around $90?

BenAdventures · 02-16-2009, 01:49 PM

And I'd need inserts for those too, right?
