    Machine vapor is the lone holdout that nobody has worked on

    This is pretty interesting info

      huh... on my side, there's 1 for it and 0 for the Deadlywind Aedes as the lone hold out.

      I’m a bit late to the party, but does it count if I tried to build my own aedes?

          Same here. I checked nearly every box, and I currently own all (in many cases multiples of them) but a small number of the ones I checked.

          Also I consider the Lurker Paragon and the Dye DLS the same gun, thus my vote on it.
          I can haz feedback?

            Considering the aedes was never actually produced, besides maybe a handful of prototypes, I’d be shocked if anyone’s worked on one.

            Im actually surprised at a few that I haven’t worked on. Probably a full dozen that I’ve handled or even shot but never worked on.

              Ok, who else besides me has worked on a vanguard demon?

              I'm kind of surprised the hostile creations rogue only has 1 vote. I would have figured it was more popular

                If you click on the blue button to the right of the vote count you can see who voted. In this case, it looks like it was moving_target.

                    Lol. That sounds about right if you don't want to dive head long into them

                    They are a fairly complicated design. They use 3 different styles of o ring and the later ones had tolerance issues from the factory. That's what happens when you stop paying the shop that makes them but are still placing orders apparently. Unfortunately there no real good way to know if you have one that has tolerance issues or not until you start seeing problems.

                    The vanguard creed also has the same tolerance issues but there's one way to know if you have a good one. The early ones were all fine and early on they did a run of factory splash anno creeds so if you can get your hands on one of those you are good. Problem is they are fairly rare, at best I've only been able to track down 2 of each color at any given time. At one point someone mentioned that there are only 10 of each color that were produced (eBay sale description)Nobody, even the current owner can confirm if that's true or not but it does seem to track.

                    I managed to get one of the splash ones oddly enough through local Craigslist but that was a complete fluke. I had no idea about any of the above info when I bought it

                      Successfully worked on and worked on are two totally different categories for me.

                      also, I’ve had different gamma core guns like 3 years now and I can really say I’ve ever worked on them because nothing has needed working on.

                        Does it count if you were in the same room as one, and holding an Allen wrench? That'd up my total by about 20%.

                      I'm shocked at the number of people who haven't worked on classics like a Phantom or Sniper, or even blowback semis.

                      I forget some people buy an Emek or Axe as their first and never use anything else.
