Ladies and gentlemen, children of all ages, feast your eyes on a somewhat mediocre collection of paintball paraphernalia.
What follows is my current collection of functioning and field worthy markers. Couple of projects in waiting in the wings and looking to add some new workhorses next year.
Brief history added to each marker if warranted. Will get better pics hopefully too.
Hope you enjoy and thanks for looking!
2006 Planet Eclipse Ego - ODD "Gone To Plaid" - I originally commissioned this marker with Lorne at ODD back in their heyday. Gun was purchased new and sent directly to ODD/Precision for the treatment you see. Everything is ano except the white which is laser engraving. Gun has not changed much over the years on the outside. I have swapped different boards in and out here and there, currently has a maniac. The original solenoid (which were prone to grip screw damage) has been swapped out for 2007 style along with the corresponding manifold. Some other misc upgrades as well such as the bolt and trigger.
Freeflow Caliber Autococker - "Excaliber" - Went the full custom route upon release from FF. Gloss silver to gold fade by Aesthetic with some King Arthur/Excalibur motifs engraved at the front (which are virtually impossible to photograph). Has the matching Freak XL barrel.
99-Spec Cousins Autococker - One of 5 body kits made for the Cousins chains of stores based out of NY/NJ (and that random TX one). I used to work at one of the stores where this was sitting in a case for years before I finally scooped it up and put it together. I sold this gun once and luckily was able to buy it back, even got the matching Cousins engraved J&J barrel along with it. Another gun that has gone through a couple of revisions over time with different regs, pneumatics, and trigger guts. My old regional manager checks in yearly to see if I still have it and hopefully buy it. He has 3 of the others, while an old Ground Zero player has the 5th. He will have to wait a bit longer.
Empire Mini GS - I don't know what it is about these guns but I just can't get enough of them. I think it might be the ability to customize with more unique parts inside and out as seen here. Has the Nummech VLP-X frame, Core trigger, and a beefier Empire feedneck. Always toying with selling or just going all out and putting a Redline board in. They are cheap, fun, and work well.
Planet Eclipse Emek - Had to jump on the bandwagon when the opportunity came along. This does have the DW valve and ID fang trigger installed, they made a huge difference. Got lucky to get it with the POPS already. Toying with getting an eclipse body kit to make this into a compact CQB stylized marker for use at scenarios, if I don't sell it first lol.
