Bought a Geo 3.5. Waiting for it to come in but I'm excited to have this one, something different. I only used the other other 3.5 once or twice. I know it's stupid but I really hated the green. This one is at least the right colors. 😁
Already bought and sold this one, but I did get to play with it a little on Saturday. I thought I needed a backup for my Insight since it had gremlins when I got it. I sent it to Flawless Airworks and he got it sorted out. So I will stick with the Emek and Insight for now. I like the Axes a lot, but the Mini just doesn't have the same appeal to me. I got it out of my system and now I have a great working Insight that matches my (OCD) color scheme and has the Rhino mod.
Added some parts to the Emek but I'm going to sell this body kit, along with the complete red grip kit, fang trigger and POPS. I ordered a red Ripper body kit. I love this one but I also have the Insight so the Ripper will look great along side it.
Not a new gun but for the cost, it's about the equivalent of one. I bought the red acid Ripper body kit for my Emek. This thing looks incredible. Sold the old body kit I had for it.
Yeah I saw the release pictures from cup and ordered it even though I had just got the custom annod body kit. It was pricey but I am publicly promising (right here and now) that this will be the last body kit I buy for it. Sorry Simon, after 4 body kits this is the holy grail. I am not crazy about the EZPZ though. I had to get them to send me the shorter pin for my tanks and it's really not as good as the POPs IMO. It looks great but I felt better about the POPs. I am worried it's going to disengage at some point while I'm playing. I played Saturday with it and it did pop off once before I played and it held the rest of the day, but it doesn't fit up tight like it should. Not sure why it was doing that but it worked. But it looks cleaner and is easier to turn on and off. The trigger and rest of it all look good. Funny thing is, when I was trying to shoot with the stock barrel, it would break in the barrel and only shoot at around 105. I changed barrels and it was fine. Not sure how big the paint was but my IC insert was 687. I thought the stock Stella was a 687 or 689. There's some issue with the barrel but I don't know what it is. I will look into it this week. All that being said, I'm still not sad that I got this and sold the other tri splash body kit. This thing in BEAUTIFUL outside in the light. It really stands out.
Just got the leak fixed and all cleaned up and shooting properly. Wow! I really like this thing. I love LV's and this is that feel but with a crisper trigger. This might give my Emek a run for it's money on the usage meter. It is fun to shoot and put a smile on my face. An electric hasn't done that for a while now. Fun to think an 18 year old marker can be that fun.
Traded the Geo for a LV1. Maybe this will be the last one I get for a while! Got the heavy rammer in and dropped the pressure and dwell. It's ripping super smooth.
Traded the Ego for a stock Emek. I also bought an upgraded Emek. I bought these for my oldest son and soon to be son in law.
Moving some configurations around on the Emeks. I'm moving the NCW frame to my recently added upped Emek and putting a stock frame back on the Ripper. I'm much more accurate with that frame. I guess I depend on the front grip more than I thought.
Bought this to let my future son in law use. I have 2 3D printed bodies coming in this week. I will put one on this and the other on the more stock one for my oldest son. That's why the feedneck is half on in the picture. I was looking to see what version of pal it had on it. I guess there was a difference at some point.
With the body kits:
Also sold the LV1. Going to try and stick with just the Emek for a while (edit: ok that didn't last long. Bought another Insight)
Added a Liquid Bone GTR to my Emek. It's hard to tell from the pictures, but it sticks out on the sides to let you use 2 fingers. I won't do it very often, but it's nice having the option. It feels good when you're just shooting it regularly. Since I play rec only, it might come in handy when playing against the guys ramping and pinned down somewhere.
Just bought another Insight, this time from ChuckLove. I can't resist these things! This one has both engines and should be rock solid.
Had my Carbon Zero mask dipped. Really like the new look and shade of red
Got the Insight today. Pictures can't capture how beautiful this thing is. Shoots great too.
They look pretty good together.
I was down to one gun and suddenly I'm back up to 6. All working and usable. I have some in transit to me currently but for Saturday when I go play I'm taking my ripper Emek and the newly acquired Insight.
By next week I will have, 3 Emeks, a 3M and an Etha2, plus the Insight.
After I get them all in I'm going to sort them out and get rid of at least one if not 2. I really need 3-4. One for me, maybe 2 and one for my future son in law and one for my oldest son. The 3M and the fully upgraded Emek will stay for them.
I'm building a single trigger Etha2 with flat red ripper body that has a M170R style frame. A single trigger Etha 2 that looks like an Emek should be fun. I'm going to keep the 3M and probably sell the more stock Emek. I'm debating what to do with the Insight. I really love the look of this thing but I'm not sure I need something that great. There's probably going to be some stuff up for sale next week.
Bought a Ressi from 77monteballer. I sold the stock Emek I had. EDIT: Kept the Ressi a total of 5 days. It worked fine but not really what I was hoping it was going to feel like. I did get it shooting really well and it was accurate. It's just not my thing.
I don't know what I will get next. I'm done with electrics. I'm debating buying a Nova N3 but I hear mixed reviews on them. Plus I know it will be hard to get anywhere near what I pay for it back if I decide to sell it. For now I'm sitting tight with 2 Emeks and a 3M that I'm going to send home with my son in FL when he comes up next week. He's giving me his XLS. I will probably sell that and may get another Emek for backup or the N3. If I go the Emek route I will get another FLE body kit for it and call it a day.
Got another Emek in from nak81783. I will use this as a backup or loaner. It will probably get the tri splash FLE body eventually.
About to part with this 3M and give it to my oldest son. It started out blue and black and is now (properly) a red and black 3M. I have really enjoyed using this in the process of getting it setup. He's going to leave me with his Pure Shocker XLS which I have had before and enjoyed using for a while. I'm probably going to sell it and get the tri splash FLE body kit for the one I just bought. I will probably opt for the color matching Fang trigger when I buy the body kit.
Got the Emek in and also bought a black FLE body kit.
The current collection:
Got my zeta mag adapter. Now I can play magfed! :P
Update: Sold the Shocker. Also bought a Nova N3. This thing is insanely fast! I can, in bursts, outshoot the CTRL. Got a shroud, shield and some inserts coming in tomorrow. I will probably keep this thing for a while. It's better than having an electric because it's so fast but mech. Heck I bet when I get used to it, I will get yelled at for shooting too fast.
