That excal is so so so cool!

Rockin and rolling today.
Checked my pressure after playing and the Lazarus valve is shooting good at 200PSI. Really I was skeptical, but it seems pretty good so far.

KEEPER FAILURE: I was not using this one. It worked great but the frame wasn't right for my hands. So off it goes.

-A Kraken by Killshot Kustoms ~2017
Bob Long frame, pretty cool marker. Part of a run of about 80 I believe. Very nice bodies.

This would have been hard to give up. Just curious if the frame had side-by-side plate play that contributed to your decision? I'm asking because (I'm sure you know) they were made with and without horizontal glide screws.

[Hellion360]

Never saw this comment in a timely fashion. But no, that did not contribute.
I had brass tipped set screws in it and it was solid. The AKA plates are also made quite thick to take up side-play.

The finger grooves didn't match up for my hands, I have slender fingers and this was built for mitts.

Good lawddddddd!!

2004 Excalibur - Keeper Failure. Barely use any electros really so moved it on. It really is an incredibly well made marker.
Sci-Fi Board
So quiet, reasonably fast.

[Hellion360]

Truly a great shooter. Played with this at a local scenario on Sunday.

I have too many merlins and I am releasing one. You can find it in the High End Mech post.




- RKJ Full Body Merlin

Looks like a classic AKA round body but with 3 pill milling. This one has a lot of minor customization by Ryan Jamieson.

An Early Earon Carter Comp. Ended up selling. Owned for ~10 years.
A press fit unibody refreshed by me. Barrel replaced with a PPS nickeled brass in 680 with light wedgits.
Features a mix of ICD and Carter internals.

This marker has shot some famous faces like Painthappy and MAr I don't take this one out as much as I should really. My Phantom gets more SC action, but this is a neat piece. It was originally a darker green which you can see when the grips are removed. but it has faded to a really sweet metallic light green, almost Olive.

damn, you've got the good stuff

Out at the field today with my P-blocked Electric Skies S5.
Threw about a case through it without a hiccup. Shot a lot of kids with this today, only kids because I was the oldest paintballer today.

Took my orange Works out for an adventure today.
Shot great, no breaks, smooth. Shot it with my 17ci tank and got well over a hopper's worth from it. Almost a hopper and a pod, though I didn't actually run out.

At the end I asked a friend if they wanted to try it. Immediate multiple short stroke shots, the results were as seen lol. The trigger on this one is long and light, I should have reminded him of the needed shooting style... All the way in, all the way out. Must have blended six balls in there.

I wasn't planning to sell this... But someone came specifically asking to buy it with a solid offer. They have been enjoying it so its in good hands.
If another good deal on one comes around I'll probably grab it.

ID Predator.
Built from a used body to suit my style. So fast, so green.

[CatFarmers]

[Hellion360]
