    The 'Tippmann Affected' Tippmann Effect Custom Pro-E build

    Hey all! I decided to start a new project for the Summer, alongside a couple autococker builds! I played primarily with an ebolted 98 back in the heat of the BPS wars. That 98 eventually evolved over time into what it is now with the Karnivor frame. I originally built it because I was inspired by the Tippmann Effect guys, Natural Newbie and their ebolt setups. I wasn't as interested in the sear trippers that they used later on in 05 and 06, but since then I have come around to the idea.

    This custom pro is going to be loosely based off of this Black/Blue fade 98 custom I saw TE using at IAO 2003, and my old 98c around 2005. The 98 he was using had Tippmann's prototype ETS system, which essentially was an egrip that used an lpr and ram to trip the sear instead of a pancake solenoid like on the egrip. I am going to be using an e-grip with a morlock board and eyes.

    I've left some stuff tentative since I want to see how it'll look and I haven't decided if I will keep the cyclone feed.

    Build-list(tentative)

    Tippmann Custom Pro-Egrip(Gonna do black-blue fade using Duplicolor Metalcast)
    -Morlock mk4 board with eyes
    -Pure energy Flame drop or CP micro
    -CP 10 inch or Dye 10 inch or 14 inch Lapco Bigshot
    -CP mini on off
    -Techt light spring kit(I am going to find even lighter springs for the valve)
    -Techt fang trigger(My plan is to hide the fang trigger by milling a channel in the back of a tippmann/Psycho ballistics double trigger and turning that into a trigger shoe)
    -Techt lightened hammer
    - blue/black diamond cut 1911 grips(going to drill recesses for tippmann "E" jewels.
    -Lapco charging handle
    -Lapco rear velocity adjuster

    This will get it's own post, but I also was able to find a nib bt-4 erc for next to nothing. I'm going to turn that into a speedball gun or possibly even e-bolt it after the Custom-Pro.

    While I'm not going to be using ETS, I thought I'd still share a little about it!

    I'm going to play with the Custom-pro tomorrow as-is and start the project next week. I also tested my Kar-98 out and surprisingly it holds air and works fine after ~17 years of sitting in my gun bag! I was able to get a shooting video today.
