What did you get in the mail today?

[XEMON]

Flea market find ... might be the beginning of a single shot/blot action? 🤔

I approve…

[Carp]

Am I the only person seeing a fowl in this? 😂

[Cdn_Cuda]

Carp, I also saw duck before seeing your post.

Picked up a $40 Craigslist Cocker yesterday.
Needed a new detent, o-rings around the valve, and a full internal rubbing alcohol enema, but after that and some oil it's shooting fine.

docs pgp fast changers and a drop out valve from Bacci

was able to finally loosen a few of the seized up bolts on my buddys bushmaster so i threw the lonestar grip on the spartan too. valve seals and works great! unable to turn one of the alignment screws but the drop slot in that position is functional enough so maybe ill just leave it

bonus points for having my ol ladys diva cup bag in the backround

[Toestr]

Big thanks to BandAidFTW for the tip on this lot. Unfortunately the two old school Spectras it was listed with sold before I got to it.

But you got a sweet Xtreme Vision 280 SON! XD

The yellow lenses were after the recall so they are still usable. It also helps when fps limits are mostly under 280. Unlike the free for all the 80s and 90s were. .

[Tracker]

It wasn't just the yellow lenses, it was all of them, memory says there's was something about noncompliant lenses I think all the bad ones lacked a stamp that should have been molded into the plastic.. I can't remember and I doubt the wayback machine would be helpful

[Psycho91]

Always wanted one of those masks but the safety recall kept me away

[Tracker]

strangely enough, i got a USPS delivery monday
.
but i like what he brought me

i got this in lieu of being able to locate an FLE, at least now i have something to swap

I always loved the Kryptonite bodies. I always wanted to build a full block one.

[ketzer7]

Meteor F19 bodykit arrived today. I love the look of all Fabrice’s stuff. It has a crazy front end/valve chamber. There is no front block screw or the red chamber insert like in the past. The ASA screw holds the front block on, and that little blue “backstop” piece is what a valve spring would rest against. It accepts a Lazarus valve by default. I really didn’t need any more project guns but I couldn’t pass this one up

An F1 Illustrator, the grail gun of my teenage years. If it looks familiar, that's because it came from Cdn_Cuda...who is an awesome human being. I got it back together, put a C02 tank off the back bottle, dropped some paint in the hopper and sent it downrange in my backyard. Felt good to finally shoot one of these again. It double-fed once but otherwise handled some (admittedly old and rubbery) modern paint quite well. It did cycle a bit hard, but reading in the manual it can be tuned, so I'll look at how that's done.

Also handling one for the first time in almost 30 years, it is freaking unreal how small and light F1s are, especially when compared to their boat-anchor competitors in the early 90s.

I can't wait to take this to the local field and confuse the youngsters!

[Cdn_Cuda]

Glad it made it there safely. And alway happy to get a classic into the hands of someone who will use it!

[Drunkscriblerian]

Cdn_Cuda I definitely will!

Not gonna lie, figuring out how to get it back together took me a minute. It's been many moons since I even saw one of these, and I've never worked on them before. However, thanks to the manual and your breakdown I was able to get it back together and shooting. Was soooo much fun to put some paint downrange with it.

[Jordan]

+1 for Cdn_Cuda 's awesome-ness.

Got a warp right Mag body from Superman today.

I got a package from MrKittyCatMeowFace in the mail yesterday. I haven't opened it yet, but I hope it's filled with dildos and butt plugs!

[William the Third]

Well, MrKittyCatMeowFace didn't send any dildos/butt plugs, but he did send Raven Primal parts. However, as the saying goes, "anything's a dildo if you're brave enough"

[jetenginekyle]

whats the spring on the bolt for?

[William the Third]

The Raven Primal, like the Spyder EM1 it's based off of, are FASOR designs. That is, Forward Air, Spring Operated Return. It's a design that just uses air to push the bolt/ram forward to fire the marker, and a spring to reset the operation. It uses a simpler solenoid. Other markers that used the same design are the ICD BKO, DP Fusion (up until the "Elite"), Tippmann 98 E-Bolts, Diablo Wrath/Slayer/AR1, and likely many others I'm forgetting.

[zinger565]

Yeah, FASOR, just a different placement of the spring. A lot of FASORs have the spring on the ram

[Psycho91]

Got the dead space games from a place in town called 2nd and Charles

[homerj]

I love Dead Space. If you didn’t already know, 2 contains Dead Space Extraction, a pretty awesome light gun game you can play with the Move controller.

[Psycho91]

iv played the first multiple times just never got the chance to beat it, I love my ps3 some of the best games are on ps2 and ps3

[chplnstone]

lexiones (sp?) hellbay auction, ended up spending more than I intended... maybe one whole sterling & 4 pgp/pgp2k's, then a bunch of parts...

[chplnstone]

I'll be parting out most of it, I was mainly interested in some of the sheridan parts. already have an interested party for half the sterling stuff

[XEMON]

Any chance you got a spare sterling sear?

[snaparen]

i really like those soldering jigs.

[BigRed]

Picked this Hornet up locally. It holds air nicely and is in decent shape. I Didn't get the 007 that was with it as they wanted to put it on Ebay.

[The Great Equalizer]

I have fond memories of getting eliminated by a Hornet in the 90s.

[Ecapnation]

Finally got my white whale!

[The Great Equalizer]
