"dead" means present but disabled...

[The Great Equalizer]

Is the "Pooper Trooper" Coyote Brown, or is there a much more disturbing story behind it?

[Cdn_Cuda]

It was part of an MCB POS build. It's a storm trooper/Poo themed marked. So black and white not tanned. Here's the build thread. https://www.mcarterbrown.com/forum/c...?s-poo-flinger

[glaman5266]

Ok, I guess I’ll make a tracking post… Though I doubt I’ll be able to use them all. I don’t play often enough & I will have a lot going on as this particular year progresses.

Etek 5
2K2 BKO (need LP hose)
2K3 Angel LCD (non-functional, unsure why)
Emek
Trilogy Tactical
Pro Carbine (currently modding)
Pre-2K sniper
PMI Trracer
JT Excellerator 6.0 (needs a rebuild)
Early 2000s Spyder Xtra (needs a rebuild)
’04 Piranha SRT (needs a mech frame or new board)

I have two Stingrays for sale, so I’m not counting those.

[zinger565]

If the BKO LP hose is the same as the Freestyle LP hose (I think it is?) I have a bunch. I can mail you a piece since we're semi-local.

[coyote]

I wish I played often enough to accomplish this.

[Magageddon]

I'll give it a shot, I cant guarantee that I'll be in possession of all of them at the end of the year, but I'll see how this goes. I'll probably be adding to the list too lol

Which one Johnny? The one I grabbed from Hellion or the one out at anno?

Here's the one I grabbed from Hellion: https://www.mcarterbrown.com/forum/b...814#post317814

[Jonnydread]

I specifically meant the one that's out at ano, but that other one is nice too! I like how the midblocking circumvents the obnoxious P-block.

[zinger565]

Ah, okay. Here it is pre-anno:

https://www.mcarterbrown.com/forum/paintball-news-aa/collectors-corner/316340-zinger-s-collection?p=370758#post370758

[binson]

You have a golden Phantom?

[Jonnydread]

binson yeah it’s a spattering of gold, yellow/gold and a little black or gold black acid wash. Eventually going to ano the whole thing gold to match, but it’s not quite done yet.

[bellicose]

Wait, you guys actually play paintball? I thought we just collected them?

[Cdn_Cuda]

Shhh… we all tell our wives we actually use these and not just collect them.

[coyote]

This post made me consider something.

I have not played with over half of the markers I own. That is due in part to redundant platforms. I have a few CCM semis and several PE eblades. The specimens worthy of wall hanging status tend not to see the field. I kind of dig "player" grade guns. They just have more mojo.

[Jonnydread]

and they unequivocally shoot better

[Nish]

Oddly enough it's the valuable wall hanger types that I use most and the beat up old players guns that see the least use.

[coyote]

I have reached a point in my life where I am inarguably "player grade" myself.

What's that thing we say when someone finds a great old cocker or mag? "Replace all the seals, those old orings are shot!"

[MrBarraclough]

So far I've used my mag, cocker, and EMEK, the last of those being my primary anyway. Just got to show the CZR and SLG some love and I'll be set, since I gave the Rail away as a Christmas present.

Oh wait, I finally installed the replacement breech I got from Bacci, so technically the old 68 Special is up and running and now counts. Well, that will be interesting.

[RichM]

I had decided at the end of 2022 that all my guns would get field time this year and have been tinkering away since the fall to get everything ready... promised myself that I would not buy/start any new projects until all the existing gear was ready to play with!
