Tracking down old markers

[Lt. head-shot]

Oh lord, too many to count. Even though I don't play any more, I'd love to get these back even just to hang on the wall. I'm too broke to even try to get them back at this point, but if I had a time machine...

This redux is floating around here on MCB, shot super well and had the remote line attachment so you could even shoot it in crappy PNW weather.



I sold this Intimidator for so ridiculously cheap it barely covered the anodizing cost... then Dragon bodies shot up about 300% and I kick myself for it.



And then the Godzilla cocker. Didn't think at the time that Nummech would never do another run of bodies... but here we are years later.

oh man, there was a grey body kingman spyder that i wanted back in the day with a similar black and gold drip anno like that. there were 3 markers and i could only afford 2 at the time. im still trying to find that one spyder that got away...
i THINK someone on here mentioned that they knew of it or had it at one point in time.

i read your "HandCannon" write up a bunch of times, dreaming about getting my hands on a Redux. When i finally did, one of my
first mods was swapping the front sight to a
dayglo Millet like yours (@pumpman 's now?)
such a huge improvement

[The Hobbit]

If I happened across my 98 custom pro, It wasn’t anything special but it did get me involved in the forums back in the day. It was far from special, just a standard custom pro( pre-act bolt) with an m4 stock, cyclone feed, and teardrop barrel.

Another one I'd like to see again- or at least know it hasn't been junked.



I was pretty proud of that one: Two tone "zebra stripe" polished nickel plating, ball-counter slots, a chromed grip frame, nickeled and RVA'ed back cap, tethered feed cap, shortened and reannoed Fasst-Changer, minor valve work, and hard-resin LAPCO fingergroove grips, meant for a 'Cocker or 'Mag single-screw grip, but modded and reshaped to fit the Sheridan frame.

Just about as cool as a PGP can be short of a Sergei brass K-frame. I hope it's still out there being used occasionally.

i had a Speed Master spyder SE that i wish i didnt sell.

[MAr]

stupid Dan stupid Bacci has this marker and won’t stupid sell it to stupid me

[cockerpunk]

only gun i miss was a trilogy comp that i converted to pump. 1.5 frame, PMP pump kit, otherwise totally stock. i think i might have paid 150 for the whole thing.

i probably dont even have a picture of it. it was the most instinctual gun to operate that ive ever owned. i won multiple 2 and 3 on 1s with it, it just "fit" totally instinctual. my multiple karni CCMed pumps? not better. it was reliable, simple, cheap, and it just fucking worked.

ive always loved the trilogy series, i frimly think that if instead of 2k jump, theyd done the triology jump at that time (along with the cost reduction), WGP would have faired better. the trilogy SF was a masterclass too.

I also had a Spyder Rodeo that I converted to low pressure electronic. It was fun to play with and quite accurate for a Spyder

[Sneak Miester]

Yes eyes added, that’s why I made eye covers

[Tarsun2]

makes sense lol. only asking because the grip frame looks like a stock unit and most all spyder of this era came blind; even the electros. it was only the vs/rs series and one of the electras that came with eyes? so i didnt know if it was purely for design aesthetic, which wasnt uncommon for spyder owners.

This is the full build of that Spyder

[Funsi00]

Don’t have a picture of it. Carter boxgun with BBA and bucket changer. That thing was so loud! And it was so fun also

[DocsMachine]

I still wanna know who ended up with this:

[waffles2]

It’s like AI before AI existed.

[FredMnkyDad10]

Were you going for max lines, weight or foregrip options?

[DocsMachine]

Yes.

Doc.

[Jordan]

Technically I've never had it - I'd love to get the build Walz did for me a few years ago but he stopped coming by the forum and hasn't answered any PMs about it so one day, maybe.

[Cdn_Cuda]

Twas a sad day when he packed up his llamas and left.

[DocsMachine]

Anybody know what happened to him? I'm hoping it's just a "lost interest" thing rather than anything critical, but last I can recall, he was building a whole new shop and dedicating a corner of it to just paintball mods.
Doc.

[Paintslinger16]

Looks complete, did you send money on this build?

[Cirtem]

My first marker. Spanky Fishbone blue/purple swirl. Sold early 2000’s. Pretty sure I found who owns it, unfortunately won’t sell.

[acrewofone]

Found a newer picture of the marker (converted to pump), I see it still has the Chris Cole screw in bolt, the 32 degrees barrel, and others parts that show it to be mine. That hopper mount was the last upgrade I did before I traded it.

What the heck did someone do to the upper front body annodizing? Looks like they stripped it off.

Found a newer picture of the marker (coverted to pump), I see it still has the Chris Cole screw in bolt, the 32 degrees barrel, and others parts that show it to be mine. That hopper mount was the last upgrade I did before I traded it.

Fyi.... There's many of these it was a body kit sold in the late 90's by wgp

[SockeyeSteve]

My first "high end" marker was a doodoo brown to orange fade shocker SFT. 1 of 30 ano'd for my local proshop. I know of 2 floating around one of which the shop owns/has on display.

If you happen to have one working or not, and you want money, a barrel of oil, bootleg hooch, a non running 70 series landcruiser, a Livingston, etc.... Shoot me a DM, I'd very much like to turn back time and not have sold mine.

[Falcon16]

I don't think I have a pic of it but I built my ultimate phantom back about 13 years ago. had a Jcurt 90, drop out valve, freaked barrel, undercocking hit etc. had it doing 40 shots at 280+ right until the last shot where it was at like 265 then vented. Most efficient stock class marker I've ever owned. My superstocker, which I'll never sell comes close but damn I'd love to have that thing back.
