Has anyone put the bolt handle verticle? All you need to do is make a little slot and some magic work and it would be kinda cool/***. :P I'll do it when I get bored, Heck, i'll put one on the left, right, and on top of it, for kicks.

well u'd need to drill another hole in the HAMMER because the linkige arm need to stay in the same spot also the flat spot on the bottom of the HAMMER need to stay there to catch the sear and make a slot on the top of the body. sound kinda stupid, cuz the back sight is in the way, so u would have no sight. then u would have another hole for dirt to get into and messs up ur marker.

why would you want it vertical? I could understand if you were left handed and wanted to reverse everything. I wouldn't drill into the bolt, just rebuild your linkage arm so that it sticks up a little too.

Ehh... I am left handed, and i would cover up the first hole to begin with, take out my sight, because i don't need that in speedball :rolleyes: , and the slit would be smaller than the stock one so LESS dirt would get in, and when i dive, my marker usually falls on the left side, hence the side that the hole is on, but i'm going to get a Full Boar soon so I don't need to worry about that, and i probably will do that to my old old 98 just for fun.

yeah, full boar or rocket cock. The fullboar will cover it better, but the rocket cock is cheaper. I have the rocket cock, I like the look of the round thingie on the back. I wonder if Tippmann could make you a left handed version. They would just have to reverse everything. That would be kinda sweet I think!

Naaa it's fine... and the elbow is on the right side on the 98's so it's cool.
