I finally got my CP reg and my clamping milled ICD low rise. I can't wait to try them out tonight!!! :love:

I hope this finally fixes my problem with my pressure guage bouncing all over as my gun dips and spikes on every other shot :crazy:

Now I just hope my teams jerseys come in so we can go and have a cool practice and first tourney on May 16th.

I'm usually up near the Green Bay area and Appleton. Commando is best up here, and Outdoor Adventures is 2nd, but is a little pricey ($10 admit, Field paint only usually, and $100 a case for PMI premium, $5 all day air?).

I've been wanting to see Apocalypse though, which is just North of Madison I hear. I could try to swing down there for a weekend, but 5/16 is bad already, and 5/2 and 5/9 and 6/6 and 6/26 LOL. Those are all paintball dates already scheduled :o

Otherwise, drop me a PM, but make sure I reply LOL, because I never notice my PM's :o

Oh, and Off topic, but does anyone wonder if ICD settled with Smart Parts?

You know, I was thinking about that whole lawsuit, and thought, "watch ICD come out with a spin off to the Mag or autococker or something and quit making BKO's/B2k's".

Well, shortly after I saw this Freestyle come out which from my understanding works like an automag in ways... and then I see the BKO's went up to what, $350 now from ICD? I know they made some improvements though. But, marker prices are dropping in all other cases that I've seen, not going up.

Well, I just like starting Propoganda, and was wondering if anyone heard any NEW news about the lawsuit, and whatever happens, I hope ICD comes out good because I think they are a great company and have a good product and good customer service! I just thought that it was funny that nothing else seems to be said about it.

ICD settled awhile ago with SP, SP then went after AKA and the Viking, AKA decided to stop production on the viking to remove themselves from the issue at hand. AGD then took it a step farther and before anything could be done or presented to them they stopped the xmag and the emags. I believe Eclipse makers of the E-Blade also settled with SP

Yeah, I'm a Cheese eatin' Packer Lover :D

I was talking about the Freak Series up at Commando and Outdoor Adventures. Just a small run 3-man event, but definately awesome competition. Freak took 2nd and 1st a couple times in Chicago from my understanding at some PSP or NPPL events (can't remember which). I think they just play 3 and 5 man. They just ref this event though.


..... and Wow, didn't know that about SP. They sure made a mess of paintball marker manufacturing :( Just think if IBM had managed this with PC's back 10 years ago... we'd all be on 56 MB of memory and 266 mhz processors if we were lucky :(

Oh yeah, and I got my CP reg installed last night, and with the exception that my Macroline is just barely reaching it (LOL) it works awesome and from what I can tell is totally stable now.

So, now all I have to do is stick it over a chrono and see if I can tweak it from 260-280 where I like it shooting at. I don't think i'll have a problem. I can tell now that my LPR reacts evenly with my HPR, where as before if I touched the HPR, that was it, it was all over the place.

I have my ICD clamping low-rise too, but God knows how I'm going to get the old one off LOL. I'm going to my dad's to use the vice grips and some pipe wrenches I think LOL. I just cant get twist that sucker off by hand!!!

I can't wait to play Saturday now.

take a hair dryer on high to the threads of the feedneck for a bout 1-2 minutes then try twisting it off, heat should loosen up the loctit a bit and should be easier to get off. Use the bottom of a mouse pad for better gripping to while trying to do it.

I almost popped a blood vessel trying to get that feedneck off, that is because I did not use a hair dryer, only a small strap wrench.

Thanks Yoda, I thought maybe they used locktite on it. That will save me a few blood vessels!!!
