model 98 and custom 98

[doggy_021]

I just have a question. I see people talking about custom 98 and model 98. What is the difference? because the flatline barrel system can work on both, but yet the custom is more expensive. I was just wondering what the difference was. Thanks

The Model 98 will probably shoot the same as the c98.

The difference is is that the c98 is more compatible to more upgrades:) Such as the response trigger, expansion chamber kits etc.

Of course theres a difference. In some cases, websites have the Model 98 more expensive. Also, the custom 98 allows the operator to add many more upgrades on it and more easier.

Look there is no real big difference. Some people feel they have to defend on or the other for some stupid reasone. the Model 98 has gills the 98c dosn't. Gills-----Big friggin deal. Thats the only big difference. The 98c is more upgradable. That's about it.

No real diff, just that almost anything on the 98C can be changed. There are a variety of options for both guns, its jsut that the 98C has more because it was designed with customizations in mind (etched places for the RT system to go, removable trigger, etc)

It's basically the exact same gun with a few minor diffrences. The reciever of the M98C has been slightly milled to accept drop-in upgrades (RT, LP Kit, etc.) without the need for professional installation whereas an M98 may need to be drilled, sent to Tippmann, etc for the same upgrade to be installed.

The same internals/valving system is used. The "gills" present on M98's have been removed on M98C's for whatever reason, nothing's different inside.

The M98 also uses a slightly different trigger to accomodate for a different trigger return spring. The trigger guard on standard M98's is also an integral part of the body and can't be removed/replaced like the ones on M98C's without the use of a hack saw, Dremel, or similar tool.
