An x-chamber would be good. ACI or Psycho Ballistics make good x-chambers. The Responce Trigger is good also. Then you can just add whatever you want like rear cocking, rear velocity adjusters, scopes, drop forwards, whatever you want.

all depends on what type of player u are. if ur back, get an xpansion chamber, remote. u've already got a good barrel:tup: . if ur looking to play front, ur 14" is ok, i play front and i have 14". but get a drop forward, or remote either or, so that ur gun isn't too long. because when ur playin in close proximity to the enemy, u need a clean, accurate shot. getting the tank out of the way facilitates just that.

Thanks both of you. Any one have any idea of the price of some of these thigs? I am veryinterested in a remote, and please explain a drop forward. I Know what it is, but what dose it look like, and how does it work.

a drop forward- "drops forward" your tank to give u more room.
a remote eliminates any tank. u screw in the remote to the ASA, and attach the other end of the remote to ur tank. put ur tank in ur harness, and ur ready to go!
here is my drop forward.

here is my brothers 98custom with a 32degress Coiled remote. if u get a remote, get the COILED...his remote was $30. my drop forward was $30 at www.paintballarmory.com . same price, same principal; to get ur tank out of the way. the type of drop forward i have is meant for large tanks (not that it has to be, it just looks better. having a 9once on my gun would look silly b/c i have such a big drop-forward.

this is specter542's brother...the aircannons aren't something we mess around w/ b/c they can be really lethal. here is the site.
to show ya how much dammage it can do, we shot a flag pole THROUGH me friends wooden fence. it was kinda funny b/c the fence never moved, the pole went right through!

its really a preferance what you want, go play a few games and see what you think news to be upgraded, but some of my favs are remotes, rear cockers, sight rails(looks), NEW trigger (this is a great upgrade)

We can't play with my big white aircannon because we don't have a pressure gauge on it, or any way to measure its FPS. The thing is extremley powerful, I broke my fence with it, I shot a small clay ball out of it, and it blew a whole panel off. As soon as we get a chrono, we can play with it.

For upgrades, an expansion chamber or a remote line is a good idea, an aftermarket barrel will also help.
