thanks alot guys, I think I'm going to get the stickies.

If you don't want to cut up your grips but still want a double trigger...get a psycho ballistics double trigger...that's what I got and no cutting required.

pyro875 · 06-27-2003, 07:27 AM

I was going to get the PB 2x trigger, but then I found out it was plastic, as are most 98c trigger. The only 2 that arent is the toxic and the promark stick. Does any one know of any way I could just buy the pb guard?

willpill · 06-27-2003, 02:23 PM

i dunno where you can buy one , i dont think cutting grips is that bad tho... toxic performance is nice. but try them first

and for my question. would getting a female palmer with c02 and then getting a T fitting so one hose goes to the ebolt. would co2 still be to bad for the ebolt?

What's wrong with a plastic trigger? I've had mine for over a year and nothings gone wrong with it.

willpill · 06-27-2003, 06:50 PM

same here.

plastic trigger - strong light plastic trigger

pyro875 · 06-28-2003, 01:58 PM

nothing is wrong with a plastic trigger, I just like the feel of metal. I'm sorry if I offended anyone, I guess its just a matter of taste.

No worries, I was just curious.

Hey I was just wondering if the lapco 2x trigger guard would work with the toxic double trigger? Thanks alot for all your help.

llSmithll · 06-30-2003, 06:44 AM

try it and find out

MooMaster · 06-30-2003, 12:42 PM

Hey all. I'm new to these forums and sorta new to the PB world. I was dumb enough to rely on the reviews on this site when buying a barrel (didn't really help; everything gets a ten). So here I am asking real people.

What's the beset barrel for a M98Custom in matters of simply (1) Range and (2) Accuracy. It can be heavy, ugly, loud or expensive, I don't really care. I'm just looking for some experienced opinions on what I should be getting. Thanks for your help.

llSmithll · 06-30-2003, 12:44 PM

seeing as this is your first time, ill be easy, but this question belongs in the Barrels and Paint forums
pmi razzor, jnj ceramic, lapco bigshot, take your pick, they are mostly the same

The Kampfer · 06-30-2003, 12:59 PM

If you don't care how much it costs I will say Dye Boomstick. $99.
And use good / expensive paintballs.

About Range, keep this in mind since you are new.
All barrels has the same Range. No difference.

Welcome to the Tippmann family.

pyro875 · 06-30-2003, 01:46 PM

I use the sp progressive, and it shoots great, the lapco bigshot is also very nice. Once you get more into the sport you might want to try the dye boomstick, or a barrel kit like the freak, or pipe.

Welcome to the Tippmann family.

Except for the Flatline, all barrels have the same range.

And Moo, the best would be an Ultralite if you can find it. The same performance as a Boomstick, except cheaper and lighter.

MooMaster · 07-01-2003, 06:59 AM

Yeah, I was looking at the two and couldn't figue out which one it went in. This thread is, however, about questions and answers for tippy upgrades, and that's all I have here. I thought it fit.

In terms of accuracy, assuming both barrels have paint that fiits the bore size, which would be better: Ultralite or a system like Freak? I've heard amazing things about both, but am not really sure which one has the edge on accuracy. Or it could be such a small difference it doesn't matter...but I'd like to know what to be looking for.

Thanks for your help.

llSmithll · 07-01-2003, 08:18 AM

look at your field paint, and use the charts that are in the paint and barrel forum stickeys. which one will be more economical?

Opps, I forgot the Fatline.

The Ultralite. Barrel systems are pretty much useless on open bolt guns. A nice medium - large bore barrel will be pretty much all you need as almost any type of paint will work fine in it. You may want to take this question to the Barrels/Paint forum and see what they have to say.

And Kampfer: It happens

pyro875 · 07-03-2003, 09:04 AM

Hey guys, I got my new trigger and i love it, but I am now interested in either getting a pro team power feed, or lapco direct feed, which do you recomend, and which is faster?
