| If you can't be bothered can I buy that superbolt? Always had a soft spot for them. Anyway, first thing we need to know is the 'surgeries' your body has gone through. -Half-Blocking -Midgeting -Mining, now if you minied it you will need to find a pump kit that is a MINI kit. Can't stress this enough. DO NOT buy a pump kit that is not specified for minis. Now since your using a superbolt, you need a POST-2k (pre-2ks means cockers made before the year 2000 and post means anything after the year 2000). The only kit I can recommend is a CCM, they are the pinnacle of buttery smoothness when it comes to pump strokes. If you minied it you need to find a CCM Mini kit, these aren't made anymore so find someone through MCB (this site), Halfcocker.com, PbNation - Paintball's Home Page etc to sell you one. CCM has 'hinted' (pmed a CCM rep over on the nation and they said a definite 'yes'.) that they will be re-introducing the CCM mini kit sometime during summer. Up to you on that one. If you haven't minied it just go to CCM's website (Chipley Machine) and buy a A/T kit with pump handle. Another alternative is to sell you super bolt (hint hint) and buy a CCM S6 for $500+ any extras you want. The S6 is the best (in mine and many others opinions) factory produced cocker-based pump marker. You get everything you need to start apart from ASA, ASA rail and a hopper. You said you were new to the sport: are you changing to pump to become an above average player (at the end of the day that is) or are you doing it to save some cash? If you don't already have a nice tank(for a cocker-based marker) and don't want to spend enormous amounts of cash a phantom marker is a good choice. Head over to ThePhOG.com - Phantom Owners Group for everything you need to know about phantoms. How-to: How to Prepare your 'Cocker' to become a 'Sniper' (Pump). - PbNation Not taking credit for that one. Arpie

| The Superbolt is what is known as a mini autococker. It comes that way stock. On a mini cocker the vertical ASA is on the front block rather than on the main body and the body is shorter. Converting to pump replaces the front block and thus you loose your air inlet. So to get the air or CO2 into the body on a mini conversion the kit includes a new front block. This means that you will need to get a mini-cocker pump kit such as the one sold by White Wolf Airsmithing. While WWA does nice work there's been some issues with ordering directly from him over the years. However he sells stuff on Ebay and from all I've heard delivers on time in this instance to preserve his feedback ratings. CCM made kits in the past but are not presently selling any. But occasionally a kit comes up for sale.
