Huh?? You've bought more new from PPS in one purchase than most people will in a lifetime! Or do you mean order something, like something custom?

Congrats Rabid, I hope I pushed you well towards the dark side

The wait will drive you nuts, it's a killer. It will feel so long you'll forget about your order (I did twice!) and BST will tempt you once again.

2 weeks down, 10 to go!!

I have basically been bouncing in my chair ever since I hung up the phone two weeks ago.

I have a dilema though and since I respect the opinions and experience of the Palmer's vets on MCB I will pose the question here: Muzzle Brakes for my Short-n-Nasty, Yay or Nay? And if the answer is Yay should they be black or nickel? (Gun will be Nickel) I have plenty of time to make up my mind and the cost is negligible so it is more a question of asthetics than anything else. So MCB..What do ya think?

Thanks for the assistance,

Fuzz

I ordered my nasty the week, Monday, before yours. Assuming if they started on it that week I'm either on week 3 or 4. Yes, I've got it mapped in Outlook. However, it gets here when it does.

So far I've bought 2 muzzle breaks in the forums for mine. I'll try them out and if they don't work then I'll sell them off.

My experience with the muzzle brakes is that they don't do much to quiet it (quiet guns are for sissies anyway), but they do help protect the end of the brass barrels if you were to biff and do a paintjunque-style 'core sample'.

Not looking for quiet at all..... More just wondering what people thought would look cooler. But the protection aspect is something to consider. Thanks.

I personally think they look better without them, but that is just me.

Whoa, whats that supposed to mean? Thats what the nickel plating is for, besides I consider them "scars" and they remind me of how much fun I have playing paintball.
