Blazer huricane?

Maybe I am a terrible person, but what would a Blazer mounted in a wood stock be. And am I the first to think of it. I mean the brass semis are storms, and the Aluminium PPS guns are named after fire. So would it be something like and inferno. I think that if PPS is willing to build one I might buy it. When I actually have money of course.

Of course what would the cost be, I am thinking somewhere in the 1500 minimum range. Because there would have to be an entirely new trigger mech built and designed, then there would have to be the labour on the stock, and getting the thing to fit and work properly.

Now that you make me think of it I have never seen a Nasty Blazer either.

Blazicane.

I had some elements of a possible trigger/mount solution mocked up.

you might as well go E-blazicane though.

The visual elements are not as attractive however and the stock becomes even weaker (assuming Kp stock) by the even more severe cutting required (IMHO, not tested in practice).

At this point I'd rather considering Hurcing a bare brass(as received for hot work later) MaddMatt Kp removable barrel KP clone, as really only the barrel option is desirable in the config element. The hurc can be worked both horizontal/hidden/faster 3 way anyway as is, so that becomes removed....all that's left is the hoses, and it would weigh less, important to some.

There are no nasty blazers, a body hack (likely require hoses), or a special body run/redesign of air paths ($$$ for a small run of bodies) would be required as I understand.

Personally I think that would look sort of wierd. Granted, I don't go for realism in paintball, and this isn't some major justification for that or anything; however, the lines and square chunk of a Blazer sticking out of a stock would just be odd looking in my opinion. Same for most random guns, tippmans, mags, whatever that get crammed into a stock.
Hurricanes with their sleek tubes and things just don't look as odd to me.

I agree about the pile of money it would take for such a conversion. Not knocking it- keep in mind this is coming from someone who has a nasty hurricane, a hurricane, DF KP2, SC KP2, and an order in for a Mad Rifle. I'm busy trying not to consider how much funding I have behind that portion of the collection.

So whats your best guess on cost? I was also thinking about an all nickel E-Blazer

I cannot make guesses to extreme customs for the shop, I dare not set some price in someone's mind that may be far from correct. I'm annoying enough to Craig as it is!

The East Coast Palmer enclave only does repairs and FAQ, as well as orientation immediately followed by disorientation! 100% natural!

A Blazicane might get you a quote of $10k.... ie, they don't want to do it but if you pay them that much they might think about it. But like incynr8.. I want to stay on Glenn's good side as I enjoy henging out with him too much to have him pissed at me.

You know, if I had 10K I might just have to fly out there and drop it on their table and see what I get.
