Psycho Ballistics Lightning pump

Camo Charlie · 03-21-2008, 06:23 AM

I am an Autococker fan. I own and still love playing with my '05 SuperStock (among the other markers that I own and have sold over the last nine years.)

In addition to playing speedball, I play woodsball primarily with a pump -- a rather inexpensive one too (ACI Maverick.) I decided to "upgrade" and tool around with a stock Psycho Ballistics Lightning, converting it to a pump.

It is still a work in progress but so far, I have added the following upgrades:
Evil Detonator Inline Reg
Warrior Paintball B1 Dovetail On/Off ASA
Warrior Paintball Dovetail Block Rail (not a big fan of drops)

The bolt, feedneck, and trigger frame are still stock.

Any other recommended ups? Thank you!

A t-stock. That's what I slapped on mine and it's FANtastic. Clears my mask and still leaves room to sight easily. Here's a pic of mine, although i'm thinking about getting a new anno for it. Either black or dark green, since it's a woodsball pump. Mine has a black magic reg on it also. Not much needed aside from that. *edit* I almost forgot my freakishly long barrel. I also threw an OpsGear Interceptor on mine. It's works wonders throwing paint downfield, and pretty quietly I might add.

Looks nice Ganon. Your posted pic reminded me to go with a smaller 50-round hopper. Thank you!

No problem. I would like to get a pocket hopper with a flip top. That way I could cut some speed tubes down for 50 rounds and fill up even quicker than with the 10 round at a time BE hopper. I'm happy to finally see another Psycho Ballistics cocker going pump. Although it does make me sad that I don't get to use the neat carrying case any more.

Geez, you can barrel tag them from distances the rest of us have to shoot from....

Nice conversion. Not many seem to like the PB stuff but I'm a fan. LIkely because it continues to be cheap to buy.

Indeed I can. I'm contemplating taking just a lightsaber onto a game and go for "barrel tag/knife" eliminations. Use one of those lightsabers that you sling to open up, then go after someone, just for the intimidation factor. Back on topic though, I like the PB cockers as well. That one was given to me to monkey around with, and it's current condition is what became of that. That barrel will go on my spyder too. WOO HOO for barrel adaptors.

Ended up with two Cocker pump projects, finished them both today.

I just picked up a Lightning off ebay from I&I Sports and was wondering what you run for an input pressure. Thanks.

On HP, mine shoots really well at 400 on a reg.
