Who 'd a thunk it??????

TiggerV · 06-15-2008, 05:36 PM

So, I found my VM EXC at a paintball store a few months ago. Someone had brought her in over a year before and abandoned her. I grabbed her up for $30!!!

I have stripped her, cleaned her tweaked and twithched her. Since then I have picked up an HPA tank, remote, done the autococker spring mod. I finally took her out to an official field and chrono'd her.

305?? 308??? 299?????

Yeah, I slowed her down and all, but I did not expect her to be running THAT fast!!!!!!

Before I adjusted the valve, the Tommy Gun VM was shooting 450.

At the field I worked at we had a small kid (Matt) that use to play there all the time. Good kid with a VM that the gun weighed all most as much as he did.
One day a guy came off the field and said you need to chrono the little kid with the big gun. Then he showed us his shirt with a hole strait through it. We called Matt over and chronoed his gun, it was shooting 425.

We reamed him a new one because he was playing long enough to know it was shooting harder than it should have been. Luckily he did not hit any one before we found out. Like I said he was a good kid and we knew it was not intentional or else he would have been baned. After that he chronoed all day long.

Best I got was 438, 441, 440 all in a row without breaking paint. Falkey and a few others at GRC Paintball in the NY SouthernTier were a bit shocked when they thought I blew up the chrono.

I had a Vm-68 many years ago. Naturally I traded it in on something new and better(NOT!). Year and a half ago I decided to go old school and picked one up off ebay. Chronoed it at the field to see what it would do before I touched anything on it. Five shots in the 620-625 range.

Maybe the last owner was part of the 500+ club. They are a group of people that only play with outlaw guns 500+fps. those guys are sick hehe. It is fun to watch them play.
