Jonnydread Did a full rebuild and splash style paint job for Mr Dread. Fun project.

[Brokeass_baller]

I might copy this somewhat for one of my Tipps. What did you use for the splash? Regular latex paint and shake a brush?

[NONOBLITUS]

Brokeass_baller sorry I completely missed your question. I stripped the body to bare metal then used acid etching primer for a base. Sprayed the body solid green then would splatter other enamel paint with a small brush and string. Multiple stages of drying. Then put 3 coats of clear on everything

[Brokeass_baller]

It's all good man. I appreciate the reply. I'll be voting your technique in the future. Lol

Here's my impatiently-painted-in-the-backyard TiPX!

[Myrkul]

A "subtle" 98.

Sight rail, 98, and finger grooves have been filed off. Fresh powder coat. Polished internal clam shells. Safety holes have been filled in with JB weld. Both trigger springs have been lightened. Gas line has been drilled out, Valve plug has been swapped with a smaller carbine style plug for more volume. Trimmed black warrior spyder valve spring, weakest mad man striker spring. Dead On RVA. LAPCO cocking handle. Front bolt has a rear "o" ring upgrade, and a ramp added. Feed neck has been ported for blowback and has the wobble "o" ring fix. APP Front Grip. Not sure if this counts as a sleeper or not.

[Jonnydread]

Wow that'a really nice build! I love the APP front grip, may have to try and find one myself.

[Myrkul]

Thanks man! APP still has them listed on their site, and this one came from Tippmann parts so they have them in stock as well. I always hated the stock finger grooves.

The green is beautiful. Did you have it anodized or powder coat? And what's going on with the bolt... it's black?

[Toestr]

uglyduckling sorry I just saw this. The body is an ex rental from a field in Oklahoma. The owner was selling them on FB for $10 each and buy two get one free. It's anno'd and it was done after factory (the lasered warning label is visible underneath). The anno was actually in really nice shape considering, but unfortunately I spritzed it with vinegar right after I got it and it left some tiny specs of discoloration. The internals are all swapped out from someone's personal Prolite that I got in that buy two get one free deal (the ex rental internals were much worse). It must have been from a different generation because the hammer is black (blued?) and has more squared cuts compared to the rental hammers.

I like what you did with the stock there!

Some action shots with my favorite carbine at a couple different scenario games (fulda, a PBC game). I was recently able to acquire a brass (didn't know these existed) vertical ASA for it as well as a palmers barrel. Neck and neck with my thundercat for favorite shooter at the moment.

[Myrkul]

You have excellent taste.

[Brokeass_baller]

I feel like I'm surfing through old WARPIG galleries.

A 98 custom I sandblasted and repainted. The Flatline barrel will be going.
