      Unfortunately the GMEK trigger plate adapter didn’t come with it - that’ll arrive next week.

    Got the g3 iq on Saturday from Ben06. He said it needed work. Only reason I bought it was these ndz bolts being available for 35 bucks. Got my bolt in today. So for 135 all in I've got a nice loaner.

    Tossed a chunk of braid at it. Tried to shim the trigger but it's just what it is for now.

    shimed the power button so the virtue board works with the membrane.

    And cleaned it up a bit.

    put a parabolic on it as I like the lines. Not sure what it's chronoing, but it holds air, eyes work, and it cycles.

      Like the size of these, the one I shot was a field rental so it had massive first shot drop off and shoot down at times, the squar grip was a little uncomfortable but it was a fun little shooter

      I hope this one is decent for whomever comes out to play. Between the virtue board, and the ndz engine. I'm hoping it shoots lasers.

      A little love from SGW. The grip had holes in the front so I thought it had electronics. Nope! Oh well, still a bunch of goodies included. The apex-ready Lapco barrel is a big win.

        Just unpacked all my A5 loaners for a pre-season check and not one of them, from the old style with hard paddles and one air accessory port to the newest iteration with the thumb lever safety and two air ports, has e-grip holes. They all have a hole for the RT piston, though.

        Still trying to move this one - I figured the camo would be more desirable but I guess I was wrong.

        Lhamilton.. well call me surprised.. I thought I've seen provisions for both on many occasions.

        I'm gonna go look at mine in a few. I have a stock a5 frame in an old e grip box also. But that doesn't do much for ya as you wanted the board.

        I’m up for learning new things - if Tippmann made mech grip frames with electronics holes for a while, it’ll cool down my enthusiasm for killer deals on SGW 😁

      Won a package on instagram recently. If anyone is looking for a laid back paintball podcast check out “The Center 50”.

      gmek wasn’t part of the package just threw it in.

        Yeah their podcast is great imho, perfect blend of serious paintball discussion and gear/nostalgia type topics.

        I was completely surprised when I won the package, some cool pieces in it.

          I’m counting on it - someone on the Ion OG group on FB will want it. I’m frustrated by the lack of easy bolt removal on these.

          Syx 1.0. This thing & its case are pristine. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out it’s never seen the field.

            Yeah I never understood why they didn't sell better. It's a better axe. They are a steal at resale prices.

            From a store standpoint they weren't visually appealing... This one is one of the more simple colorways if they kept it to that they would of sold better

            I definitely agree with you there. I think black is the only solid color they made. Some of the other colorways look ok (silver, black with silver accents, black with red accents), some are just plain ugly. Of course the “appendage” dangling off the front doesn't help. I feel it’s less noticeable on the solid black.

          Got my Docfire order in (sled and detent) so I could finish up assembly of my Super Secret Pump Build, and my parts from netsurferdude2 (bolt link) that I needed for my JeeperCreeper Cheaper Build.

          I didn't feel like doing much on my JCCB so I worked on my SSPB instead yesterday... mostly done, just needs some cleanup still.

          And God turned to Gabriel and said: “I shall create a land called Canada of outstanding natural beauty, with majestic mountains soaring with eagles, sparkling lakes abundant with bass and trout, forests full of elk and moose, and rivers stocked with salmon. I shall make the land rich in oil so the inhabitants prosper and call them Canadians, and they shall be praised as the friendliest of all people.”

          “But Lord,” asked Gabriel, “Is this not too generous to these Canadians?”

          And God replied, “Just wait and see the neighbors I shall inflict upon them."

            Thanks guys! Cal440 I've been collecting parts for a few months now, I built an 11/16" valve-compatible brass body that uses mostly off the shelf Cocker parts (one part was modified to fit). I bought some tubing that got machined for Cocker threads, so it takes conventional barrels too.

            Originally I wanted to build something like a T2 but I just prefer the look of a mid-block over a half or full.

            Gotta do a bunch more sanding/finishing, then I'll likely beadblast the body and let it patina or nickel the body... undecided.
