Just picked this upSo my parents are just giving me money for my bday. no complaints here but i wanted a physical gift so i used part of it to pick this up under 50 bucks off of ebay. it should be here in a few days so i am very very excited. i may still get the tm7 as well but i might have a deal for a tacone in the workings... we shall see. it all depends on how much the A5 sells for at this point.

It looks...heavy and slow lol.
but also indestructable. |
||||||
| BARKY |
heavy yes slow yes reliable yes
had one as my first gun |
||||||
| theJUDGE |
i never really thought this was a heavy gun. especially with my remote. the trigger pull wil be heavy but i may mopd that and hopefully get it to a lil faster cycling. | ||||||
| Squirlly |
Not Heavy but Heavy Duty. I love Pro/Carbines I retired me to backup status only once I got my Autococker. Get a truflight barrel for it, you'll be MUCH happier!! They use A-5 threaded barrels but there are VERY FEW that fit due to the forearm.

| BARKY |
yeah if you have a dermal that can help you vary in barrels ive seen a guy use a freak on one |
||||||
| theJUDGE |
I am thinking of sticking with J&J for the barrel. The regular barrels fit it but the kits give a problem. I will prolly just pick one up soon. I have seen it with a 16" and it shot nails but that is a lil long for me so i may go 12 or 14". | ||||||
| Squirlly |
12" barrels on a Pro/Carbine look short to me, my 14"s look the best IMO
-Tim |
||||||
| theJUDGE |
i will have to go and measure them up when i get it in. It will all depend on what i feel like at the time lol. i kinda have been feeling the compact gun so i may want to save on the 2" It ctually makes me wonder if a 10" would fit or even an 8". Would prolly look crazy and be too short but we shall see. |
||||||
| Squirlly |
I can measure the stock barrel when I get home tonight.... but the stock barrel makes it look like a sawed off shot gun just barley clearing the shroud might look like a pistol griped thing out of Mad Max. -Tim |
||||||
| BARKY |
MAD MAX FTW!!! | ||||||
| theJUDGE |
kinda what i might be going for 
|
||||||
| theJUDGE |
came in today. looks a lil beat up but nothing that cant be fixed. it was missing the linkage arm and the rear sight to hold the linkage arm in so i ordered those along with a new detent. should be operational soon. Also the stock barrel is 10.5" so i may go shorter. I will take it to the proshop and measure them up so see what i like best. knowing me i will prolly end up at 12" | ||||||
| theJUDGE |
here it is in all of its working glory... new linkage arm, meatl sight, and an 8" Lapco BigShot
|
||||||
| Squirlly |
As Yoda would say ...
mmmm me thinks be in the market for an 8" "A-5" barrel I am -Tim |
||||||
| theJUDGE |
if i get to go this weekend i will most likely pull this out and test it out a bit. | ||||||
| theJUDGE |
Well i think i am just about done fixing her up. I replaced alot of screws, painted some, new asa, shrink wrapped the lines, metal sight, new steel braid, painted the foregrip, and now really all thats left is to improve the trigger's looks with either paint or just some steel wool to keep it silver.
The beginning
After some time
and now

You can still find double triggers for those online. Makes a HUGE difference with that heavy pull. | ||||||
| theJUDGE |
yea but i just cant stand the look of them. i dont know if i would want one. i kind of like the sawed off shotgun look of it. | ||||||
| Squirlly |
Are you that big of a girly man? I mean it's not THAT heavy of a trigger pull. I have 2 Pro/Carbines (used to be 3) and I never noticed that much difference from my .45acp and it has an 8.2lb pull. -Tim |
||||||
| theJUDGE |
i also have a spring kit on the way and in there is a lighter trigger pull spring. should help out a little. | ||||||
| Bulldog |
When playing 2-day events like TWC and The Bash, and going through over a case, yes, my trigger finger would get tired. I prefer to use my... bird finger anyhow, and usually rest my trigger finger on the safety button when using a double trigger. |
||||||
| Dirdy |
Double triggers all the way. If you find yourself trying to outshoot a e-grip or any electric marker. Its nice to have some help with a lighter trigger.
Instead of using those ancient markers old heavy realistic feel lol. I couldnt not imagine going to one of those with what im use too, Even the autococker is heavy pull for me. |
||||||
| Squirlly |
Dirdy with your markers is it still a trigger pull or is now concidered a "click"?
-Tim |
||||||
| BARKY |
EGOs don't have to click anymore 
|
||||||
| theJUDGE |
lol if the cocker is heavy for you i dont even think you could pull my trigger
|
||||||
| Dirdy |
Yeah sorry, correction. More like a mouse click. My Occasionally Functional Spacegun is more like a tap if that. |
||||||
| theJUDGE |
well i just put the maddman kit in for the trigger spring and it is super light. kinda cant believe that its a procarbine im pullin. | ||||||
| Squirlly |
Dirdy I'm just busting your chops just becasue I can. I have the trigger on my Timmy set where it only travels about 1/8" and I've been shot on the trigger after being eliminated and heard 3 shots go off (I had it in 3-Round burst).... I've also picked up a new toy for $50 that may make me reconcider my no batteries in the woods stance. 
-Tim |
||||||
| Dirdy |
Thats a proto right what kind a Rail or SGL or something like that...i'm a little rusty on my markers right now its the off season lol. |
||||||
| Squirlly |
Nope that is a CO2 using 11bps max SmartParts Vibe  (Same internals as the SP1)
No eyes but it has an Anti-Chop bolt that works AWESOME, shoots UNDERWATER and at only 170psi. So it's like 1/2 an electro so only 1/2 the things can go wrong and my major complaint with electros in the Woods was getting wet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WZQBthIrz0 but this one is a better "real" scenario http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNjgS5zce2M&feature=channel -Tim |
