Are you guys telling me that only 7-8 members have any kind of project going on at this moment?? Let's hear about what you're doing, or better yet see some pics of it. Even if it's something simple like my Mephy Body Project (see below) post it up! We have several new members and they need to see and hear about the stuff that makes the TOG unique.......

Yes... hacksawing annoying living things could prove to be more therapeutic but it tends to rub the local authorities the wrong way. Plus these are far less messy!!

Nice.. I'm in the process of fixin up a Mephy body I got from I believe outreach... it came in one of those 2 boxes I got from ya'll. It was in bad shape :(, gonna take it over to my buddies machine shop and clean it up one of these days and get it running.

Other than that... my current projects are pretty much my car, as I'm strapped for cash doh.

*Sigh* That poor mephisto heh. It's ok tho, I can't complain for the price I got it with and you got it halfway done. So what are the plans for the Addicted, you gonna sell it or fix it up?

I got a twister and wgp e2 accessories from Medic and pieced together an E2 cocker using different parts from here and there. That's why it call it my "Bastard" cocker, it has SystemX Parts, STO Parts, AKA Parts. It works tho :). I bought a case of Big Ball at the local Gander Mountain and it had a handfull of ball breaks in each bag so unfortunately I can't completely tune my markers until I get off my lazy ass and buy some paint...

Another one of my future projects... dare I say, is to completely AutoCad up a Tribal and see if I can come up with some double trigger frames and maybe even a handfull of bodies. I imagine most of that is just wishfull dreaming, but it would be cool, and I could probably pull off the frame deal.

That reminds me, if I remember correctly, didn't Michael (HB) create some CAD drawings of some tribals. I don't really want to bother him though. BTW what ever happened to Rich? I used to have his cell and I talked to him a few times but that was before I got busy with the military a few years back. I think what we have left is our group here, which is basically Edwin and whoever can come up with products now and then.

Back to watchin southpark, woot!

We need to get then damn Libs to monitor this site, as people with hacksaws should be thrown in jail!!!

I think Hacksaws and Dremels should be banned!!! At a minimum they should be registered so we know what fools are using them!!!

True true... everytime I see it I wanna start working on it so I know how you feel. I have a BBT body tho I don't wanna touch cuz it's in pretty good shape, but I wouldn't feel bad about butchering a Mephisto... it's like they're just asking for it!

I just got back from Dallas earlier in an hour, stopped and got gas too, I averaged about 85mph. I love the fact that these country roads and the old highways in Texas are rarely ever patrolled by highway patrol and sherrif deputies. I only seem to see them whenever I actually drive the speed limit oddly enough.

Well, I have it shooting fine but I need to get and easyout to remove the stripped valve retaining screw. Plus I wanna do a little more hacking & grinding on it. I also just finished fixing an old Defiant.

Hey shifty, does that mean the Tribal collection will be passed down?

I splurged yesterday and ordered a bunch of stuff from Blue and also ordered plenty of stainless screws and grub screws for all my Tribals.

One of these days when I'm not on the road working 5/7 days a week I'll get some work done on these guns sitting around.

I'd also like to report that the 2k7 Chaos boards are VERY nice, even having to program through the trigger.

Thinking of turning it into a 1x retro sleeper..... with one of Edwins chaos board upgrades. Should be quite a shock to hear it ramp up to 15+bps while sporting a stock 1x trigger frame.
Here's a pic: Feedneck, HPR & Gripeframe are already polished... i'll try to get the rest polished as well. The 2 wires coming out the back will connect to a side mounted micro-toggle on/off.

Yeah, leave it like that, and when some AGG kiddie at the field asks you what it is, tell him it's a prototype for the Ego and offer to sell it to him for a "mere" $600. *evil grin*

Good looking chop job, though, way to go.

Now if only someone could make a tubless mod for the tribals to lower the profile!
