hi chaps help needed with a angel

[gommie404]

if you want to sell it on here you will need to post a proper thread on here with the appropriate pictures.

er yes i know,, thats why i have been trying to find out as much info as poss,, as i still dont know if i would be keeping it or not,,,

i must say its starting to grow on me,,,

but it has a very high level of tech,, that i would not like to get into at a game ect,,

so next question for long tern owners is,, what are they like to live with,,

the only down i have heard so far is that the rotor breach seal comes unstuck,,

any one know any thing else about this a1 they can add

gommie, no offence but why do you use 3 commas to break up a sentence, always wanted to ask you? haha

picky chaps picky,,,
the fact is i have a pc type lap top,, but the key board is set to a MAC layout,,
and i dont know how to set it back,,,

but hey,, it works you can read it,, whats the prob,,,

ok,, im going to be making some trick parts for this,,and im going to start at the barrel first,, i dont like the standard barrel,,
i think its ugly,,,< then again im not the best looker >
so im going to take the biggest barrel back,,bore and ream to take a freak insert,, after that i will work up at the front,,with a bird cage muzzel break,,
just so i can get rid of the barrel join bulge,,, as it wont be using a tip any more,,

so the out come will be a short barrel with freak insets and a tidy muzzel crown,,arrrrr thats nice,,,

after this i will have a look at the profile of the hopper,, i think theres a good few mills to come out of the feed neck,,i may even make a new one,
depanding on what the thread is,,< i so hope its metric,,> any one know,,, or any one know if any other feed neck is the same thread,,

or where i can buy a feed neck in the same thread,, ect ect,,

NPF paintball is probably your best bet as its the home of the Angel. Give them a call as im sure they will help you out.

Ram at the front? The ram in at the back and like an ego ram, the bolt is attached to it via a bolt pin, when it moves forward it opens a valve stem.

If you have magno internals then it was worthwhile replacing the OEM valve stem with the Dlite version.
The gauges set up the HPR and LPR, LPR should be running about 57 to 60 psi but when I ran mine at that I found the velocity was still about 330fps! Took out some thin LPR shims and probably running about 45/50psi but can easily attain a velocity of 280fps and go up and down as needed.
This is running HP tank without minireg shim mod
