Sledgehammer LPR conversion for the BM2k

[Wookie]

Has anyone on the board tried this?

How tricky is it to do and how much improvement is there over the standard LPR in terms of consistency and reliability.

Basically, is it worth doing?

Cheers,

Wookie

I remember reading about this a while ago when i briefly had a BM2k, from what was said this mod was first done on the BM a while ago, way before all the impulse, angel and matrix ones.

But it wasn't popular as it didn't make any huge improvement as you can buy custom spring and LPR valve kits from numerous companies (Macdev springs to mind) which improve the stock one no end without defacing the gun.

Have a search around in on paintballcity or pbnation in the Bushmaster sections that where i read about it.. . . hope that helps

Nice one!

Cheers Steve.

I'll do a bit more looking.

Top of the list was a MacDev LPR, but I can get my hands on a Sledgehammer quite easily, so I had a thought "along those lines". Looks like James and Bourke are gonna get a call at some point soon then!

Laters,

Wookie

I have the mod (Vapor FMD) using a Palmer MicroRock. Its one of the best mods you can do. The Rock will take pressures upto 800psi so no more blow solenoids. The mod is a lot higher flow than the std ICD LPR. Consistancy is +-2fps and my opperating pressure is now 180psi and Bolt pressure set at 65-70 psi instead of std 90psi=quiet and smoother operation.

have a look at the Vapor site. If you have any questions just give Sam a ring he's the best
