Vertical Feed+Sight Rail.....how???

[htumedct098]

aight i just bought a piranha STS 2k3 and it has a vertical feed. I want to try and make it into somewhat of a sniper gun, BUT there is a problem the vertical feed blocks any sight...how would i get around this?? do i buy a tilted sight of some kind??? is there a such thing??

Also...the vertical feed holds the hopper inside, and it doesn't quite fit, i taped a couple times to play once, IS there any kind of adapter or something that can help this?

thanks

If you really want a sight, consider a 'both eyes open' red dot sight.

They don't need a clear line of sight to work - you keep both eyes open - the one looking at the sight sees a red dot and the other eye sees the target, your brain combines the image to display a red dot on your target.

There's a better explanation and a pic here: http://www.automags.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=86262

i think DYE make a hopper insert to widen the neck of the hopper feed tube, making it a better fit. try planet

red dot if your dead set on a sight, however on a paintball gun this is more for looks as not many markers can get ball on ball accuracy

red dot sights work pritty well but it is far easier to sight by watching where the paint is going, which is harder to do if you are looking down a sight.

sounds like you need a hopper insert, most shops will have em for a few quid
