i just pulled it apart last night and it has the right poppit now to find parts. kila doesn't make the 4 eyes for theses any more so looks like 7th element laser is the option im gonna take

talk to these guys:

they're really bringing their a-game on customer service, and will give very good quotes. I've been talking with them on a dust-charcoal/ gloss slime green anno job on my ripper 3 and they've been extremely helpful.

I've always liked the milling on the empire 2. Sounds like it'll be a cool project!

I say if you're going to re-anodize it, do something different. I have the very first Empire 2 and it is completely gloss black so nothing would make yours special or different. Go wild and get it done in like a super Polished Copper (like a brand new penny) with some Clear or pewter parts or like a Carolina Blue with dust clear parts. Maybe even solid Rich Yellow (think Pittsburgh Steelers Yellow) with Black Accents and Grip panels. I've seen Hybrid Naked Lady Grip Panels in Black and Yellow to match.

Just some ideas.

finlay got to put air in it and test it while it shot i couldnt get more than a 10 feet with it i tryed 2 tanks and no go then i put a diffrent reg on it and boom it shoots i have come to the conclusion that when noobs take apart a reg the need to check there shim stack

I've bought from pbwarehouse a few times, and they're pretty good. a little more expensive on avg. than other places but their customer service is very very good.

I've bought from pbwarehouse too and their communication is great. I order a barrel that was backordered and one of the CS guys kept in touch and made sure I received it as soon as it was in stock.

I'll throw my hat in for PbWarehouse too. I've bought from them many times and they always get my stuff out really quickly.

pbwarehouse gets my vote. if i don't buy it directly from bob or buy it used, i get it from pbwarehouse. ben is amazing. i bought a feedneck for my gz build, and wanted a color ben didn't have in stock, so he went and bought one for me from a local store.

I think I remember that. I work at the store Ben usually comes to for parts like that. A+ guy, glad he is in the business.

The tournament scene here is really faltering, especially since we're losing fields and businesses to online and renegade (not to mention housing developments) :(
