I got rid of the TS and followed Echo's painting guide (which was well written by the way), And here are my results. I which it was more green looking, but I'll get over it. Also, sorry for the horrid Phone pictures, thats all I have for a camera.

Edit: Wow, those pictures SUCK.

Looks pretty good. If you want more green, Put another layer on top. A paintjob is never done. Also, What are you running internally?

I was thing about it, but Im going to use it as is for now, ad if i feel the dire need ill add more.

for the insides:
PDI: Spring guide, trigger & piston sears, 250% SPR spring, HD piston, FireFly bucking and a KM HEAD barrel. As well as the normal DIY stuff. Shoots very nice. I get about 250ft of range.

Looks nice, What is the inner diameter of that KM head barrel? And what is the legnth? I was looking into one of these but didnt know if it was worth picking up. THere are two KM head barrels, One that is teflon coated and one that is stainless.

Also, with the PDI HD piston, You're losing alot of compression. If you get the raven cylinder set, the piston will fit alot more snug into the cylinder.

Pretty sure it a 6.03, and i bought it a 430mm, then cut it down to a 303mm, which wasn't that hard.

Really? Weird. If I have a 100% compression on the cylinder. huh. I would, but u just bout a new side arm. Damn xD

oops. Yes it is. If you do get the Teflon one, I dont think cutting it would be a good idea. xD

For the $50 I paid for it, I get great groupings at 100'. I have yet to actually measure them though...

I be back in a bit, Im going to go shoot some 8.5x11!

Test results at this time are... N/A.

Too windy to actually get good results. Along with the fact that in the first five rounds my piston end came unscrewed inside the cylinder... :
