OMG, it's beautiful. Damn Chicago, again you betray me. I thought you were going to call it the "avenging angel?" Bastard, what happened?
Did casper really paint that for you. I guess that was kinda the look you were trying to convey all this time.
Can I touch it? It looks so big and hard!

Things I get are always very light or they don't go on the markers I get. 3.5 lbs for the receiver as you know, 2.1 pounds for the the targeting system. (4 ounce Leupold, plus scope, HHA optimizer and rails). I didn't purchase the the front shroud, the euro grip, or the car stock but, I'd estimate another 3.4 pounds (and I think that's way high). still got another pound on the way (bipod plus magpul vertical foregrip on the way) - but, that should do it, so, even if you want to count the three point shoulder strap, I'm under 10 pounds (may be under 9) fully loaded.

I was just thinking, many of you might not go to Trinity's blog. I can't say why someone won't but, I assume its just one more place to go and possibly contract another virus. I've never had any problems; but, the gynophobes here sure have their list a fears!
This is a long way of saying, I'm going to post up here one of Trinity's video productions. Let me know bud if you'd rather just keep this on your blog. If so, I'll delete it as soon as you contact me. But, for now, without further ado, an important video:

Thanks for reposting it. It's something I meant to do and just forgot. Hope it helps.

This is what many of you have been waiting for (especially you Chicago). An SR1 autococker barrel adapter. I haven't begun to test these yet but I have to say they look beautiful. This is the description from Bill: This is an SR1 adapter the lets you put cocker barrels on your rifle.
It negates the use of shell sizers altogether. I will look at an adapter later that will utilize the shell sizers.
With this adapter you will loose the use of the 2 piece foregrips unless your barrel diameter is 1"
Free floating foregrips will still work.
These will be $20 shipped.
They will be anodized and available for shipping next week.

This is wonderful news. Kinda negates the stuff I was working on. But glad to see it come out. I'm too old to be making special parts anymore. I can't even remember where I left my caliber. Or, for that matter, what a caliber is.
Keep on rocking CCM. And Trinity, you deserve a gold hogs tooth for this one!

[chicago's posse here:
We lost Chicago...no the old man didn't die (at least we don't think so). He got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, and that's the last we've seen of him.
It's the weekend, so he might have gone to a paintball field early this morning to check out his SR1. At least that's what we hope. So, we'd just like to place a "silver" alert (yes, like the color of first strikes!) If anyone sees or comes into contact with Chicago, please contact his posse. Do not try to apprehend. We will come and get him. Just pm us your location.

like 28 out right now, that's right, I closed the temp app and it toook my entire post with it! Boy, a lot of work just pissed away.
I was posting an entire page on what happened to me in the quest to put HPA on the SR1. And lost it all at the end when I went to justify why I would not be chronoing even on HPA today. TOO COLD. So, obviously we all just lost a great erotic story about her nipple and leaks and how I had to **** her and all; but, the worst was the end when I needed to go through the garbage to find the old Co2; cause your SR1 will still leak if you don't have an empty cartridge in there!
Damn it! Better post this now before I lose this too!
edit: just realized when I read this myself (its called proofing so I think you are supposed to do it with a fifth of vodka), you can't describe the action of a single bolt eject and reload (c*cking the marker!) Boy, I bet the gynophobes love this one! And, hate the marker - too much cocking for them!

Looks real nice^^ Question about the Optimizer for when the strip for crono ~280 is equipped. Can you turn the wheel past the 80 yard mark? If so then, how much further can you turn it? (easiest to understand is pobably if you say it in %, example, when you reach 80 you have turned the wheel about 50% of its capability.

I haven't done that yet. But, if you asking is there a limit, a stop point, yes - I've turned the Optimizer in both directions and there are definite stops. Since at my quick glance, there is only one of each tape; I've wanted to wait to the last to apply the correct one (that is, everything else tuned and working properly with the best rifled barrel configuration I can find (14 or 16 inch I don't know yet) and then I'll apply the tape. Sorry I couldn't help more. But, one thing you will get from me when it comes to paintball is honesty. So, if I don't know something, I'm not going to make it up. Unfortunately, i can't spend 100% of my time on paintball. So, it is taking me sometime to get all the info out there. Oh, I got my 8cc HPA configured with a Ninja 3000 reg (removed the red rings before filling it so output should be around 450-500 psi) and mounted on the SR1. Pictures later. This SR1 is tricky in one since; y ou can vent an entire 8cc of air in less than a second if its not cocked! So, to everyone else, still no chrono with the Hammerhead 14 inch Dominator Barrel! I might get back over to a paintball store today and see if they'll fill with "bottle on gun."

Nice info as always, If you bring that gun in for a fill I think they should fill it for free
