It certainly looks cool, but it also looks a little awkward to grip. Is that just me or is it a strange grip?

Wilee (is it class of '68). Are you like a master air smith of somethin. Everything we've seen here (including the header for our sniper boards) has a certain perfection to it. All the exact fittings, how long have you worked on it?

Looks real nice. I have been considering making something similar for my sar12 (when/if i get one) for when i want a more classic rifle look

Thanks everybody, I'm real happy the way it turned out. skullcandy - it does look a little awkward, and as I was putting it together I was a little worried about the back of the receiver being right where my thumb would go on a "classic" sniper set-up, but with the trigger so far forward, putting my thumb over the hose and remote plug, it actually feels really nice. chicago - not QUITE that old, but getting there!!! I've been involved in the game since '84 or so, and the mechanical part of the game has always been a big part of it for me. Worked at a couple paintball stores and built or modified everything I could get my hands on. I appreciate the compliment, and am real proud that I could contribute back. This project took me about three weeks once I got all the pieces together.

I'm sorry, AA, but when something as awesome like that is around, it gets me all excited! ^_^

What kinds of things would you be able to do? The accuracy is pretty good so far, but I haven't had the chance to test it at longer ranges. I will be doing that at the beginning of next month when my SAR 12 comes in. I will probably end up firing over 600 FSRs during testing.

Thank you, everybody, for the kind words. I am working on a scope cam and can't wait to get a Hammerhead on it. Vids eventually.

I thought I saw on one forum or another that the old Armsons have rifling that spins opposite the fins on a First Strike. I had thought Armson originally, because the DID have a model with PORTING!!!! C'mon HammerHead... PORTING!!!!

ok..didn`t know that. I haven`t tested the barrel so far because the Hammer7 is not yet available here in Germany. What i can say is that the FSround does rotate while pushed through the barrel. BTW AWESOME WORK DUDE!!

Hi Wilee. I'm thinking of doing the same thing. What stock did you buy? I saw somebody use a remington 700 stock but it doesn't look as nice. Winchester model 70? Thanks in advance.
