i have a viking that i bought 6 months ago and im loving it im getting ready to start upgrading it and was wondering if there was anyway to find out or to tell what year it was made.... the guy i bought it from got it from aka as a sponser gun and then only used it twice and then sold it to me so he knows absolutly nothing about it it didnt come with a manual or card or anything just the bag and barrell and the aka lube i know it has a Wicked air sports board cause i tore the gun down today and i also need to know exactly where i need to be lubeing the gun at i dont have the manual so i dont know im downlaoding it now but some user imput would be helpful...... it has a dye drop on it and a AIR AMERICA ARMAGEDDON if thats helpful to anyone
Note the area I boxed off. Viking A is a 2003 Viking, Viking B is a 2004 Viking. On Viking A notice how the front of the marker goes straight down, then across (like on a cocker, but on a small scale), then straight down where the LPR/MM goes. On Viking B it is a simple slope (/) from the top of the markers to the straight downward piece where the LPR/MM goes.
Also, on 2003 Vikings the on/off switch is on the back. On 2004 Vikings the on/off switch is on the side.
ok im haveing trouble uploading pics of my viking its says the pics are to large or are not sized right. Anyways my viking has the on/off switch on the back of the marker, does that make it a 2003 then?
If the on/off is on the back then that just means you have a pre-2004 viking, as for lubing it up, put a couple of drops in the air fitting, shoot 10-20 times (take your barrel off to stop oil from building up in it), then put a drop or two behind the ram, its better to put too much then too little, its impossible to ruin your vike with extreme lube unless you put it directly on the board. Then have fun, vikings are incredible guns, too bad I think the annodizer lost mine.

yeah the on/off is on the back of the gun.... and as far as where you were talking about lubeing the gun what air fiting are you talking about? this is my first viking so im stilltrying to get used to it a little thanks... and sorry to hear about your gun i hope they didnt lose it.... how much does it run to have the custom milling and anodizing done on a viking like you had?
You put it into the macroline fitting at the bottom of the sidewinder. I got a email from them today with pics, Final Update from DC (PICS)
should be getting it soon. DC does the standard dc milling for 250.00
