My Custom built M16A2
Well a few months back I was feeling motivated to make a Custom Paintball marker. This was my first attempt at this so I decided to use a crapy gun. I used a Brass Eagle Marauder. The marauder itself sucks but after spending hours on end i put an actual M16 Butt, Foregrip, and Clip onto this paintball gun as well as making my own Reciever and Barrel which I bored out to .68 Calaber. I have plenty of tools and metal at my expence so i created all the parts parts that connect the actual M16 pieces to the maurader out of brass. Now here is were the problem lies....
My replica turned out great but the gun i used to make it sucks. i am going to a Senario game in a month in PA (Jim Thorpe Risk tournament) and i want to use this replica so my question is is there any way to make this maurauder
1. Break less balls
2. Shoot Farther
3. Have a faster Fire Rate
Now this gun is a Brass Eagle Maruader and i know they are bottom of the line my Autococker would blow this thing away but my autococker doesnt have as much appeal.
Im open to suggestions!!! if any one could help that,it would be great. Any moding ideas from basic to complex would be greatly appreshiated.

break less balls: kingman antichop bolt.
shoot farther: somehow get a flatline on there
3: faster fire rate: electric trigger.

Hey, thanks for the tips a new bolt was the first thing that I was going to get for it now ive heard if you polish the guts that also will help the performace of the gun. and as far as an E trigger goes, Do they make E triggers that go on a Maurauder?

The flatline barrels out of the question as well. Because I all ready made a custom 21'' Barrel for it that the foregrip mounts to. Ive kind of dug myself in a whole on this one. But it would be nice to make the gun have 3 round burse like a M16A2. How exactly does a E trigger mount to the gun because if I knew this I might beable to make some brass fittings for it with my lathe

What does it screw on to? The Tipmann Frame? I mean is it just 2 holes that the electronic part screws into? (sorry im not familiar with e Triggers, im researching them as we speak)

Its a magazing.. Clips go into a gun. For example, an M1 Garand uses clips. You pull the op rod back so the bolt is in the open position, slam in a clip, and go.
M16's, and most military style rifles use detachable box magazines.
EDIT: Screw e-trigger,s just mod your current one. Find the spring that the trigger returns on, and remove it. Fasten magnets to the trigger (you can get tiny rare earth magnets cheap online).
Install your own set screws (you need a drill, bit, tap, and set screws to fit the tap)

cut about 7 inches off of the barrel. As for rate of fire, shave the sear pin. Make your balls go farther mold your custom barrel into a flatline (upward curve) shape? btw flatlines suck IMO...

so if it stick out of the gun it's a magazine, and if it's hidden within the gun, it's a clip? I finalyl understand! but do pistols use clips or magazines? (cuz theyre' technicalyl inside the gun but sometimes stick out a bit)
The magnet trigger's a good idea since putting an e-tirgger on a brass eagel woudl be very difficult. Somehow the pic is gone wanan post it back up?

FIRST OFF I MAY BE A NOOB TO THIS FORUM BUT DISRESPECT IS VERY UNCALLED FOR.....ESPECIALLY FROM A 15 YEAR OLD PUNK
LET ME TYPE THIS BIGGER SO YOU SEE IT HE SAID HE WOULD POST PICS BEING EX-MILITARY A M16A2 STYLE PAINTBALL GUN IS A PRETTY COOL THING TO SEE. LEARN SOME RESPECT AND TRY TO BE A LITTLE NICER. FROM WHAT I HEAR THIS SPORT IS BANKING ON PEOPLE BEING NICE TO EACH OTHER TO GAIN SOME RESPECT AND YOUR RUINING IT.
