here are some pictures of my camoflage paintjobs on my shielded cps 1200, ss100, waterbottle mine, and max d 2000 and my cps 2500. i HIGHLY suggest the shield mod on guns and ben might want to add it to the reliability mods as all it is is a medium sized tupperware lid with a hole drilled through the lower center. then you remove the nozzle cap and slip on the lid and secure it with duct tape. for nozzle selector guns like the 2700 you could drill a huge fole and slip it over the selector. go ahead and use the pictures below if you add the mod.

now here is the main reason for this thread. i was messing around with my steady stream i found that if you plug the nozzle and pump it three times you can get cps level stream performance so i am goung to add a ball velve with a nozzle. now here is the only problem

how can i get a ball valve on the end of the chamber!!??
here are some arsenal pictures for any webmaster viewing this.

nice job with the camo/paint. Where is the water bottle mine?
the shield is a nice addition/feature.
Are you going to paint any more of your armory? BTW thats a nice armory.

Putty epoxy should work. Cut the nozzle leaving maybe an inch of the nozzle on there. Get some coarse sandpaper and sand that up and the inside of a 1/2 inch male PVC adapter. Mix the epoxy putty and stick it on the nozzle area and then stick the adapter over it. Spread the epoxy putty around so that it sticks to the inside of the adapter. Wait the time it says for the epoxy putty to cure (usually 5 minutes) and test it out.

I never bothered painting camo the water bottle mines, instead, I just dig around at the grass and pile up enough to thoroughly cover them, and it works great. (proven by the fact that I've tripped over my own mines before when rushing out of my base) The camo paint does look very nice, but some of the green spots are a bit bright and don't look "natural". I guess its just part of the style.

What are the guns with the purple round PC and purple reservoir, with the handle looking like part of the reservoir? You have two in the first shot, one in the second.

I'm going to put your shield modification on the website as the "Shield modification." It doesn't really fit under reliability modifications because it doesn't make it more reliable.

I believe you are referring to the CPS 1200, cantab--specifically the 2001 edition of it. It came in different colors that the 2000 edition, as the link should illustrate.

Yes you're right, I found a pic in the mods section of this site. I've never actually seen one IRL. It was the milk carton like handle that struck me about it.
