I have an XP 310 with a shotgun mod. Would the XPS mod increase output/range/power? It seems easy enough, After poking in the balloons, screw the PCs back on and seal with a little Epoxy. So would this increase my shotgun's power at all?

balloon PC wouldn't, but XPS should. I have no idea what kind of effect XPS has on shot time, though.

You can pretty much ignore the times on that, I rarely ever have Xfire on when I play. I should, though.

It is supposed to make your gun more powerful and make it have a CPS like shot. It should increase power, talk to shadow, he's done it and has had great results.

Well, doing a mod like that to a CPS turns out something like this:

XP guns have smaller internal diameter and won't perform like that.

Well mine already shoots out a decent explosion of water (in a VERY short range), so doing the XPS mod will increase soakage power, and it will be easier to do than that guy's CPS 1200 shotgun. He should K-Mod that CPS 1200 (if not already done)

He invented the K mod. However, he made that mod before he made the K mod. That was XN's old site btw. ^_^ Good stuff.

My friend has a broken CPS 1200 (I think it's the trigger--it pumps fine). Maybe I can borrow it, and fix it and then talk him into doing this crazy mod!

thankfully the 1200 has a good HPL, so you shouldnt have to freeze the check valve.

You wouldn't have too anyway because you don't need to to do the shotgun mod. If might help though.

It was a double post (identical posts). A glitch, if you will.

Actually, the surprising thing is that the two posts were NOT identical! The first post had a comment that wasn't on the 2nd one. :P
