PBNation.com.

Don't take the criticism you'll receive on there when you mention "paint" to heart lol.

I'm member Xsport37 in the custom markers forum.

If I understood what you were asking I might be able to help you, in the mean time, please make sure you know which forum sections you post your topics in. This topic had nothing to do with Spudding, moved to NSGRD section.

lol :roll:

But no, seriously - Visit PBnation.com, check out the "Custom markers" and "Voided Warranty" forums in specific. Your idea would be more of a "Voided Warranty" forum thread. Do a search cause they get about 4-5 of your threads a week lol.

PS - it's not the gun, it's the player :roll: I've taken out complete teams with a pump gun in speedball. And of the markers listed, I'd hope your gun can "woop" them as they are all entry level markers.

You could anodize it, but I somehow doubt you have the resources to do this (suitable power source, sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide, suitable dyes).

Chrome plating is always best done by a professional, but it won't be cheap.

There are some nice looking paints around, but they will chip badly.

sell it and get an ego or shocker. but if you must keep it you can cut the back of the top tube off were the bolt is. just find out how far back the rear most oring goes and make sure to cut behind that

Piccys?

You could half block it? (i think that is the right term?) where you cut out the rear part of the upper tube of the body?
