Nelson valve:
Generic Nelson

Phantom, a type of Nelson


Note for users of our community--a Trracer (old and new) and Phantom are very similar so if you're looking up guides consider that.

The carbon fibre stock changer is pretty cool.

WGP Commando:

Manufacturer: WGP - Worr Game Products
Year: 1987

The Commando was WGP's first attempt at making a pump gun. It was your basic "nel-spot type" gun, but with the same WGP threads that we know of today and removable barrel. The grip frame was made by Pro-Star, and is the same frame found on the Kodiak Pump gun.

The "prize" Commando has your basic NelSpot handle, on a threaded body (WGP threads), a double pinned pump that's thin, knurled and only wraps 3/4 the way around the barrel. What makes it so special? The pump rides on spring-loaded ball bearings, and only 12 to 15 were made, for the Master Blasters.

Sounds similar to the Bob Long MVP only Nelson based.


Super modular. Also, so few of them made that they can trace who's owned a bunch of them:

This Cobra is stamped with the serial of “1 100134” and was traded to Michael “BLUE” Hanse, owner of EMR paintball park by Thad “Weltman” Drum for a Bullpup VM.

How to keep your screws from falling out:

I used to do this to prevent screws from backing out waaaay back in the day. it used to happen all the time on my razorback.....

get a couple of disposable (EMPTY!!!) lighters. remove the flame guard, lever and all that other crap. Unscrew the white regulator tip that sticks up through the lever. it has a little dinky oring on it ( at least most of them do, some designs are different). Pop one of those on each of your screws. It does a fantastic job of keeping them tight without much height at all. When I say tiny, they stretch going over a 10-32 thread and are possibly .020" thick. possibly thinner than that.

step 2... get extras. they don't last overly long, air breaks them down. they are meant for butane.
