Well I've allready grown quite tired of my XM so I'm decking it out with some new stuff because of all the money I've recentley gained from robbing the liquor... wait I mean uh takeing out the garbage yes thats it! Allright that was stupid anyway I need to know a few answers some of you might know. Here goes: 1- I have an EG700 Motor, V2 Gear box and a 350 FPS upgrade. What kind of battery do I need? It takes a mini stock. 2- Does anyone know where I can get a custom CAR-15 barrel like the one they have on the CAR 15-9mm at www.airsofextreme.com ? 3- I found some 30$ tac boots I like at Dunhams... Viking should I go for them? I dont remember what they are called but they are black and waterproff, need I say more? Thats all for now. Thanks for the help.

I believe those are the ones I have. All I remember is they looked tactical and cost around 30 bucks. Anything would be better then your “tactical skate shoes” when trying to look the part. I say get them, mine are holding up well and go great with my camo.

I have seen a short barrel conversion kit on Wargamers. I don't know if it's just for the M4, but you should check it out. Also, if you make yourself a custom battery (out of rechargable AA's) you can fit a lot of batteries in the foregrip of the XM. This will increase your potential to have upgrades.

well, if you want to go the battery route...
i know a store where you can get 1100mah AA nicads for 3 bucks apiece.
NiCads don't have the capacity of NiMh's. NiMh's require a different charger, though...because they have a different way of charging.
personnally...when i get around to ordering my battery...i'll be going the NiMh route...
i know another store where you can get NiMh AA 1600's for 3 apiece, as well.
then all you need is to lay them out in your gun, get a shape...then solder them together and wrap them... (either in some heatshrink or in electrical tape.)
add a connector... Radio shack has them for 1.50 last i checked....
and you're set...
the mini's and AK sticks use 1/2 Sub C cells....i can get 1300mah NiCads of this type for around 4.25 each.

Wow I'm such a dumbass. I spray painted all the orange on my guns today. The MP5 looks ok the sig looks retarded and the XM, well lets just leave it alone. I'm going to get some paint thinner tomorrow hopefully it will take the spray paint and the orange off. GRRRR...

You spray-painted it... hehehe... just make sure you check the inside of the inner barrel, don’t want the least bit of paint in there... the horror!

NOTE THIS ONE AND ALL!! THE XM177-E2 IS NO MORE! AS OF THIS WEEKEND IT WILL BE A FULLY CONVERTED COLT COMMANDO! (YES! The Colt Commando is a real gun ) I will purchase the inner and outer barrel tomorrow. Sportsmans guide has also told me that my AR15 Scope and Bipod should be here tomorrow. For those of you who dont know what I'm talking about its basically a more up to date CAR-15 like those carried by Delta in BHD.
