I don't mind the slow rof, or the wheezing sound of the reg. I play pump more often than not, and the fastest shooting gun I have is prolly a VM. The only thing I truly like about playing semi is being able to pop off a couple of "back up" shots to bracket somebody without having to upset my aim.
I really considered wood stocking it some time back. Like I said, I was going to drill/tap the bottom of the body for barbs and run tubes to a cocker 4 way. But I saw that wasn't going to work when Pun said the valve handles ~300 psi...
That's interesting about the inventer vs legal dept. I'll have to do some measuring....I'd always wanted to find a cross section pic of an Equalizer, but as they were none too popular, I haven't seen one....
