Forget about "upgrades" with a phantom! The only "upgrades" that you may want may be a bottomline if you plan on playing C/A (with a co2 tank) and choosing between a gravity feed (like most semi's) or a tube feed (for stock class), both of which cci can do at the factory at a fraction of the cost of having anyone else do it. The Phantom shoots like a dream right out of the box and doesn't need any expensive "upgrades" that other guns do. Anything else you do to a Phantom is probably just cosmetic. : : Thanks for the info guys! Of all the pumps I've seen the phantom seems to be doing best. With perhaps the Sniper being second (or am I wrong on that : ). : : : : Gotin : One thing the Sniper has that the Phantom doesn't is all the non-pneumatic upgrades for the Autococker (like barrels, bolts, spring sets, back blocks, etc). : If you like the idea of stock class, the Phantom can be easily converted. The Phantom is lighter, the Sniper is smoother. : My advice is to try both - they feel so different that you'll probably like one over the other just by feel. : Tom
