HAPPY B- DAY TO ME!!!!!
« on: May 31, 2009, 04:53:49 PM »
yay!!! my wife as wonderful as she always is decided that this year i deserved something that would fall in the "completely unecessary" list that she scales my interests in. well, she actually scouted around and saw me gawking over a QB79 that i always look at at the Archer's sight. And then she actually ordered me one!!! and in the right caliber!!! i can't wait. what she actually ended up ordering is the custom qb79, not the base model. the only thing is that besides the golden touches, and the lack of sights, what is the difference between them? has anyone actually ordered the custom? what do you think of it? another thing also... i would need to get the airsource tanks and the little golden adapter that comes with them? will they fit without the adapter? what does it do??? can i use a paintball tank? what size diameter might fit under the barrel? and as for the qb 79... is it a loud gun compared to my qb 78 .22? i think that is enough questions... the forum is open...

Congrats!!!

A regular 9oz Paintball tank will screw in, but wont fit without pressing up on the barrel. I use the on/off valve that archer sells along with the Airsource to paintball adaptor and crosman airsource cartriges.

The only difference between the 79 and the 79 custom is all the brasswork and the muzzlebreak.

Good luck and have fun!   :D

well, actually Archer Airguns sells the custom versions of the QB 78, 79, 57 and b3-1. They test them before they ship them and they are set up for different uses, as targeting, hunting, etc. I think she got it there. check their site, they got a ton of cool stuff for the qb's...

I got the 79 and she is mint!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Thanks Steve, thanks Cornelia... it shoots amazing!!!! the only thing i see is that it is a very tight under the barrel and i can't screw in the 9 oz. paintball bottle... I got a custom qb79, is that using the same barrel as the standard qb79, diameter wise??? if not, how do i fit it???
