Incredibly long story short:

Im sitting in the middle of the desert in the middle east. When I get back to the states I will be able to start playing ball again. When that time comes I will have some problems.

Of all of my markers (99 angel LED, five autocockers, a phantom, and the trusty old tippmann that only see's play in the woods...) the only marker im not really familiar with the internals is my Angel. I want to get it up and running but dont know the condition. Without having more information I was just wondering what thoughts anyone might have as to what I'll have to do to get her cleaned out and up and running. I was thinking about sending it into the good guys at fixmyangel.com for a complete overhaul. Any thoughts, ideas, comments, or suggestions?

The LED has been sitting dormant in storage for about three years, no temperature extremes, perhaps it got a little warm sometimes but never cold. Im paranoid im going to remove the battery and find a leak or corrosion of some kind.

PS/Edit: Some people's first thoughts are, hey, buy a new Angel. Wich I probably will do anyways, there's just something to be said for my first Angel LED, ya know.

hey brotha i feel ya on all of that. Have her sent to Bob or Ken. Bobs done a wonderful job of making sure Ive been taken care of over here in Korea with fresh supplys in the mail and quick turnaround service. You cant beat the service we Angel Owners get man.

Stay safe

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply. I've been thinking about it a lot and looking around the website, I might just have to get in touch with them and let em work their magic.

On a side note, we may meet on the field some day. I am heading to Japan (Okinawa) shortly after my return stateside. My job may take me into your area every now and then, who knows!

On a second side note, great avatar, it's cause he's the captain!
