The AT (alpha trooper cs18)is the old yellow n-strike version. It's reverse plunger, but the awsome ROF resulting from slam-fire and awsome ergonomics  AR modded it will hit 70 ft angled. I'm pretty sure mine used to do 80 ft, but that was when it was in way better condition.

Then theres the elite alpha trooper cs12 (EAT). its an AT with retaliator guts. very expensive, because it works super well and I dont think it was produced very long. Same with the XDEAT.

mod kits for the EAT do NOT work in the AT, and kits for the AT do not work for the EAT.

I have never heard of anyone modding a N-strike alpha trooper CS18 to be direct plunger, but its probably possible. Yep, you're the closest thing to an Alpha trooper expert! Now Spudliness, HM did a very nice job differentiating between the AT, EAT, and the EXDAT (which he calls a XDEAT which is technically correct but doesn't sound nearly as cool). I also have all three. And I've modded my EXDAT. Pretty soon I'm going to have an extensive collection of all modded Alpha Troopers. I'll get back to you on their performance.
