Hello,

I haven't been on the forum in awhile, been busy. I just wanted to post and see if anything has come out for the C3 or if there are any mods. Is there something for me to search, or still no info?

Thanks

Nope... I dont see much they could actually make for it. Due to it only running on propane averagring 50,000 shots per tank I dont think they'd make anything to make it more consistant... Barrel's, drops, thats really it....

Yeah but they do need an upgrade for the heat problem, which is it gets too hot.

Mine doesn't get that hot, just a little warm. Of course I don't shoot it constantly, it has time to cool between strings.

A problem I did notice is that after you purge it and then load a ball if you let it sit without shooting a few minutes the mix dies. Then you have to purge again to fire, and run the risk of double loading balls. This is a problem if you are waiting in ambush, then your first shot doesn't go. Also I noticed over the chrono that if you shoot rapidly your velocity will jump up a little higher. The barrel could be easier to clean, maybe it would be nice to have one with a threaded section that removes easier.

Don't get me wrong, if more people I played with played pump, I would buy 2.

IMO, the whole idea of using propane isnt a good idea. but it is pretty cool to get that many shots more per tank.

The stock barrel is great, groups tighter then my regulated A-5 with Boomy.

In my back yard with good paint the C3 will put balls on top of each other at 25 meters.

I agree I'm considering buying one and want to see how accurate they are.

They are quite accurate, and when you think about it they should be when you are using good balls because its an explosion for each shot and thats more consistent then co2 or even hpa

Old video I made when I first got the C-3, I shoot C-3 then A-5 in it.

Unlike most paintball  markers I have shot, the sites on the C-3 do work, line then up and hold it still, and you will be happy with the results.

Same file but 2 different sources for your:

http://media.putfile.com/C-3-then-A-5 or http://files.filefront.com/C_3_then_A_5MPG/;4372394;;/filein fo.html
