i dont think the newer people here realize this gun's potential. it was brass eagle's one and only attempt into the high end market, and for a low cost marker, they did a great job. not to mention, its electro pneumatic, not just a cheap sear tripper.

these are pics of the SAME GUN, just modded a little:

yes, that is an ANGELS trigger frame...

id wager an upped rainmaker against an upped tippy or an ion. as a matter of fact, that would make an interesting showdown...

yeah, but i think that adds to intimidation on the speedball field. nothing like an angel framed, 25+ bps brass eagle machine gun going off in your face!

edit: yeah, mines a early 99. the double trigger came out late 99. its not that much older.

brass eagle and k2 completely bought wgp. i dont know if they messed with the carny at all, so it IS a good gun, but its technically a brass eagle karni.

Awesome gun. I havent seen one of those in quite awhile. Should be a formidable gun on the speedball field.
