Hello, i went to my local paintball shop, and i while i was getting my HPA tanks filled, i decided to make conversation at the register man. I asked him if he knew any feilds, and he said woodsball? and i said no speedball. He said well wut gun do u have, i said a tippmann. He started to laugh and said tippmanns suck, and held up a DM6. He said this will blow any tippmann away. My question is, do you think that he was saying this to buy a better gun, or because its true? thx |

it's both. i have a dealer that did the same exact thing to me the other day. he gave me all this B-S and showed me a catalog with a shocker in it and said its the beast of all paintball guns and how bad tippmanns suck. me and all my friends were appauled.. this guy was like 50. i think it was both him trying to get you to buy his merchendise and his hate for tippmanns.
I will post a video of how fast an accurate my tippmann is. i bet it wont blow me away ill post it tonight. around 1030 in marker gallery LONG LIVE TIPPMANNS! |

yeap NE. I live in Warren.
Not all tippys could hand on the speedball field. mine could, but i dont play speedball. i wouldnt perfer a tippy for speedball anyways. they're too bulky and heavy. if i were playing speedball id want a light compact fast SOB. I play scenerio. Hostage/war situations. |

here's the thing, while many guns may be better than a tippy, a tippy has potential. with an e-bolt, a tippy can keep up with the rest of them (for the most part). also, they are a heckuvalot cheaper. so it depends on where you are trying to go. if you are constantly speedballin, you might want to upgrade, if you are semi-constantly speedballin, you could just ebay an e-bolt.

I do like Tippmann, but I am a realist, I know and accept that there are guns out there that are far better than mine. There is no sense in denying the obvious.

It doesn't matter. A DM will be better than any Tippmann on the speedball field any day. To be honest with you, if what is in your sig is what you have, a DM will blow your marker out of the water. Glazner's, or Gpacker's, or Bruce's 98c's may stand a chance, but yours would not.

It is about sealth in the woods. It is not about stealth in speedball. As for aiming, high-end markers are normally more accurate than low end markers. On an X-Ball field, you Tippmann will not be small enough, or fast enough to keep up with high-end markers. It if were able to compete on that level, everyone would have a Tippmann, and companies would not make high-end guns. Also Marines don't come from West Point. West Point is an Army establisment. Try again.

And stealth has nothing to do with the gun (except, of course, that a DM6 is MUCH quieter than any Tippmann). A good gun won't make you a better player, but that doesn't mean that one gun can't be better than another gun. No, Tippmanns don't suck. But yes, a DM6 is "better" than the vast majority of Tippmanns out there, in most situations. |
