I have not been to the forums in years However upon re-entering my past love i find a few things diffrent, you cannot any longer buy and sell
I also found this very unwelcomed post BELOW I will debunk each thing on this list. (like this) To the Newbies: There are certain ideas that will get you flamed and ridiculed. These topics are: Paintball Flame-throwers or paint-throwers(best application i have seen is a old fire extinguisher from 1970 that had a screw off top and a bicycle tire nipple to charge it. boiled down old feild paint 25' stream "AWESOME") Paintball Shotguns (Rap4) Rifled barrels(tippmann straight shot, armson, brass J&J Paintball Minigun or chaingun (have you seen the hellhound?) Paintball Missiles(egl-47 rounds, paintball grenades and vortex rockets) Paint-knifes and bayonets (Damage inc pontiac michigan) Silencers and supressors (tasco) and (air america for loudeners) Bullet / Football-shaped paintballs (first strike rounds) Tippmann Pistols (Tpx) THE HELLHOUND IS NOT FOR SALE (Yes it is ) |

For starters, if I got sprayed with a paintball flamethrower, I would be p***ed.
Paintball shotguns - most fields don't allow it. And how would you chrono it? Rifled barrels - their theory is still debatable Paintball minigun - who where actually has a working model of one (besides Tippmann)? Most of the talk are "oh it would be so cool" and other newby comments about them. Paintball Missles - The only one you listed that would actually apply is the mini vortex. Paintball knifes / bayonets - if you get close enough to me to use it, then you deserve to use it. If you try and fail, well, you deserve that too. Silencers and suppressors - one word: illegal (without federal authority) Bullet shaped rounds - the list was posted before the first strike round = needs updating Tippmann pistols - again, the list needs updating And you may be correct on the Hellhound, but can you provide a link or other source where it is for sale? But, all in all, I see what you are trying to say. You get an "E" for effort, bud. Edited by Hubb - 20 June 2010 at 4:48am |

Heres the missle
http://www.tippmannordnance.com/images/ammo-101.jpg Heres the shotgun http://www.allproducts.com/manufacture100/rap/product4.jpg Do you have a rifled barrel? I do when i have trouble with bad paint Thats when i use them. Hellhound is for sale @ hellsurvivors playfeild / exotic sports 10,000 Also the EGL mabe by tippmann can shoot just about anything you can stuff it with such as 30 paintballs in tissue The suppressor is only not allowed in 3 states. I don't want to get modded down so we will leave it at that. |

One thing, The Tippmann Tpx pistol; With the new fixes, this gun is VERY playable. I own one and LOVE it. it is consistent, reliable, feels great and works wonderfully! The Fixes I mentioned are the 7 shot Tru feed mags. They are a straight load, not staggered. this means less pressure on the balls so you can use lower quality paint without breaks. Also they updated the Co2 cap. its now adjustable to all co2 sizes. Now you can puncture any cartridge without problem. Its a great gun and I love it!

awilli, I think you've missed the point, which is, most of this stuff is either illegal (and, yes, silencers are illegal in ALL states without a permit), not allowed at fields, or not practical. With that said, that is probably the reasons the mods don't want us to talk about them.
But there is always the other option: If you don't like the rules here, go somewhere else. |

I accept your opinions without anger or judgment. I put this post here to push a few bully's forwards
you have missed my point, where do we draw the line to others creativity? Silencers = K got that /laws being in place and all- it was part of a post i felt was unjust and limited creativity....there are loopholes. Paintball as i recall, at one point in time was trying to make markers that looked nothing at all like guns. weve strayed far from that path. Don't let someone stifle your enthusiasm. It's not a matter of if something can be done. It is a matter of how much time, effort and money your willing to put into a idea. look at the pinnokio hopper that dude was drilling out egg hoppers at first and melting on pods. Hell the guys on my team are imbedding 5mm fans in there mask and creating all manner of things. such as 2000 round hoppers and up.. I think that close contact in the sport of paintball should be avoided. angers flare and fist fights break out. (not good) also look up FN-303 it's been around for 10 years and suddenly it's rounds are released as first strike rounds. last but not least Why for the love of god would i make a thread titled stirring up trouble if i didn't want to do just that? I'm sure others will blather on after i place what i plan to be the last post in this thread. let them. I'll find something else to put my time into. |

I see you're point, and offer a counter-point. The thread you are trying to defame is intended to get people to stop telling TIPPMANN to make these things. No one is trying to stifle anyone's creativity, take it from me.

But why would you be "stirring up trouble" then back out of it? You wanted the responses and you got them. What gives?

I'm not a bad guy or a a-hole I'm just a gearhead that lives comfortably within his means and likes to make things. most of which start out as tippmann markers. I like tanks, any kind of unique gun, brass, rocket launchers.
I dislike somebody calling anyone a noob, I dislike spawn camping (especially in paintball) Next week we Get to see if my hard work and money pays off, I Play in all modes of fire from pump to 32bps I prefer 15bps cap semi I am a gun hoarder paintball is my church and the teams are my congregation if someone isn't having a good time I'm not having a good time. |

No one called you a noob or anything. Where'd that come from?

But... Dude, like I said before, no one is stifling people's creativity. No one is calling people a n00bz0rz for coming up with ideas. People get a hard time for not searching, and telling Tippmann to produce their "wonderful, original ideas." If you can make something like a bayonet, have at it. I encourage. I myself am a gun hoarder/collector/tinkerer, etc. I've done some stupid stuff and came up with crazy ideas. However, your point is only a tangent to the purpose of the original thread... It's nice (albeit slightly pretentious and a little annoying) that you are trying to play knight in shining armor, but you missed the point of the thread you are commenting on. |
