Hello,
I bought a old Tippmann Pro-Lite and I am upgrading it and I was wondering what all I should upgrad on it? I already bought a J&J 14" ceramic barrel. Is there anything else I should buy like a new bolt or springs or anything? Thanks for your time! |

I don't think there are really a lot of upgrades for the Pro-Lite even made. As long as it is chronoing properly, you shouldn't have to replace much.

What he is saying is that accuracy comes from the shooter. "Consistency," that is the ability to repeatedly hit the same spot under the same conditions, comes from the marker. If you are running the stock barrel, upgrading to almost any after-market barrel will increase consistency. (Which it sounds like you have done.) Edited by Mack - 14 February 2010 at 9:09pm |

The Prolite is a lightened version of the Pro/Am. Neither marker outside of swapping the barrel is very upgradable. It is an ancient marker by today's standards, but sturdy. You should still have fun with it.
As far as accuracy goes, make sure you have a good paint-to-bore match and keep the velocity within safety limits. Edited by StormyKnight - 14 February 2010 at 11:54pm |

Do you mean that if it's not chronoing properly that there could be something wrong with the marker, or that it just needs to be toned up/down to be in the range it should be to begin with? |
