i had ordered the tippmann catalog and noticed that tippmann only makes semi-auto markers now i knew this before but i think tippmann should make a pumpgun my reasons for this are as follows:
1.tippmann should make a pumpgun because some players buy them for spare guns to let friends play when they come over,2. some players buy pumpguns because they want to hone their playing abilities,3. some buy them because they are cheap and don't want to pay much money so i say if tippmann made a pumpgun with the same quality all their other markers have for about $30-$60 they would get more sales and the people with the pumps would be happier.

if your friends came over and they knew how to play, they would probally own a 98c, just like most people.

"hone their playing abilities"  ?????????

lastly, 98c's are,  in my opinion the cheapest, most reliable gun on the market. i dont think they will get more sales because they already make a TON off the current guns.

Tippmann has made pump guns for years: First the SL-68, then the SL-68 II. They were quite expensive for pumps (I think).

Problem is, the mold for the SL-68 II body broke. No more are being made. Search ebay.

Will they make a III? Who knows?

ya tippmann made pumps. they're supposed to be awesome. i do believe that the Tippmann Factory F/A had a full auto mode? am i right? well they kind of make an electro, because they make an E-Grip for the A-5 and an E-Bolt for the 98c.

Yep, they have.

And no, I'm not following you around to disagree with your posts. You just happen to be the last person to post in all the topics I'm reading right now.

This has been a disclaimer to prevent posts insisting that AdmiralSenn is a hateful jerk who has some kind of evil conspiracy in mind to ruin reincarnation14's whole day. This is not the case. Any attempt to insinuate such ideas is categorically false and should be treated as such. Thank you.

Tippmann doesn't make milsim stuff. There's already too many other companies making stuff for them.

rustyspaintballgear.com does a lot of that.

SL series just didn't sell enough to warrant production. So they stopped.

They did make a pump, but Tippmann basically just said give the business to Mike (CCI) and be done with it. To them just wasn't worth the time/cost.

If there will ever be an SL-68 III? Last time I tried bringing that up with the guys, about a year ago, the response was "It will be made, with the chances being slim to none..."
