 Topic: New Tippmann pump gunPosted: 21 September 2005 at 3:40pm |

I went to the TWC this year and Saturday morning the Exotic Sportz trailer had a new Tippmann pump gun on display. It was called the C3. Later it wasn't out anymore and I heard they had to put it away because they weren't supposed to unveil it yet. It's due for release this fall. We talked to some people about it and found out it will be powered by propane. That's right the same propane used in blow torches and backyard grills. They claim 60,000(!) shots from a standard tank. They also said, in response to our suggestion that it could turn your gun into a flame-thrower that the propane is so diluted by the time it is used that there is no way you could ignite it. The only bad side effect is an unpleasant odor. They said they are producing the pump version first because it is easier to manufacture than the semi-auto and they wanted to get it out into the market place as soon as they could to protect their patent rights. A simi-auto version will follow soon.

No need to point out the perfectly obvious, the merely obvious will do.

The C3 did look incredible...
SO SMALL Smaller then the Ion, and looked pretty sweet. I thought it was a custom mod by the Exotic sportz team because the tippmann trailer did'nt have any of them out... But that would explain why they were pulled so early, I was wondering where they went, I was going to buy one possably. Edited by *Stealth* |

Sounds cool.Why design a pump. Why would anyone want it? There are guns shooting over 24bps and Tippmann designs a pump?

I've heard about this. They should have stayed with regular air. I can see propane causing an accident.

It was pretty small. kind of boxy looking, the body was about as wide as it was high(excluding the grip).

Because people (like me) enjoy the challenge of pump. And it's a lot more satisfying eliminating someone. Hearing people rip off strings of paint is boring and they're never more dangerous than a guy who shoots moderately. |

NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil.
