I am almost certain it was the pistol. But apparently they weren't going to unveil at WC anyways.

I think it's interesting that pics of the pistol are posted on several other sites like A7og, A5og, Pb Tech, Milsim Empire, but here on the TIPPMANN site, they are still forbidden. You would think they would counteract the posting of a stolen prototype and release some nice, professionally done pics along with full specs etc.

.02 cents.

The stolen pistol looks like it fires grenades or something. Too chunky IMHO.

I prefer twist off.  The lever ones never stay adjusted correctly and while I like the Tiberius pistols, an in-gun CO2 works better for my purposes.

 It's still there. Go to General Paintball discussion forum and there is a thread devoted to it.

According to the A5og, they were given permission to put the pics back up after discussions regarding the bag and the cat no longer being in it.

So, this thread being a pretty long sort of "oh my god, I can't wait any longer" thread, my new "Please Tippmann, change this and that" thread will go in Paintball Ideas

Just got an email from tippmann with pictures of it inside.

I assume it's all good to post then?



Note that this is still a prototype.

Launch has been delayed for a few months too.

Yeah, I was holding off posting, wasnt sure if it was kosher.

Looks really neat though. I wonder how field stripping will go. Still interested in the internals too.
