The thing I whould really like to see is tippmann make their guns a little bit shorter, not counting the barrel.

The thing about tippmann making guns that are already "milled" then they wouldnt be custom anymore... It wouldnt get as much comments on them if you can just go to your local shop and buy it...

milling may be to improve preformance and looks but it also has a custom thing about it that turns heads, if they just did that straight from the assembly lines... it would'nt be cool anymore.

1: I was talking about basic milling and internal polishing.
2: Most local shops could care less about a Tippmann and if they did they probably have already seen most mill / mods already. Though there are some unique Tippmanns out and around.
3: Is basic milling was done and the gun also came in a verity of colors, those who just buy a gun because, it looks cool may buy a Tippmann over a spyder, also those who may want a milled or painted Tippmann but, either are scared to or do not have the time to do either may go out and buy one already "done up".

4:A few thins on this comment...
"if they just did that straight from the assembly lines... it wouldn't be cool anymore"

Then how is sending your gun out to someone else cool?
How wouldn't it be cool, it would be better looking and may perform better.
It still would be cool because, there is so much more milling and moding left for you to do.
Tippmann could make it a limited edition Tippmann 98 and or custom pro.
5: When it comes to milling and moding I don't see much of an end since there is so much that hasn't been done to Tippmann 98's custom pro's and a-5's.
