FINALLY!!!1!

I've been wanting to get one of these things since forever. So I see someone selling a brand new (this guy bought it new and never used it) Pro/Carb. Naturally, I checked the price.

$75.

I pounced on that like an Ethiopian that found a donut. Only thing it's missing is the SS hose and ASA.

And now for the best thing to ever come out of a Tippmann factory:



Expect the most amazing Pro/Carb to have ever existed. Snake, I challenge you.

Nice find. If you need the stock ASA let me know. I might be able to find mine the next time I go home. I would also suggest checking out the PCOG for parts and upgrades. Good luck finding any type of upgrades for it, Mike doesn't even sell anything for them still. I have always wanted to an E-Bolted one, thats what you should do.

Sweet buy.  I almost bought one but when the cockers went under 50 at action village I had to pounce on that,  Maybe one day I will grab me one of these.
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

See my thread, n00b.


Haha, didn't notice it after it fell off the first page.

But really, glad to see you back.  I myself am working on finally getting that SL done from way back, it might be time to revive the versus thread soon .  The past couple of days I have been laying down some coats of primer, and I still don't know what I'm going to do for the final paint job...

I have the 68 carbine.  bought it after i realized my first gun P68 (like a PGP with longer barrel and more paint) from sheriden would not hold up well with only 15 balls lol Really like it got it back in 1998.  Trying to upgrade it a bit.  Some one mentioned e grip can these go on the 68 also? let me know what you find still available

P68. Nice gun. I had a PMI-II (similar to P68, but constant air), but brass just wasn't my thing.

And as for the "e-grip," it's actually an E-Bolt, which is distinctively different. The E-Grip uses a "flapper" solenoid to trip a mechanical sear. The E-Bolt uses a pneumatic solenoid to activate an internal pneumatic ram, which strikes the valve, converting a mechanical or electromechanical to a "high-end" electropneumatic. There never was a kit made for the Carbine series, but with some modification, anything can fit. :)

And if you're interested in an E-Bolt, get out a lot of money (around $150-200) and head to eBay. Tippmann stopped making them a few years back.
