Stirring up trouble......

But...

Dude, like I said before, no one is stifling people's creativity. No one is calling people a n00bz0rz for coming up with ideas. People get a hard time for not searching, and telling Tippmann to produce their "wonderful, original ideas." If you can make something like a bayonet, have at it. I encourage. I myself am a gun hoarder/collector/tinkerer, etc. I've done some stupid stuff and came up with crazy ideas. However, your point is only a tangent to the purpose of the original thread...

It's nice (albeit slightly pretentious and a little annoying) that you are trying to play knight in shining armor, but you missed the point of the thread you are commenting on.

No one called you a noob or anything.  Where'd that come from?

But why would you be "stirring up trouble" then back out of it?  You wanted the responses and you got them.  What gives?

I accept your opinions without anger or judgment. I put this post here to push a few bully's forwards

you have missed my point, where do we draw the line to others creativity?
Silencers = K got that /laws being in place and all- it was part of a post i felt was unjust and limited creativity....there are loopholes.

Paintball as i recall, at one point in time was trying to make markers that looked nothing at all like guns. weve strayed far from that path.

Don't let someone stifle your enthusiasm. It's not a matter of if something can be done. It is a matter of how much time, effort and money your willing to put into a idea.

look at the pinnokio hopper that dude was drilling out egg hoppers at first and melting on pods.
Hell the guys on my team are imbedding 5mm fans in there mask and creating all manner of things.
such as 2000 round hoppers and up..

I think that close contact in the sport of paintball should be avoided. angers flare and fist fights break out. (not good)

also look up FN-303 it's been around for 10 years and suddenly it's rounds are released as first strike rounds.

last but not least Why for the love of god would i make a thread titled stirring up trouble if i didn't want to do just that?

I'm sure others will blather on after i place what i plan to be the last post in this thread. let them. I'll find something else to put my time into.

awilli, I think you've missed the point, which is, most of this stuff is either illegal (and, yes, silencers are illegal in ALL states without a permit), not allowed at fields, or not practical.  With that said, that is probably the reasons the mods don't want us to talk about them.

But there is always the other option:  If you don't like the rules here, go somewhere else.

Heres the missle

Do you have a rifled barrel? I do when i have trouble with bad paint Thats when i use them.

Hellhound is for sale @ hellsurvivors playfeild / exotic sports
10,000

Also the EGL mabe by tippmann can shoot just about anything you can stuff it with such as 30 paintballs in tissue

The suppressor is only not allowed in 3 states. I don't want to get modded down so we will leave it at that.

For starters, if I got sprayed with a paintball flamethrower, I would be p***ed.
Paintball shotguns - most fields don't allow it.  And how would you chrono it?
Rifled barrels - their theory is still debatable
Paintball minigun - who where actually has a working model of one (besides Tippmann)?  Most of the talk are "oh it would be so cool" and other newby comments about them.
Paintball Missles - The only one you listed that would actually apply is the mini vortex.
Paintball knifes / bayonets - if you get close enough to me to use it, then you deserve to use it.  If you try and fail, well, you deserve that too.
Silencers and suppressors - one word: illegal (without federal authority)
Bullet shaped rounds - the list was posted before the first strike round = needs updating
Tippmann pistols - again, the list needs updating

And you may be correct on the Hellhound, but can you provide a link or other source where it is for sale?

But, all in all, I see what you are trying to say.  You get an "E" for effort, bud.
