My new marker...

Long story short, I found myself on top of one hell of a deal.

I posted on TorontoPaintball in the WantToBuy threads, saying I've got $400 for a Tiberius 9, with all standard accessories, 3 extra magazines, thigh holster, and 3-magazine pouch.

Half-hour later the phone rings...  Seller lives and hour away.  I hopped in my car, took the T-9 for a test drive, and handed over the cash.  He had everything I asked for, and more (the T-9 "elite" package excluding bipod).  So, here's what you're all waiting for (unfortunately from my crappy webcam...)





The T-9 in it's case, with muzzle break, magazine and mock-supressor.





The T-9 next to my A-5, with the constant air adapter.  No hopper yet.




I read many reviews on this marker before jumping into this, and there was not a word of a lie in any of them.  This gun can match the A-5 featured above, only it can do it stock, using 12 grams.  It is the most freakishly accurate marker I have ever fired.  It also has a very distinct sound, and the trigger pull is perfect.  The fact that this will never be anything but stock mechanical is next to no loss after you feel the light pull.  (It's slightly heavier than my e-grip).

Not long ago I was contemplating where I could go from my A-5, and I decided that the only thing I would settle for would me an Automag, but after reading reviews on the T-9 I was sold.  After a short bit of research, I realized that the T-9 essentially was built just like an automag in just about every respect, and really, when you picture an automag and the parts that are functional, you essentially get something that looks like a pistol.

Long story short, I love this thing.  I am very happy with it, only problem is the constant air adapter doesn't fit normal remote hoses, so I need to get my hands on a lathe or something.

If anyone is looking into this marker and has any questions, I'd be happy to answer :)

nice find.  Have fun with that.  I always wanted one for just going pistolling but they are too expensive for my blood.

i dont think ill ever buy one new, but i heard good news about them tho, but i kinda got my eyes set on a .43 pistol tho :)

how does it work for you, any good for a primary?

Looks good. T9s are crazy fun guns to play with.

i like the case, how it has cut out stuff to hold the gun like a glove

It did, but I have no use for it, it's literally only cosmetic.  I have no use for the extra rails etc as well, and I will likely never play with that fake suppressor attached. 

If I don't use it 100% as my sidearm it will be used as a low-profile marker.

Tiberius is planning to release a barrel kit for it soon so keep your eyes open for that

Did you get it with 4 magazines, a holster, and a 3-mag pouch?

Anyone who would sell that for $250 is crazy.


I played for the first time with it yesterday, it's amazing.  My only problem is my play style generally requires a decent rate of fire because I'm an "in your face" player.  Having only 8 shots is a huge limitation, and until I get a hopper adapter from my friend, I will likely never use this as my primary weapon unless I have my sights and stock attached. 

3 hours worth of paintball and I fired a grand total of 80 rounds, with 7 kills, 5 of which were headshots.  Only 2 games I even fired more than my first 8 round magazine.  It was fun as hell :D

Hi yeah i have a few questions that you could help me on with the t9 as i own 1, i find the accuracy is verry bad on this thing i have used it a few times and its chroned between 270 and 280 fps and when i shoot the paintballs fly out about 30 feet then dip off right or left and even straight down, am io doing anything wrong or is it the paintballs i have been using?

alas i did not get 4 mags a pouch or a holster, i will hang my head in shame

As far as the accuracy goes northblade. It's most likely your paintballs. The bore of the stock barrel is rather large so i find it doesn't handle smaller balls as well. Also make sure you have both detents installed.

might have to pistol whip some one
