i've seen a few of these online....i'm curious as to how they work. after i finish my 98c, i think it would be cool to use dual pistols during some games. anyone have any info?

They are a more basic semi automatic/pump rifle marker (IE Angel).  Atleast i believe so, as engine wise.  Dual pistols does sound interesting, in a sort of Counter terrorist type scenario in some office building or something

The desire for polyester is just to powerful.

I wanted one too for the same reason. Now I have been looking at the Phantom pump gun. They are pretty much the same but...good quality.

Blackcat Productions is doing a scenario game in the old Fort Ord housing complex in Cali. they got all kinds of events such as a pistol duel in a house, and 5 and 10 man entry where u enter a certain amount of houses eliminating your foe. I'd go just that i live in PA.

on the Pistol thing Warsensor is coming out with a closed bolt automatic slide pistol(just like the real 9mm) no clue what the price is

Dual pistols....sounds like the All Mighty Nasty Typhoon and come to think bout it, I wouldnt mind owning the Palmer's Squal or the Sydarm.

They don't use an air supply tank like CO2 or High Pressure Air, no hoppers they use little tubes of paint, you can't go semi because you need to pump inbetween balls. That is all I can think of right now.

Not all the pistols are pump skorpion, check out the delta 68,
sheridan sidearm, zeus, and phantom. I've been eyeing the
Zeus g2 also and all I hear are good things. the paintballs are
loaded via magazines (10 ata a time).

Zeus runs off of 12gram co2 cartridges or optional to hook up to
regular co2 tank or hpa. but you have to buy the bottom line
separate......hell you can even buy a hopper adapter and make
a pistol your main ...but why?...lol


Hope it helps.
One shot , one kill .....then pass the dutch for the victory dance!

I've owned both the Zues and the PT Extreme, and in my opinion, they're novelties.

Pistols are fun to play with, mobile, light, and definitely an intimidation factor, but they just don't carry enough amy for a more than one-on-one encounter. Two pistols would help somewhat, but you would still have to take a fair amount of time to reload another ten shots. Also, because of thier short barrels and simplistic design, their range and accuracy are somewhat limited.

For most people, ten rounds just isn't enough to get them through a firefight without getting bunkered.

I have a Zeus G1 as a backup gun, if my 98c fails I'll still have 11 shots left, it is a very reliable gun with good accuracy. It will give me around 22 to 24 shots for each 12gr co2.

I wanted a pistol so i broke down and bought a pt extreme with a holster and bottom line setup. I bought it about 4 months ago and i havent even used it. I just like knowing i have one if i need it. The pt extreme is a semi with open bolt blow back. It loads the balls thru the top in a 10 round tube. Most pistols use 12g co2 cartridges, but mine is setup with a bottom line to be able to use tanks, preferrably small tanks like 4 oz ones. Thats about all the info i have on the pistol I got. Maybe it helped ya, maybe it didnt?
