| best bet, shoot em an email. ask what's up. there could just be a problem with the order, or the mail could be backed up. the longer you wait, the worse the problem could get. |

Lol, sounds like you got ripped off. If you wanted a lighter bolt, you could have just drilled holes in your stock one and accomplished the same thing. |

I wonder how well those things will actually work with a non low pressure Tippmann.
The reason Tippmann bolts weigh so much is because they use the inertia of the bolt to activate the valve. If you lighten that bolt, you can't activate the valve enough and probably can't get the velocity up. And I guess I shouln't mention that these bolts are only offered for low end guns. Makes me think that it's all just a gimmick. ------------- Which falls faster, a lead ball or your IQ after reading some of these posts? http://www.pennstatepaintball.com" rel="nofollow - PSU Paintball |

Your screwed...Sorry. I have heard nothing good at all about them. Many people at the A5OG have tried them with no luck. They simply dont work. They would probably work better as a paperweight.

Alright, I'm here to give you a different opinion. The DH bolts are awesome...at least for me they are. I have one on my Custom Carbine. I used it to help lower my operating pressure. I get no kick, my guns now lighter and quieter, my cycle rate is faster and my gun is now more air efficeint. I did have to use the Madman spring set to raise my velocity back up. But that wasn't a big deal for me. I also have a friend who has one on his Carbine and loves it. And I know someone who has one on his old M98. It took mine about a week and a half to come in. Don't listen to people that have no experience with the product. If you have questions about your order you should contact DH. Any questions just PM me. -------------

| Yea, it came the other day. It took it almost two full weeks but it is here now. It is so much lighter then my stock one and now i dont have to use the useless rear cocking anymore. But I can't try it out for a while because I dont have an end cap. Thanks for all the good comments Tipp-ed Off. I am getting the Madman spring kit with the end cap. Thanks again Tipp-ed Off. |

Well I have thought about buying one, but they are asking too much for one. Total rip off, how does the pro-lite/pro/am hammer $10 cost more than the pro/carbine hammer? The older marker has a large rear bolt, more material. And of course the tippmann hammers are the most expensive. If the a-5 or model 98 really needed a hammer upgrade, Air Tipps would make one. http://www.airtipps.com/hammer.html - http://www.airtipps.com/hammer.html I have one of each for my mini-pro/am-lite and my .68carbine. They are a far better finished product, and have an oversized safety that shortens your trigger pull, wich actually increases your ROF or BPM. ------------- A-5 Intruder, Flatty 68-Carbine Airtipps hammer & RVA Pro/68-Carbine Factory F/A Mini-Pro/Am-Lite Airtipps Hammer Pro/Am "Stock" SL-68II 2xSL-68 Phantom Lapco, J&J for all Secret Splatmaster |

Please refer to my profile for the only question that needs to be asked here now.
This thread was a week old, there was no need to revive it. Please refrain from doing this in the future to keep everyone happy. ------------- Which falls faster, a lead ball or your IQ after reading some of these posts? http://www.pennstatepaintball.com" rel="nofollow - PSU Paintball |
