Pistols? Is Tippmann making pistols? I think that they should. Make a mount for one that fits on the side of a Semi-auto gun you already have made. Dont make a new version of the A-5... Just dont... Make more upgrades relevant to the A-5 and 98. Make a full-auto on the Pro/carbine... Just dont make another semi-auto marker.

.......... I highly dought Tippmann is gonna go and make a high end gun. There not gonna go and try in a new market and waste millions of dollars just for mabe a chance to make alittle money or loose out completly on it if you think about I have yet to see a stock tippmann that looks "flashy" they already have recreational play in the palm of there hand. ------------- 95 base neon 3.0 cai, knifedged crankshaft 60 mill throttle body,14 crane cam crane springs/retainers eagle rods port matched/ polished intake p&p head shaved .015 phantom grip diff dohc exuast |

Tippmann is the master of rec-ball.
The 98c is the best begginner gun I have ever seen. -------------

I think a pistol would be a good idea, all though I don't know how well
they would sell, just because they are pistols. But I bet they
would be pretty cool, I would buy it.

Why Change? Ill tell you why because tippmann needs to expand their market also they will keep that name that you know is rock solid reliable and make some flashy high end guns for cheaper than competitors and advance into the speedball realm that is taking over. they need to make a light gun capable of shooting 20+ bps then ill buy another one of there products but untill then i guess im gonna have to get a timmy. ------------- A5 Egrip Cp Lightning Drop Angel Mini Reg Armson stealth macro line Compressed Air |

Why would they expand their market....Tippmann Pnuematics is not jus in the US, theyre World Wide and jus bout every field uses a Tippmann as a rental and why would they create a marker to shoot more than 20 bps, when they know for a fact that it only takes one ball to take a player out and like what reclusivetorrid stated, theyre the Kings of Rec-ball + woodsball and scenario games. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

I don't know if tippmann is going to be making any new markers any time soon. But Ben Tippmann is making some under his own company. Check out some of his gear.
They kinda look like a combination of the A5 with the 98. If they perform just as well, those have great potential for woodsball players. -------------

| BT i think is a terrible company and is just trying to make money of tippmann's guns, by deforming them, IMO. |

why cant they still have those entry level and scenarion guns and still have a high end marker and rule the industry yeah it only takes on hit to eliminate someone but wouldnt you rather have a better chance at hitting someone with 20 + balls coming at them theres a better chance to hit em than lets say 8-15 bps ------------- A5 Egrip Cp Lightning Drop Angel Mini Reg Armson stealth macro line Compressed Air |

I hate you and everything you stand for. Screw pistols, pistols are a waste of time. Nobody uses them. Why would you mount a pistol on a semi-auto? What otehr upgrades do you suggest for the A-5 and 98? Text messaging? What do you think a good upgrade would be? I bewt you'll have a hell of a hard time thinking, just like Tippmann would. Already was a full-auto carbine kit. I don't care if they ever come out with a new gun, my next marker will be a Classic Automag.. -------------

Yeah, they have rec ball industry covered. And they supply to law enforcement agencies. Ever see a riot vid where they shoot rubber balls or mace balls? More often than not, its a tippman Pro lite. No use in making a high end gun. They arent known for that. It would be like david and goliath. A new guy tryin to get into a business. No one knows them for high end guns. People go to tippmann for gun that will work. Tippmann is like Jeep of the paintball world. If you want a performance car, you go to audi or porche. You want a perfomannce gun that shoots ropes you go to angel or matrix. Not tippmann, i think they are doin fine for their niche in the industry. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/DBibeau855/?chartstyle=myspacecolors">

It's real simple. They just put up a new multi-million dollar facility to continue to build 98's. Sure........... |

The word is that they are droping it soon like a week or so. Some say a new pump, others say an electro...lots of hype going into it. They got rec-ball by its balls...why not dable in speedball? If you dont expand in a fast growing market you will die. Not saying Tippy is going to...just simply saying that its not good business...People to this day say the A-5 is fugly and useless and no one uses them...wonder if they check these boards or know of Tippmann Effect....either way its coming..wait for it. **EDIT** I own a 92' Dodge Dakota and it runs like a beast...dont go starting ish. ------------- Simply better then all the rest... |
