i disagree CIA, i think tippmann will stay with there woodsballish markers. itll probly be something like the a-5 with a removable cyclone and some other cool feature(new front grip maybe?) -------------

true there are so many other companys already making speedball guns why jump into that shark tank when u already have the best woods/rec guns on the maket. i really dont care what it is b/c i cant buy paint and air for my 98c right now. but yes a speedball gun would be cool but i dont think that it will happen this year. ------------- Tippmann for life ~98c ~16in Dye Boomstick ~Pen Spring Mod ~Remote Coil ~6 in 1 belt ~14oz and 20oz Tanks |

| ^^^ Agreed^^^ Breaking into a whole new sector of the market after the company being sold would be risky at best. Especially going head to head with some of the other companies that are out there with a electro speedball gun. Tippmann knows their niche and how to keep it. Look for a evolution or revolution in a woods/senario gun. |

I personally hope Tippmann does NOT come out with a "high-end" marker. It would just be one more of the million similar markers.
Tippmann makes the BEST woodsball, scenario, entry-level (however you want to categorize them) markers and about 80% of the paintball population plays that style. Now, if they could come out with something faster, lighter, etc. and keep the Tippmann reliability and general appearance, I'm all for it. ------------- http://www.EZOfficePool.com - Free NXL and NPPL Office Pools, pw: 'gogged' http://www.CountySports.com/shop/news.php - Newsletter - Coupons |

I honestly don't see why one marker is labeled woods while another is labeled speed? On the internet I'm getting the vibe of a speedball marker being light, fast, and accurate. I mean, don't we all want a marker like that? Why can an Angel/Shocker/Timmy not be used in the woods? Now I know this doesn't have to do with the new Tippmann coming out which im very anxious about, but some people have posted "why bother making a speedball gun" and stuff like that. Anyways I think a scenario gun would be excellent for Tippmann to make, they have the rep of having fabulous recreational markers, why not expand into differnt areas of paintball? They might succedd they might not. But I guess we'll all see what Tippmann has up their sleeves March 1st. ------------- WHOEVER *reb* IS WHY WOULD YOU THINK I HAVE AN OVERSIZED SIG!?!?!!

^^^^
Speedball and Woodsball guns are designed for different types of play Predator. TAke for example those companies you mentioned above after a hard day in the woods paintballing they would need major maintenence but a tippy wouldn't/ Now for a tippy on a speedballing course. There is not as fast rate of fire and they tend to be heavier which is bad for running. Also notice that you can UPGRADE to electronic systems if you want, unlike speedballing guns. I doubt tippmann would release a new gun right now because the A-5 is still selling well. If they were to release anything it would be and upgrade, in my opinion. If they have a new gun and they are planning to release it great, I'm in store for a new gun to buy. If not, my a-5 gets 300 dollars in upgrades. |

^ me too, but if they did make a speedball marker then they would
possibly plz the other 20%. all tippmann buyers with 98s and A5s who
upgrade to speedball guns will buy it. what they should do is
come out with a speed and woods gun. woods ballers=happy speedballers=happy |

Yes, Too bad thats nearly impossible. Woods and speed are so different a marker that pleases both would be very hard and expensive to build. Since most of the people that buy tippmanns are new players they aren't looking for something expensive to play with, just something that will get them through the game and isnt going to break when they drop it.
Most tourny guys won't pick up anything that has the Tippmann name on it anyway. They consider them "noob guns" and insufficient for speedball play. Lets face it, Tippmann is right where it should be, in the woods, creating low cost markers that are durable. ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

Sorry to disappoint ya, my man, but Speedballers are still a destinct minority in the sport of paintball. Recballers and Woodsballers and Scenarioballers got 'em beat. More money is spent in paintball in the rec/woods side of the game by a mile. It's probably more like 70/30 or 60/40 at this point... ------------- Take the Power back!

Won't happen... The E-bolt is a great upgrade, but the costs outweigh the increase in performance. If Tippmann were to make a new E-Bolt based marker, they'd need to start from the ground up with a new design... The Valve would ahve to change as well, since the E-bolt upgrade doesn't stop the valve from releasing Blow-Back gas, which is a complete waste with the E-bolt. I'd love to see a High-End peice of hardware with electro-pnuematic rams and 30cps capability... I'd buy it based on the Tippmann name alone. ------------- Take the Power back!

It's real. It's a scan of the new Tippmann Catalog that was available at the Shot Show in Vegas... Same images has made the rounds on the A5OG recently as well.

The idea here is not something completely new, it's rather a counterpoint to the Metric Ton of "el-cheap-o" sear tripper spyders and spyder clones out there... It's meant to complete with those markers alone. Tippmann supposedly has thee upcoming releases (based on several sources, not the least of which is W.A.S.) that will contain the new WAS Equalizer board... This is ONE of them. The board is also going to replace the E-Grip borad. That leaves two "upcoming" markers yet to go... ------------- Take the Power back!

^ dude... look at the .68 Carbine... how much diffrent is that compared to a Pro/Carbine? There about the same damn thing... except the little diffrences... Such as this new tippmann... its just like a 98c with little bit of diffrences. -------------

Look at the 68 Carbine, the Pro-Am, the Pro-Lite, the Factory F/A, and the Pro Carbine... They all are almost identical markers, they all have exactly the same recievers, they all look exactly the same (with the exception of the star fire feeder on the Factory F/A). This is not the first time Tippmann has reused a reciever style used in a previous marker. -------------

If it is based off the 98c I wish they could find a way to not use the clamshell design. ------------- "Here are beauties which pierce like swords or burn like cold iron." -C.S. Lewis |

^^^I heard the rumor but no idea if its true,
The Pro custom doesn't look that bad and frankly i didn't expect tippmann to work too hard at changing a flourishing design. I might have to pick it up if the money comes together. |
