I read an interview online of a member of Tippmann Effect, and he mentioned something about Tippmann releasing a new High-end marker.. He didn't say much about it though... Personally I think it would be kickass if Tippmann released a marker that could compete with timmy's and the like. I was just wondering if anyone else heard anything about this. Thx ~Fear Can't Kill You... but...~ -------------  |

I heard the same thing from probably the same interview. I haven't heard anything else about it as of yet. I agree with you though, a high end Tippy would be cool, I'd get one.

| Well Tippmann already brought the Model 98 Custom Pro to out attention. Go to http://www.countyapintball.com - www.countyapintball.com and it's under the guns. It's under both the Electronic and the Semi-Auto. It's pretty much an upgraded 98c. |

I think they're talking something along the lines of Freestyle-Timmy price range, so that Tippmann Effect has good guns to compete with  .
Anyway...like I was saying, something high class. |

sometimes i feel sorry for tippmann effect... they have to compete verses angels and timmies while their stuck with a 98 custom with an aris trigger job on it with a new barrel, hpa and sometimes they have a drop forward. lol ------------- I BREAK WALMART BLADES!!! i have no gun right now...

I hate to break it to you dude: The workers at Tippmann never read this forum. I don't think the admin does either. -------------

The gun doesn't make the player. A tippmann can compete with cockers, timmies and the like. We have enough high-end, huge waste of cash markers that cost an arm and a leg for an extra 2bps, an eye, and quiet operation. Then you have to spend even more on batteries and a fortune on paint, not to mention other upgrades. By the time your done you could have bought an A5 and milsim'd it beyond compare and had enough money for a tricked out 98c for speedball. I hope tippmann never sells out to the cocker crowd. The day they do is the day I switch over to using armotech markers exclusively. |

Ok I found this out directly from a sales rep... Custom pro basic: pretty much a 98 with a werks barrel and soem upgraded internals custom pro R/t: same as above with a reactive trigger custom pro electronic: sear tripping electronic custom pro I doubt this is accurate and I'm almost sure these aren't the gun's names except for the "custom Pro" part even though I heard it from a sales rep but ya never know... Oh! and the same thing can be found on pbnation with pictures and all. ------------- shootin' a stock A-5

They have no choice on what other markers to use other than Tippmanns only, theyre sponsored by Tippmann, hence the teams name. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

there are 3 new guns in the works by tippmann the custom pro- which is already out(kinda) the pro a-5- a lot like the pro custom then a brand new, unknown gun which will could be a high end gun (like a timmy or a freestyle) or could be a spyder clone |
