This is an Air Power Vector. It is serial number 32. Lets se what you all think. It was manufactured in the 90's, and has a low enough working pressure that I can put my finger in the chamber and fire, without losing the tip

Because of doubters. Using that low of pressure it won't chop a ball easily, instead the bolt stops. Flick the safety on it, and it resets the action. ------------- Name your poison... |

I think that the grips are styled from Heckler and Koch (sp?)
I am not the original owner, I bought it a month or two ago. ------------- Name your poison... |

It can run CO2, or HPA. It seems to work better with regulated (secondary reg) HPA though. ------------- Name your poison... |

The barrel does come off. That dot on the barrel under the carry handle is a spring loaded button. Push it in, then pull on the barrel.
Rainmaker Good eye. Same designer. It is basically a non-electro Rainmaker.------------- Name your poison... |

Ah yes, the Vector. I've actually played indoors recently where a guys was still using one, and it still worked like a charm. I know, i was on the receiving end, lol. Prior to the Vector, Air Power used to make the Apex Elite, one of the primo pumps of its day. ------------- "We do it until our balls break!"

Thank ya thank ya. It's super loud too, which makes it a little more fun. I also have an Air America Intimidator loudner for it. These have been "clocked" at 130 decibals in a closed room. ------------- Name your poison... |
