I think o-rings should NOT be so hard to get and they should be cheaper too. 3.00 for a pack of friggen lower-bolt o-rings???? What the heck? Then you gotta order it off a website and pay shipping, not to mention missing one of the only times you get to enter in a competition. I think they should be readily available everywhere (k-mart walmart, **edited**s sporting goods ect) What do you think? ------------- My review on the JT headshield: http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/?prod=2390&sort=new Tippmann A-5 Remote Flatline RT Car stock

A spot for a product on a shelf cost X amount of dollars per month. If it profits < X per month, your going to have to mail order. ------------- Think and give them all you have from the beginning, and never weaken! |

Buying O-rings in bulk is a good idea. You can never have enough O-rings, and you should change out your O-rings very regularly, even if they only have a small amount of wear. ------------- Founder of the "Forumers Against the Ugly Woman Sigs" also known as FAUWS. |

We know. I don't think you will get a strike. And about the O-Rings, you can get them pretty much anywhere that sells tools. ------------- |

We can get oring packs at fleet farm, our local proshop, wal-mart, as well as sporting goods stores too. I personally bought my tank o-rings from e-bay. 100 for an ungodly low price and no shipping charges. Plus they are a really strong poly urethane. You can find the size of the o-ring and buy them at Home Depot, Menards, Fleet Farm, etc. Paintball guns aren't the only things that need o-rings. Pneamatics need them. Take a gander all over. |

| A guy on ebay sells o-rings by the thousands there like 8 bucks for 1000 so that sounds pretty good to me. |

If youve ever owned a spyder you have to have a special o-ring for the lower bolt, only nobody sells it ------------- My review on the JT headshield: http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/?prod=2390&sort=new Tippmann A-5 Remote Flatline RT Car stock

So don't own a Spyder. Or, if you do, suck it up and find your own parts without complaining. Everyone else seems to manage that. I bet that o-ring is a standard manufactured size anyway. |

And there is the key. I seriously doubt that many, if any at all, paintball o-rings are custom made for paintball use. With some looking you should be able to find any paintball o-ring in a regular o-ring supply shop, at good prices. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |
