Heres some pics for anyone interested in the guts of this thing. Sorry I was an idiot and didnt take pictures of the actual guts guts... http://www.takiweb.com/~killtippy/shi/c3/c3_1.jpg - http://www.takiweb.com/~killtippy/shi/c3/c3_1.jpg - KInda trying to show how it fits in your hand.

The back end is rough, but the actual bore of the barrel is very very smooth. You can also see the not-quite-adequete anti double feed. http://www.takiweb.com/~killtippy/shi/c3/c3_4.jpg - http://www.takiweb.com/~killtippy/shi/c3/c3_4.jpg - The fuel injector valve, manual says its one of the main things to keep clean of gunk. http://www.takiweb.com/~killtippy/shi/c3/c3_5.jpg - http://www.takiweb.com/~killtippy/shi/c3/c3_5.jpg - After opening the halves. http://www.takiweb.com/~killtippy/shi/c3/c3_6.jpg - http://www.takiweb.com/~killtippy/shi/c3/c3_6.jpg - Its pretty idiot-proof. All the actual guts of the thing are locked up in the practically bulletproof chamber. The chamber is solid milled aluminum, very well made.

Even though I don't like the idea of propane usage for a paintball marker, the combustion is so fast, there's little to no time for the aluminum to get hot enough to release any gas. Even at high rates of fire (remember this is a pump), I very seriously doubt it'd get that hot, extremely warm, yes, hot NO. They'd never be allowed to market it, if it did. Even my spudguns, which have a lot bigger combustion than the C3, barely get warm to the touch. It's barely enough to burn a potato. It singes plastic bags (I use these for testing), but that's about it. ------------- http://www.thelloydsonline.com/paintball - SPUDCRAZY http://www.oldmanmilitia.com">

I personally have no desire to get this gun. I think it'd be cool that you'll get more shots per tank with the Propane, but the size and look of the gun throws me off. I'm actually getting ahn SL-68 II at the moment. Can't wait, and I'll get pics posted when I get it. Custom Painted and Modded by Tigman. Great guy. Sorry I haven't been around as much guys.

I believe the combustion fires a piston, which in turn pushes the ball. I could be wrong . Do a search, there has been a lengthy discussion and educational session on the workings of the C3.

heh heh... Children. Ask yourself, How does a Car Start? dur-dur-dur! SPARK PLUGS. Thats basically why the C3 has Electronics, to kind of.... "Ignite" the Energy that will be needed to propell the paintball. I'm really suprised Tippmann didn't do this Earlier. The Design of this marker is pretty basic, and a 16.4oz Propane tank weighs about the same weight as 9oz. C02 tank except you get 10,000x more shots. -------------

My little to do list: The pump is LOUD. Since the pump handle is hollow, it makes a really loud CLACK sound when you pump. Gonna look into filling it with foam or something. The link from the pump handle to the bolt is a little loose, and it rattles and makes noise. Gonna see if I can work out a way to silence it. Yes, it is electronic. My first electro gun is a pump. Take that, speedballer kids. -------------

I'm hoping to go back to my Roots(woodsball(things so much simpler back then, heh.. when 250 paintballs would last me for hours)) Hopefully I'll have a good enough time with a C3 I wont wan't to go back to a Semi. -------------

Hey there,
New C-3 came yesterday Before it left the box it got the nickname of Zippo. Comments were bantered about, wondering if we could hook it up to our Grill tank and shoot it all year, or if it would work on MAPP Gas (it does but it's dirty). Went out to the shop and took the tank off of my torch and filled it with paint and took it outside. 1. LOUD 2. Works Nice 3. Velocity wandered from 275-375, Not happy about this! 4. Smells like propane grill. 5. Shoots better groups than the stock A-5 Fun toy to tinker with but I'd rather shoot my Custom Pro -------------

Im already working on a bolt-on rail. Anyway I just hauled the thing outside and shot it. Its definately interesting. Sounds like a .22, not at all the sound of any other paintgun. Its got more of a firearm rifle crack sound to it. Really cool. I dont have a very big yard, but I was easily stacking the balls on the same spot at about 50 feet. The plastic barrel doesnt seem to be a problem or anything. DEFINATELY smells like a grill after firing a few shots. Personally I thought it was really cool. Makes you think of steak and burgers. I didnt notice it getting too hot, but I wasnt firing too fast. The back of the grip where the web of your thumb sits got warm, but it wasnt hot by any means. I gotta tweak the reg a bit more then go out and really go to town on it. Ill try to get some video for you. Oh and in case youre curious, I paid a whopping $2.17 for a propane tank at Target. -------------

Enos, how does it "meter" the amount of Propane for the next shot? how long can you leave it cocked with a gas charge in it and it still fire? this would have to be affected by ball-barrel match, unless the propane charge does not contact the ball until fired. is that little wire thing the detent?? dang i would like one of these things but as stated earlier $230 is alot for something to play arround with! thanks for the pics and description, get that vid up!!!! ------------- http://img76.imageshack.us/my.php?image=stickemup6of.jpg">

Its pretty clever. The propane is regulated, then it goes into the little brass valve under the barrel. When you pump it, the valve opens the gas source and closes off the LP hose to the back of the gun. Then when you pump back and the valve closes, the volume of propane inside the brass valve is all that is used for the shot. As you pump back forward the big plunger mixes the propane and air. Its not in contact with the ball at all. Theres a piston in the rear with a big huge spring that gets forced back by the combustion, and exposes the port to the bolt. Heres a pic of the actual guts of the thing:  -------------

so lets see if i am getting this, the propane is metered by how much will fit between the 2 spools on the brass valve, then when you pump ahead it is channeled in front of the piston with 2 o-rings wich pushes it through the black thingy wich mixes the gas with air? pretty simple really. thanks again Enos ------------- http://img76.imageshack.us/my.php?image=stickemup6of.jpg">

that wouldn't be a good idea because the volume that the valve allows in is set for propane, use any other type of flamable gas and you would be asking for trouble!

Actually, it isn't that big. It is only a little taller than my cocker, and is quite a bit shorter than the cocker. It just has a very hefty feeling. With a mini-tank and mini hopper it would be a very compact gun. BTW - I was just talking to the manager of a field who is contemplating replacing his rental PGPs with C3s for their indoor pump game. He did the math on CO2 savings, and the C3 easily won out. And, of course, the C3 is much easier to operate than a PGP. Any place that still runs pump-only games would have to take this seriously as a rental. Which, of course, goes to the main point - if Tippmann can turn out a semi, it will instantly become the rental gun of choice EVERYWHERE. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |

Ventilation shouldn't be a problem. Any indoor arenas need to be fitted with proper ventilation in order for it to legally accomodate large groups of people. Carbon Monoxide wouldn't have time to build up with constant ventilation running. I don't remember the exact building code specifications, but I worked for a guy over the summer who was mentioning something about ventilation regulations for the school I was employed for. Of course, different states have different laws, but I think all of them should be adequite enough to accomodate the use of propane as a propellant. ------------- ? |

From monkeying around with mine, I'm going to say that its as accurate as any other marker I've shot. There's no real difference. Its consistant thanks to the propane, and it shoots rather nicely. Kind of odd to not have a hamer slamming into anything though. Theres a different feel to it when you shoot it...I like it alot. ------------- ? |

Dry firing is ludicrously loud. With paint I really think it sounds like a .22. It has a sharp crack to it, not the normal sound of a paintgun. -------------

Indeed. Let's not turn a perfectly good technical discussion into a moronic sniper debate. Please - no more sniper yay/nay posts in this thread. Thank you. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |
