they are beautiful guns, i used to own one, until the cyclone coil on the inside broke , but they are really nice guns. Sad to see you sell such a nice gun.

you should keep it, it would be worth more to me on my wall, that the maybe $100 you would get when you sell it....whats that 2 tanks of gas, not even in most cars....bottomline- just keep it and eat the small amount of money you would get from sellin it ------------- Evil PIMP Smart Parts ION 2-98 customs Ariakon Sim4 Ariakon Overlord Mech DragunFly |

Thanks Guys! It really is a gun to behold. If you want, you can check out my sale threads on pbnation.com, mcarterbrown.com, paintballcity.org, and tippmannowners.com. Since I know it would drive you all nuts, I'll try and make a video when I fill my tank tomorrow.
-Believe me, I've already thought of that. The only problem is that you need a cvx valve to run the cyclone off of. -You can buy a new spring for the feeder, you just need to go to a clock store and try and find one there. -I will get more than 100 bucks for it. Its functional, in great shape, low s/n. Don't worry about that. I do want to keep it, but a car is more important right now. -It can cycle very fast, I'd say before it loses control, atleast 17-19bps, the only catch is that you will chop like an italian chef on parsley. Thats one of the main reasons this gun never took off. It starts to chop I'd say around 9bps, but then again, its an old spring, so replacing it may help. -How did I get my hands on it? I'm not kidding when I say this, I searched for months, following every lead I got. Then I found some guy that never used his, had no clue what it was worth and sold it at a rock bottom price. Though right now, there's a few for sale. Theres one besides mine on mcarterbrown.com and one on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Tippmann-F-A-Select-Fire-pa intball-marker-New_W0QQitemZ7248864618QQihZ015QQcategoryZ472 54QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem - http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Tippmann-F-A-Select-Fire-pa intball-marker-New_W0QQitemZ7248864618QQihZ015QQcategoryZ472 54QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem ------------- The few...
