ProLite and Procarb are basically the same thing. I'm a real big fan of Factory F/As, so I'm going with that. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

I hate any marker that requires me to wind the hopper like a stop-watch before playing...... ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

Well... I'll always be partial to the 68Carbine... just because it was my first, and I had/have five of them. 
ProLite would get my second pick. Have two of them. ProCarbine, third... have one. I sold my Factory F/A. It was a nice gun... but I favored the more simplistic designs. It'd be my last pick of the four choices. Out of the four, it stood the highest risk of developing problems on the field. |

Also, pro-lites cause your profile to shrink beyond the normal boundaries of space-time. For example, you can be a perfectly normal 5'7" 145lb 20-year-old and if you attempt to hide behind a 4" tree with just any-old paintball marker while 5 members of the opposing team are advancing on you, you will get shot. However, if you are using a pro-lite, your odds of surviving the encounter unscathed increase dramatically. You may even take a couple of them with you even if you don't. I kid you not, they bend space time around you and the tree... just ask Shorty.  ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

Psycho Ballistics tried to do that some time ago....
I wouldn't suggest it though. You could, theoretically, put an RT in a pro-lite, it'd just take some drilling, tapping, and a thin RT piston assembly. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |
