I was wondering about the Alpha Black E-grip gun... On some sites it
says that it has 4 firing modes, others say 3. On Ebay I even saw an
E-grip Alpha Black tactical, and it had a picture on the actual Alpha
Black packaging and it said "Electronic - 5 firing modes!". I checked
the Tippmann site and it said only 3. I'm confused. Is there different
kinds of firing modes for different Packages of Alpha Black Tacticals
with E-grips? http://www.discountpaintball.com/us-army-alpha-black-egrip-tactical-paintball-gun-tippmann-p-4887.html - http://www.discountpaintball.com/us-army-alpha-black-egrip-tactical-paintball-gun-tippmann-p-4887.html - Heres a site that says it has 4. And heres the picture of the Alpha Black Tactical Packaging that I found on Ebay, and the http://cgi.ebay.com/Tippmann-US-Army-Alpha-Black-Tactical-E-Grip-Gun_W0QQitemZ130229715479QQihZ003QQcategoryZ10554QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247 - link to the actual item that says it.

lol to be honest i bought 1 almost a week ago. my package says 5 firing modes. but i open up the manual and it says 4. i went out side and shot a few hundread rounds in all the different modes and theres (1) single semi-auto mode. (2)3 round burst (3) full auto 12Bps and (4)full auto 15Bps. so there is only 4 modes

So wierd... btw how do you change the firing modes? Is there a switch or something? I'm wondering because mine should be arriving in the mail by either tomorrow or the day after.  -------------

theres a switch u hold for 5 sec its a little hole on the inside of the trigger handel. and under the button theres a led light so u no its on. most e grip/ trigger buttons are on the outside of the handel by your palm. you need a little allen wrench to put down the whole. you cant use any thing but a little skinny rod of some swort. no fingers lol
