98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun. If you would like to bonus ball these idiots put this in your sig.

Has anyone realized the fact that you CANT BREATH UNDERWATER?!!!
If you can, then you find a submergible gun and go have fun. But for the air-breathing land-dwelling majority of paintballers, this is a useless argument. The if your gun ends up underwater, odds are your head is too. You dont generally put you gun on your knee.

Well, getting back to the topic...

It wouldnt be all that hard to waterproof your gun. If you got a full boar upgrade that would eliminate complications with your bolt and powertube because it seals the action of the 98. Then you would have to line the inside edge of the elbow with a thin piece of rubber to prevent leaking. You wouldnt have to worry about the barrel because 1. If you shot it while the gun was underwater nothing would happen 2. The chambered paintball should seal out water from your hopper.

So, overall the full boar upgrade is pretty expensive but you'd need it to do it.  Other then that you would just need minor tweaks. Of course this is all speculation...

What about water coming in the barrel, into the breech, then up the feed tube and filling your hopper with water? Then your balls swell and get stuck in breech and next thing you've got balls bursting all over the inside of your barrel.

I'm pretty sure the pressure of the air in the hopper along with the fact that there is already a ball in the chamber should prevent that.

Besides, it takes a while for your balls to swell up.

its easy.  to make a waterproof hopper just put some kind of seal around the cap.  as long as you keep the gun upright water cant go up because the air is stopping it, as if you where to take a cup and put it upside down under water the water wont go up into the cup.  itll probably work because the little time that the ball leaves the hopper wont be enouph for it to swell
