Tippmann's next gun may not be up to their usual standards, what with the takeover and purge that is going on.

As for Smart Parts ... may all Smart Parts customers suffer a long-term urinary tract infection.

Is God real? You'll find out when you die.

Okay, I don't have a clever signature zinger. So sue me.

Nothing wrong with that. I used to use an SP drop forward until they decided they wanted to be the Hitler Youth of paintball.

Since then, however, it has made the long journey into the landfill, and SP has never gotten another cent of my money, even though were circumstances different, I would love to have a new Shocker. Before the defication made contact with the rotary air-motivational device, I fully planned to invest in a Shocker.

I still might even consider an older Shocker or Impulse, because the corporation will never see a penny of the proceeds from the sale.

I just can't support a company that finds their profit sheet more important than the long term impact they leave on the industry they are involved in.

When I still had a reliable contact in Ft. Wayne, the buzz was that a new marker was under development, but things have changed since then, so who can tell?

Regardless, I bet that it won't be a "Tippmann-quality" marker.

It's the end of an era.

I deffinitly agree, I hate what they're doing, they dont seem to care about the sport as a whole at all.

If Tippmann came out with a newmarker, why would it not be as good.  Yes things have chagned but it might be even better.  I think they need to show the paintball world that they have still got it.

Well, my two cents is that they're next marker will be more speedball oriented/high end marker, probably a bit different from what they've been doing, it'll have tippmanns sig color....black o_O goin to get a paintjob for that right away lol. I highly doubt it'll have a cyclone feed cause thats wuts so special about the a-5, so i think it'll be vert feed. I heard rumors it'll come stock with like upgraded WAS board or something. Dunno wut it'll look like, possibly a vert feed lookin a-5 or a 98 hybrid, or something just completely different. Idk bout everyone else but im kinda lookin forward to it, n might get it depending on the price and if i think its worth it.
