Dude, that thing is bloody Sweet. Did you take that to one of the HSI Big games last year?

I would love to know what's going with that marker, if anyone knows. I'm fairly confused by it. I'm thinking it's someone's completely homemade paintball gun, which is pretty cool.

Pretty sure it was a gun used for shooting squibs on movie sets.

-That's exactly what it is.

It's a "semi production made" Special-Effects airgun, designed to shoot 11/16" balls for various purposes. It's completely pneumatic/mechanical, has both full-auto and semiauto, and a 20-round (as I recall) spring-fed magazine.

ROF is adjustable, velocity is adjustable and it runs on "shop air" level compressed air.

Bacci has the website for the fellow who makes them- or made them anyway- and it gives some details. It is NOT designed to use on the field, it's purely meant for shooting "spark balls" and other SFX projectiles, including glass balls (which shatter against brick or walls to simulate bullet strikes) or fake-blood-filled balls, and so on.

Way back when ('86 ish) it was one of the only such guns the FX people would use, from an adapability and reliability standpoint. Nowadays the same FX guys will use anything from PMI-3s to Raptors.

FX balls are still about the same though.
