best scenario marker ever!

[ShaftyMcGee]

personally id love to have a mac-10 paintball marker, especially if they could make it clip feed with the 12 gram compartment hidden so it looks uber realistic. i mean how much fun would it be running around with a couple of these things scaring walk-ons

someone make me some of these please!

what would your ideal scenario gun be?

[ExtremeODD]

hmm if it was a 10-20 shot one with no hopper (spring fed clip) and hidden co2, then it would look real, but if it had any hopper, it would be not as real looking

[ShaftyMcGee]

yeah, if they put any sort of hopper on there id just kill the look

[p8ntball1016]

that would be good on a remote and a warp feed.

[rx2]

If it functioned anything like the real Mac, it would be the most miserable piece of junk ever.

[ShaftyMcGee]

a warp? blah... that'd kill the look, i could live with running it on a remote though, i think it would be best if it was more self contained and used a spring fed clip and 12 grams

[Remington]

My ideal scenario guns would be a Beretta 92F and an M25 SWS(Sniper Weapon System). Mmmmmmmm . . . I can't wait 'till I'm 21 and can actually buy those(if I ever can afford them that is :rolleyes: )! :D I'll be at a target range for the rest of my life! ;)

Sorry about the pic sizes. :(

[ShaftyMcGee]

hmm i think that M25 SWS would be pretty easy to make, i found a place that takes phantoms puts them in rifle stocks and makes them bolt action, not quite the same but kinda close.

[edweird]

It would be easy... but I would like a pump converted into a Mossberg 500.

The mac 10s were out some time ago, and the way they designed it was ingenious if not quite economical. They used paintball shells, designed like real bullets. Gun powder fired a smaller caliber paintball at about 450 fps, but since it was smaller it hit with the same amount of energy as a 68 cal. 500 rounds cost upwards of a thousand bucks though, so they didnt exactly fare too well.

And remington, a Beretta is your dream gun? You must be smoking crack.

[Konigballer]

you want realistic looking machine guns? Welcome to the wonderfull world of airsoft! I've got a KSC Mac-11, just a tiny bit smaller than a Mac-10, that spits out bb's at 1200rpm. It rules, but paintball guns imitating real weapons has always looked retarded becuase of the air source, and hopper design considerations.

yup, but they were called Mod85 :)
I think they used something around .357 size shells.

Well, what's wrong with it? :confused: I'm sure you must have fired one considering your profession; isn't the 92F standard issue now?

[Konigballer]

I've read that the military is starting not to like berettas because of frequent malfunctions and slide cracks in the field. These were known weaknesses but they really came to the forefront by the special forces guys experiences durring the operations in Afghanistan.

I tried out one of these back in the 80's. Very cool.

[ramennoodles]

it wasnt quite 500 rds for a thousand it cost about the same as a box of ball 9mm ammo $15 for 50 but was to expensive for the public so know they are only available to law enforcement but its no longer a special gun they make ammo and barrels designed for just about every weapon made most guns just require a different spring to handle the low power charge, which is just the primer with barely any smokeless powder.

anyone interested this is the website

It's the locking block that cracks, I've never seen the slide crack.

Creating your own scenario marker isn't too hard or expensive. Just takes time, patience, a little know-how and an open wallet. Here is my scenario minimag.

http://mindspring.com/~jkoo/images/Minimag5a.jpg
http://mindspring.com/~jkoo/images/Minimag5b.jpg
http://mindspring.com/~jkoo/images/Minimag5c.jpg

Has Maglite mount, AR15 handguard and handle, 4x15 scope, laser sight, red-dot, Harris bipod, picatinny rails, with warp, gas-thru stock, ULT'd Emag valve with intelliframe.

[tony emerson]

If you like the M25 look at THIS (http://www.springfield-armory.com/prod-rifles-m25.shtml) by the way if you want to read about snipers read Carlos Hathcock's books!

If you're in to the scenario scene and what a semi-realistic looking marker, then I would suggest the Tippmann A-5.

There are some wonderful conversations for this marker to make it look more realistic and it maintains it's functionality.

For examples check out OpsGear (http://www.opsgear.com). If the hopper is a major sore point for you, they have a neat resolution. They take the top off a pod and put it on top of the A5 cyclone feed and it gives you right at 30-40 shots. Like this:

I wish scenario was more popular in my area b/c I'd be all over one of these converstions.

Not everything Mil spec is um good. And I have always held the 92F/M9 as a glaring example. (Oh and this goes for all you SOCOM droolers also)

those are sweet, id love one of those Ak-47 mag conversion, but i still have yet to find a 68 cal mac-10, the mod-85 sounds pretty cool but i bet they'd be hard to find
