I got my new TAC-ONE last week and have been really itchin' to go use it on some moving targets. Sunday we're going to play at SWAT CITY for a bit then go out to the riverbottom and really cut loose.
This marker is really sweet. I took it over to my brother-in-laws house and laid some paint out against some wall targets he has. 2 words for it. FREAKIN' SWEET!
As soon as I get an ARMSON barrel for it I'll have some killer accuracy vers the J&J that came on it.
I'm running a Warp Feed with a Revvy hopper(X-board) and am in the process of making some custom brackets to move the warp to whereever I want it to be.

P.S. I'm also the 1st in Az to have one according to my factory contact!

I have the Armson, a J&J and the stock RTP/Emag Barrel.
I've also had SP's All American and a Teardrop.

Order of preference:
1. J&J (excellent, because most paint is getting smaller)
2. Stock (excellent, but a larger bore)
3. All American (ok)
4. Armson (ok, But I don't buy the rifling bit)
5. Teadrop (horrible, one break in the barrel and it's over)

My suggestion stick with the J&J.;)

Where are the pics!!!!!?????!!!??

Well, if its the stock ule rtp barrel, it's .689 bore j&j, so that's rather large. I do beleive that the j&j is better than an armson, b/c an armson is can be really temperamental about paint. Bad paint get REAL bad accurasy with that, and if you get a break, it's a pain to clean. Rifling does nothing to good paint, but paint that is bad it will send out flying in every direction. Go with the j&j

edit: Just so that you know, this is from first hand experience. Two of my friends have armson barrels, and they are both really unhappy with them. I've tried them myself, and I agree with them

Get a ULT for it. I love my T1 great, great marker. Who needs Goat Roper Parts when you have Tom Kaye and his genius. Here's mine: <img src="http://www.hunt101.com/img/106529.jpg" border="0" alt=""></font></p>

I have some pics of the T-1 set up to run, but I haven't been able to figure out how to put them on here.
Today I went and played at a place called SWAT CITY(you can access their site at SWAT CITY.com) and had a blast. The people who play there are all about playing and having fun. Sundays is the day also that teams come out and practice on the SUP-AIR field. So we played a couple with the big dogs and had a good time. I even took out my brother-in-law once. He got me too so it was cool.
I really like the warp feed and the fact that I can shoot from all kinds of funky angles with it and not worry about having a ball feed problem.
If you know how to pull pics from your hard drive and post them on here please let me know so that I can post some.
This marker did exactly what I needed it to, and without and hassles!
If you're thinking about getting another one or a new one, look at the T-1. You won't be sorry.

I'm all for [utting the rest of the goodies on it but I think that my wife would probably have a fit. Between engines and paintball I haven't been spending money on much else for some time now. I believe that women(most, not all) are lacking some type of genetic gene that prevents them from having fun the same way that guys do. Of course my wife tends to disagree....

I don't know where you can get one of these at this time. I got mine through a friend who is sponsored by AGD. I can tell you this though. This marker is dead-on. I didn't have to make a single adjustment when I took it out to play. Over the course of the last 5 days I've probably put 2-3 cases through it and it still hasn't changed. I had heard, but don't know, that some of the RT-PROS have to be adjusted after a bit of playing because "they're still breaking in". I haven't had that problem though. Will I? I don't know, but so far so good!!!
I am extremely happy with it. A couple of friends were finally able to come over and check it out. I could have sold it but I'm keeping it. You should have seen their faces when I shot them out while shooting it upside down, I couldn't help it due to the cover that I had and that was the only shooting position available.

Is it just me, or do TAC-One bodies look cool regarless of what you style of play might be?
I love the way that the mounting lugs look on the main body. Well, it's good to hear that there is another happy 'Mag owner!

If you're looking for any type of night vision, lights that are durable or any type of heavy duty equipment you should really be looking getting them from weapons stores. Stores that cater to law enforcement or military are the best place to go. The gear may cost a bit more, but in the long run you'll end up spending less money overall because the product is better and you'll also have less downtime.

It's been awhile since I got here and wrote anything, I've been too busy with work and trying to play as much as possible. As some of you know, who actually know me, I custom make certain things for mine and my friends markers( warp brackets, adaptors & silencers etc.). The past couple of months have seen us going to game after game and having a blast. At one of the games about 3 weeks ago we, the AZ Ghillie-men, took on everybody who happened to be out at a park called SWAT CITY(see info below). We got a 5 minute head-start due to the "Sniper's Island" field being a bit of a walk away from the main staging area. There were about 30-35 people who came out onto the field looking to get shot, and with the doulbe hit rule in place they had 2 chances to dusted by us. The game took about 20-25 minutes and was a blast. Here's a picture of out "team", who by the way are not sponsored(read- not tied to any specific product).
I also have a couple of videos that were shot by one of the ref's who had his phone out there also for just such a purpose. If you want to see some of them just let me know, keep in mind though that these were shot with a phone and don't have the same kind of resolution that you'd get from a digital camera. Good nonetheless, and thanks to John.

SWAT CITY has since closed it's doors due to legal problems with the land owner, they signed a 5 year lease with the 1st option to buy. A couple of months later she gets a serious offer to sell for a housing developement and has been trying to get them ever since. They hope to be able to open in a month or two. I'm crossing my fingers!!!! It was the best place around here to play, and I'd know because we went to almost every place to play in the valley(Phoenix metro area) before finding SWAT CITY last year.
