What do you get when you cross

DM4 + Timmy + ICD = Hotness...

ICD is currently taking pre-orders on this machine, and this is ICD's attempt to get back into the higher end/pro scene of paintball and show they are here to dominate the rest.

ICD has always been a great company im glad they finally made a marker to represent them the way it should, I loved the shocktech bushmaster and still think its the best ICD/Shocktech has and will ever produce but I thikn im going to have to pick one of these up as well.

MSRP: $1050.00 USD estimate

air recocks marker, not spring.
Smaller and lighter then current ICD lineup.
Comes with a drop forward and On/off.
Standard with PDS.

Clamshell grip.
Rear mounted on/off LED Switches

four-way adjustable Trigger
Easy field stripping
New style rebuildable balldetent system.(no orings, cleans easily, stiffer to reduce double feeding)
3D milling

I'm definitely not going to flame and other people shouldn't because these threads were buried pretty deep, but this has been discussed before. The marker looks ok, I'm still very curious to see a schematic to see exactly how it works. Do you have a link to that? It'd definitely be welcome here.

it hasnt been released yet but i was told it has a venturi face delrin bolt, and it is pretty much a matrix, it supposidly fits together like a "puzzle" where thiers a center screw holding the back on which u take out and remove the whole top part ot get to the bolt assembly.

It'll be a lot faster with a Chaos or something


It works similar to their old Desert Fox, except more pneumatically. Kind of like a mag and trix hybrid. Specs and stuff can be seen at http://www.obod.net

I'd rather be roping in the game with an ugly gun than holding a pretty one up in the air as I walk off the field.

Ouch. :( J/K.

Speaking of which, saw a Dynasty Shocker yesterday. Tis a fugly piece of modern art. It reminds me of something two incestual, former patent lawyer Nazi's would create after a bad game of butt darts.

LOL!! If only Starbase was still around, I'm sure he'd try to take credit for how the style of pb is heading towards! We'd never hear the end of it!

I didnt think someone could actually do worse than the milling of the DM4, but somehow, ICD pulls it off...

EDIT allthough, now that I look at it, it looks like ICD was trying to mimic the dm4's looks... :confused:

The Dynasty Shocker HAS to be good. I mean, its got chinese characters on it.

They do nothing to the internals. It's such a waste of money.

But, but, but, the Chinese characters...

The only "shocking" thing about it is that people will buy them up like crazy, knowing that the premium price just represents money going into Dynasty's coffers.

I'd like to know the mechanism of operation. I hear it's blow forward electro???

And it's just hideous besides. The DM4 actually looks pretty good in person, I do have to say. It's smaller than it looks in pictures, and it isn't bad looking at all, at least in black to blue dust fade.

I call BS. Look at the linked threads, there is a totally un-annoed, gutless body on a normal carpet. and then the pics up top? A totally finished product being placed against cardboard boxes for a photoshoot? i know ICD had to pay on this settelment, but enough to not be able to do a normal shoot? Come on, yall.

I bet its a custom production by a new company that wants to circulate it being under a well-established firm, then to say, no someone else started that rumor. I mean, if there is a demand, then people will buy. But the chances of a demand for a custom one-gun company is not going to be too high in today'S paintball.

Ouch! :D

Nice one, Mindflux.

Yes, this marker has been in development for over a year now.
It is also the reason why ICD settled with Smart Parts.
They had a fortune tied up in R&D, prototyping, and tooling costs, and had to be able to market and sell it.
