put the laser site on the barrel. I got mine on my pipe and it works fine

Nah, I don't really like it on my barrel. Everytime I take off the barrel kit, I have to change the positioning of the laser.

I've positioned things for ease of use. I can flick on the laser with both hands on the marker and the TAC Light is on a pressure switch.

Thanks for comments everyone.

Only problem I see with it, is loader clearence with the laser, why don't you put in on the other rail, don't have to worry about re-postion problem with the barrel mount.

Nice T1! I recently got back into scenario, but I can't bringmyself to buy a "scenario" style gun.(yet!)

I do play speedball and do the occasional tournament so I'm excited to take it on the airball and hyperball fields.

Anyone else have suggestions for what kind of annodizing? My brother suggested a desert camo theme that i'm also contemplating...

Here's my new "scenario" marker...

I not usually a big fan on acid wash colors, but it seemed appropriate for woodsgames. And the anno is much cleaner and nicer in person.

I would absolutely love to see you tromping through the woods with that flashlight on.
Thats like a beacon that says "here I am please shoot me"
Don't get me wrong.It looks great but it completly useless other than wow factor.Like what good is a scope on a paintball marker?
At first I was really impressed with the new tac one , but after giving it some though , I just can't see the usefulness in lugging around several more pounds of equipment that does nothing.

Aside from the negative aspects that thing looks awesome.A dust Olive anno will be super sweet.

Yeah I hear you on those accounts. I think the flashlight is usefull because in night games it can be used to illuminate the enemy so other people can fire at them as well. I have mine set up with a pressure switch so it's not running contstantly, only when I turn it on.

The scope is a 1X so there is no maginification, it just paints a red dot on my target. It's actually pretty accurate, you just have to copensate for it's position. To tell you the truth, I don't even play with it since I'm deadly accurate anyways :D

The laser pointer, I just got the for shirts and giggles but it still can be used to point out a target to someone. Again, it only goes on when I deem it's necessary.

What do you mean several more pounds? The light, scope and laser pointer probably weights less than pound. Thank goodness my rail is ULEd out and had the wings shaved.

X - I wouldn't mind playing another scenario, just not at PEVS. The scenario I played there wasn't as much fun as I thought it would be. I think it could have benefited to better planning and execution.

/me picks jaw up off floor

NICE tac one. Wish I had something that nice looking at the last scenario I went to. Hell, I wish someone on my team had had something that nice (tho the laser pointer would have been a no-no). Good work!

Gotta say blech on your ol' yeller mag though. I have never been a fan of yellow, either on cars or markers (even with a fade).

Tho tigerstripe or desert camo might be nice, an Alpenflage anno (or something similar) gets my vote! :D

Yeah I've always liked markers that not everyone else likes. You could say I usually don't follow the pack...

That alpenflage is pretty hideos. It reminds me too much of the magma xmag:

sweet emag and stuff but that battery pack is horrendous! That milling totally takes away from the gun, if you are trying to make it look like a clip then you might think about getting another. SWEET GUN THOUGH!
