Looks like a really good computer generated image to me.

[behemoth]

Aaron, now how did you obtain that information? :dance: :hail:

[JrnyFan1985]

It looks like a mag, except its claimed to be electropnuematic? If this is real, and if all that stuff is true (and works), it could be pretty incredible.

Return from Paintball Hiatus & New Gun Design
by Twiek

*****snip*******

One of the biggest things, though, is that a local pneumatics company has decided to enter paintball, and they found me to make their web site. So far, they've got a marker called the "Revo", and it looks very promising. I'm not allowed to share how it works, but I must say the operation and specs are awesome. The design is the brain-child of Rick Lemoka, who works at the shop... all the guys that helped with the design play paintball, and they got an EE (very smart guy) that does all their electronic automation to design a slick board. The proto is sooo bad ***, and I even got to voice a couple of opinions I definately hope they give me a good deal on one when they have production versions.

Anyways, the website is http://www.hxpaintball.com> if ya'll want to check it out. They've never done any kind of web site or finished graphics, so I was pretty much a one man band for the whole shabang.

They hooked me up with a (old) copy of 3ds max for the graphics (I would have done the site for 3ds alone :D ), so I should be able to do some better renderings and animations too.

Well... Just wanted to share with you guys since, collectively, the guild is the most intelligent group on the web, and I know you'll appreciate it.

Who knows :)

Agde!

[gc82000]

I trhink it might be a hoax. In the description it says a pound and ten ounces. can that be real. and that the gun has more than 10 times the computing capability of the original IBM PC or the Apple IIe. I say BS. :nono:

[teufelhunden]

1 lb 10 oz isn't far fetched, and 10x the processing power of an Apple IIe/IBM PC is nothing. Your calculator has that, or more. Those computers were ~1mhz,

[Muzikman]

The only thing that strikes me odd is that the domain name is only registered for a year. If you are planning a business and the cheap cost of a domain, why only register it for a year?

At the same time, someone did come out an verbally talk about this gun. It's not like someone just came by and dropped off a URL and left.

[Ityl]

it's a hoax. Do a search for HX Pneumatics. I found nothing.

[spantol]

The guy that first mentioned it had said that this was the company had not previously done anything on the web. It's mentioned in that blurb BlackHalo quoted.

[Automaget]

HUH?!? :p

PUNCTUATION IS YOUR FRIEND! Capitalisation might help too. :D

[NukeGoose]

The 'Gemini System' for the Autococker also uses two LPR's and a 5-way (one LPR to send the ram back, and one to send it forward I believe). Could this be related? Since it says that it is a closed bolt, something similar to an E-Cocker with 2 LPR's would be about right, but it also says that it only has the bolt moving. Perhaps a hybrid Matrix/Cocker-type setup? It would have to use an additional noid of some type to operate the valve I think, since the 'dump chamber' wouldn't work the same way with the closed bolt.

[einhander619]

Jus' wondering, what does Tom have to say about the apparent ripoff of the intelliframe?

[68magOwner]

...8 way adjustable trigger..... :confused:
