Read the discription (http://www.actionmarkers.com/amProductPages/amSentinelTSPro.htm)

I know this isn't true, I can't believe that they could marker the Sentiel that way. :cuss:

Try to remember they are advertising and trying to sell their product instead of another company getting the buisness

Dude. Get used to it? In ever single issue of PGI there is an ad for the Tippman A5, which claims it has the fastest rates of fire of any marker in the world.

He's referring to the fact that they're calling it "the fastest, most consistent mechanical marker ever produced in the paintball world!".

It's called hype, get used to it.

It's just advertising. Like what Ring of Scale said, Tippman claims in there ads that the a5 is the the fastest gun in the world. Thats BS and everyone knows it. This is BS and everyone knows it.

I see that but those are just words. When you look at the stats it shows the real truth and not that marketing bs.

Someone told me that the Sentinel is like the Porche of paintball markers. Is that true? :p

They probably get the consistency by that reg on vert asa.

To me it looks like another knock off fancy milled spyder.

I'll stick to my 68 Automag :clap:

LMAO......Well said!

This hype marketing goes back to the days of Brass Eagle being made in Canada, with beautiful 2 page spreads in APG magazine, on their Poison, Jaguar, Golden Eagle, Nightmare, and King Cobra paintball markers.

Actually......goes back before that.....but we all need a point of reference.

I'll keep my mag, thanks.

its a spyder clone so in reality it can cycle 40-50cps

The Tippmann ad refers to the fact that the A5 has its own loader and is the fastest gun, because other guns either come stock with a gravity feed hopper or no hopper at all.

Out of the box, the A5 will be faster than any other marker system, because others require an aftermarket hopper.

When you think about it, the A5 is the fastest...

(sorry to go OT, just had to point this out)
