credit to NWC on pbn for the find
appears to be a "pneumatic assist" trigger.. :(
for $220, however it appears to be a spyder and not a cocker of sorts... :rolleyes:

Been posted here before I believe but yes , that's the blow back version that was designed first.
It's based on the VL ProSeries Line (ProTeam Maxis btw) which was to be offered as a VL marker till K2 took a (percieved) hit on thier WGP investment and wants to try and hit up the low end market a little harder on the WGP side.

Designed as in trigger mech. It's a bit different from the Mag version.

Umm, no...didn't take it in a bad way just didn' think many people are aware of the VL line.
It's a spyder clone....except in this case it's actually a WGP branded copy of a VL clone of a spyder. :tard:
sheesh. :)
Oh and it is to early and I'm rushing around getting ready to go to the field.

Didn't realize they were claiming to be the first , that stated somewhere I missed?

I'll just congradulate RRfireblade on something he worked so hard on actually making it to market. Kudos! Hope it works out well (and still hope for a Mag version!).

They weren't claiming to be first, I threw that in as a joke. It wasn't funny though. :tard:
Did I miss something? Pnumatic trigger gun for 220 bucks? How much were mag owners going to have to fork out for just a grip frame? I like how this is introduced to the world on a crappy spyder, it will be preceived as crap and disappear into paintball obscurity.

its probly a plastic frame, and alot simpler(fewer parts)...
i would venture to say what we will possibly get will be of much higher quality and performance.

Made in China like most WGP/VL/BE stuff....tad cheaper over there to build stuff. ;)
If a person could sell 10,000 mags frames instead of the likely 2-300, they could be made over there for a quarter of the price too.
