I tell you, i have thought of something similar, but that has a compund bow, and those suck, so boo (well rather, i don't like to shoot them).

It will mount to any bow with adjustable risers ( usually aluminum )

The bow attachment goes for a little over 200.00 on Ebay.

I haven't seen it therefore it's new :p

Seriously though, it seems like not many people have seen it, i don't see a problem with him posting it.
EDIT: I just saw that they claim it shoots further than any other gun, which is either bullcrap or it shoots at over 300 fps.

i think it's been out a little more than a year i think. it just that they are finally getting picked up by a big supplier. they are neat but the only problem i would have is with the noise it makes after the shot when the bow sting causes a back and forth sound. cool idea but not the stealthiest. u can hear it in the videos on their site. wouldn't mind trying one in person though.

Outranges most other paintball markers by nearly 30 feet
O rly?

But yeah, old news. This is the fourth time I've seen a thread about it. Still be fun to try, but for the price I'd be most of the way to a ULE 'mag.

I know, but that's still someone. I wouldn't have known about it if it weren't for this thread, and so that's why if i've already heard of something but it hasn't been known about by literally everyone on the board i just pass up the thread rather than say that it's old news.

So, basically saying that it wouldn't pass crono or be legal on most, if not all fields?

I've seen it or another similar bow type pbgun in a preview for the ragtop vids from Waynes World... well it's that or some other scenario video... they look like fun. Lol imagine playing on a airball field with one of those... or rather having an all bow game, that'd be something else. Anybody own one, perhaps in the central fla area? I wanna try shooting one.

I heard a team at world cup had a guy using one in the first match to be funny. I've seen it, and have heard you can adjust the draw length of the bow to make sure it stays within chrono specs.

Nah, tons of companies make totally unfounded range claims. Smart Parts claimed the SP-8 had better range, and Jack Wood claimed the Ego shot "flatter" than other markers. Also, many barrel manufacturers tout the "great range" of their product. It doesn't mean anything other than "no one's going to bother to prove us wrong, so we'll say whatever the hell we want." :rolleyes:

Deadly accurate and ultra-quiet because of air push physics

Whoa, i just realized something, that thing uses air to push the ball, which is a lot quieter, it makes so much sense now! (not making fun of you, making fun of the description, because i assume that's what you were quoting)
