Just one thing

[Beemer]

Somebody asked me this question twenty something years ago, he doesnt remember but I do. If you could have your Paintball gun do one thing, what would it be? Or what is the most important thing to you your gun has to do?

After a minute of thought I gave my answer. The reply was..... so you dont care about weight, looks, speed, profile etc, bla, bla, bla. No, no I dont. What was My answer?

[aqua_scummm]

Shoot straight, every time.

My mags and phantoms have never failed to do so, and I am very content with them

[Toll]

Compensate.

~.^


ps . Fire a ball when I pull the trigger.

[d4m4don3]

be reliable

[Gabriel]

do things your wife wont do anymore? :rofl:

[ManInBlack]

Do things your wife never did in the first place. ;)

[pmstc]

Let me guess.. shoot 30 bps???????

AM I RITE AM I RITE :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Chronobreak]

work?

[Elemental]

Shoot every ball at a constant 285 fps.

[ThePixelGuru]

The one thing I most want my paintball marker to do is put paint exactly where I want it every time I pull the trigger. I would guess your answer was not terribly dissimilar.

[Beemer]

Shoot every ball at a constant 285 fps.

Except I said 299.

Next question. Who has the most consistent gun and at what BPS and how do you know? I have a gun that will shoot 299 everytime at one BPS. Is there a crono that will measure FPS on 15 balls in one second?

[snoopay700]

My classic shoots pretty consistent, varies only a few fps, and my RT is the same, the only other gun that i've seen rival them was the1antichrist's 98, thing shot 275 like 3 shots in a row before it was off again.

[trevorjk]

ive seen a viking shoot 285, 285, 285, ect ect. im guessing it would do pretty much the same at around 15bps

I can verify that too it was crazy it was nice chronoing a gun that woudlnt shoot 399 then drop.... but thats another story.

[Elemental]

With consistent big paint my Sniper will do +/-1 over the chrono.

:rofl: I remember a similar discussion taking place at one of the Big Games at PBSams once upon a time...

I still say that there has got to be a chronograph that can do this. I am betting it will be expensive, but real nonetheless.

What do you think a mag does at 15BPS? Assuming it was tuned properly, I'll bet that there is a slightly diminished consistency with a full tank, with consistency diminishing more as tank pressure decreases.

I will now attempt to locate said chrono ;)

Well, since I can't get it to make beer, I guess I'll settle for shooting consistantly.

[snoopay700]

How about making beer paintballs and shooting them consistently?

[pmstc]

I would assume that a gun's consistency at a high ROF would have more to do with the regulators than the gun itself, assuming that it's consistent at a low ROF.

You're correct as far as i know, as long as the regulator can regulate air that fast it should shoot consistently up to that speed, so some guns may have problems, but mags shouldn't unless i've heard wrong.

[Zone Drifter]

I want mine to NEVER break a ball, be it in the barrel or breech.

im still looking at AKA :cheers:

What are you getting at Beemer?

:confused:

[going_home]

What are you getting at Beemer?

:confused:

He just hit 50 you know....... so he could be popping in and out of reality heheh.

You know.... flashbacks 35 years later. That window pane was some lingering stuff lol.

What I'm wondering is how I got past that phase of life still breathing :confused:

:rolleyes:

[Coralis]

Shoot around bunkers to get the guy hiding behind

I don't know, I would assume that an agitated loader would shake them up and cause the shell to burst. Then again, that might not be such a bad thing.

Well i wasn't too serious, but if you ever try it just make sure not to pull the trigger with your mouth on the barrel. ;)
