Bought it from Titus on MCB. Just got it today in the mail:

It's a Tippmann Pro-Lite with a 14" sniper barrel. I've added the APP loader, the old 7oz on/off CO2 tank and the sight.

I've never seen one of those in person as they are rare here in Brazil. The gun is so light! I really thought it would be twice as heavy, don't ask me why.

Nice. Can't go wrong with a trusty old tippmann.

How's the scene in Brazil? It would be too hot there for me to want to run around and play paintball lol.


Customs didn't try to steal it? I heard the Brazillian Customs officials like to take home presents lol.

LOL Tell me about the presents... I've lost some good packages already. Two Mag valves, one minimag body, one Bushmaster and several mask parts. :mad:

But this one had such a good price I've decided to take my chances.

This will be joining my 68 Special, a SL-68 II and the other 50+ guns in the collection.

Now, somedays are REALLY hot. Even I don't like playing in the summer but if you go play in July, then you have the perfect weather to play.

That was my first gun in '95! Mine had a sweet BOA barrel though.

The 'player package' I bought it with cost over $425 dollars with shipping..man times have changed.

Now I have 45 markers here and another 15 to 20 on the storage in Florida (every time I go there I bring 8 to 10 markers with me LOL).

I've transformed the home office into a paintball store. I'm already considering taking the last piece of wall and turning it into another pegboard. Thank God she understands me :rofl:

Got to love em'! I still have my 68 Carbine with 16" Dye... don't ask me why but it just felt right! My brother in law won his first speedball game with a Pro-Lite against angles and the like. Great great old school markers!
