I did a long search, and nothing I found came close to this topic. Though I'm sure it's there, I just couldn't find it. I always try and do a search before posting, wish more people would.
Any ways, enough rant. Tom, I honestly believe that the reproduction of the 6-pack would be great. I'm not saying that because I want one myself, though I do. I mean I could spend the 100 bucks on a rare original and be happy there. However, as a Paintball Marshal myself, we tend to talk a lot. And of course, a lot about paintball.
And honestly, Stock Class and Pump play have been making a comeback. More and more people have been dropping their semis for a few games and grabbing a PGP. Either to try something new, or as some of us are just not wanting to spend 500 dollars on paint for an event. I am one of them, I honestly can have just as much fun with my stock class PGP and spend a whole 10 dollars on paint and 12-grams... as I could during Castle Conquest at EMR with buying 2 cases of paint for $80 apiece.
Not only are the more people starting to join up and play this, there's quite a lot of people recently asking about it and also wondering. Being more future pump players.
Though if to make it, I would suggest making the pack completely vertical. Most ASAs are on the bottom of the grip fram, and that offset angle to it wouldn't be necessary. Not to mention it'd probably make it easier to manufacturer.
Of course, this wouldn't necessarily need to be done imediately. Though it is another idea to throw into the mix. I mean the Illusion just came out, WGP redesigned their Sniper II a bit, the Sterling is also going to have another new production run. And that's the industry, lately there's been a few pump-only teams at major tournaments, and I'm already guessing possibly 4 pump teams if not more at this coming Skyball.
