Top Ten Reasons NOT To Own An Electronic Paintball Marker

10. 'Cause you're a "Sniper."

9. Eliminating the opposition is overrated.

8. My Stingray is sooooo juced it can keep up with your Angel.

7. Think of all the money you can save on paint.

6. I like the long, stiff trigger pull better.

5. I hate having all of those buttons on my gun.

4. Who wants to worry about having fresh batteries?

3. I can shoot 13 balls per second with my PGP.

2. I'm waiting for the Phantom semi-auto before I buy my next gun.

1. I'd have to get a job to afford one!

Umm.. I don't like electro's... My RT can keep up almost as well as most electro's out there right now. Heck, I shoot faster than a lot of these guys who don't know how to use their triggers.

I'm sorry, but I like being able to thrash my gun, and then just toss it in a bucket of water to rinse off.

I'd like to see you do that with your electro.

Seriously, that's about what I do. If the gun's gassed up, all vital areas are sealed off. I don't stick it in a bucket of water, but I put it in the shower and rinse it off for about 5 minutes.

A lot of times, I don't even take the gun apart. After rinsing or whatever, I'll dry-fire it a little bit just in case some water got into the bolt/bolt-spring area. Either that, or I'll take the valve out, run a squeegee through the mainbody and wipe off the bolt.

That how I used to clean my RT Pro. All the vitals are pressurized, so it's no real big deal. I wouldn't do it with my Emag though. NO WAY.

WOW i would never be that brave even with a spyder i think i would only be brave enough to do that with a tippmann they are like tanks.

Wouldn't do it with a spyder. The hammer is pulled back, and the springs, etc.. in there are exposed, and could get corroded, etc...

tippmans too. The "clam-shell" design isn't sealed, so you can get water inside the mainbody.

'mags are just special this way :) :)

Hey,
I resemble some of those reasons. I don't want to spend the money, carry that much paint around, I hate batteries, and I can shoot fast enough with my trusty ol' mag.

I think electros are overrated:eek:

hehe - sorry, not gonna happen. :D You'l have to take my word for it.

from the manual: At the field, a spray bottle with a strong stream will do. At home, try the kitchen sink. Save water and take your paintgun into the shower with you. Flush the gun thoroughly with warm water.
