Yeah there are cool guns comin outta england and such, but i wonder when the Germans and their oh so famous "German Engeneering" skillz will come into play. Racegun is Danish, i think, close. Cant wait till they make a markers that comes with Cigarrete lighters and a Blaupunkt. Imagine that a French paintballgun, LeMarker. Or a Russian one that boubles a hammer, an Avtomat-Markerski or somethin...

I could be wrong but I think there was a cocker clone that was made in Germany. Was called a Magic, looked just like a cocker but it had metric threads and the 3way was square instead of round if I remember right. Only ever saw one of them and was told it came from germany.

paintball extremely restricted in germany... they are still touchy about guns since that whole take over the world thing, you know how it is... but almost all of europe is like that... honestly germans should stick to making cars... unless they want to make a wicked nice stock gun;)

Heh, I'd buy a German marker (used to live there as a kid).

Who wouldn't want a marker that gets pissed and takes over France?

I've played here in the US with a guy from Germany. It was a while ago, and he had a heavy accent, but he tried to explain something to me.

Actually owning a paintball marker isn't "illegal," just it is a HUGE hassle to get one into the country. What he would do is dissaemble the whole marker and split up the pieces into different suitcases. Since the pieces as a whole didn't look like anything interesting he'd get thru security. After he was in the country he'd take the pieces to some "dealer" that would engrave a code on the parts to "grandfather" them in and make them legal.

This was before 9/11 so things may have changed, and my memory could be wrong too.

Nope Racegun is Danish, believe me ;)
Here you can only buy paintball markers that have been examined by the BKA (something like your FBI). And we have a fps limit of 210... :(

I'd bet good money that the Germans could make a darn good paintball marker.

Gotta love the Germans.

Hey, I live in germany and you can play here. There are many fields here. But you can't play on someone's land or just go out in the forest and play. You have to go to a paintball field. There are many military bases that have fields. Thats where I play, since i'm a military kid. I'm 16 by the way.

What kind of Marker selection do you guys have over there?

bunkermaster10
02-02-2003, 01:22 PM
Are selection is called the internet, ha. But we do have some shops that have regular stuff just like in the states. We have the same markers in shops just like stores in the states but it's hella expensive, so no one goes there. We all have mags, and some people play wit impulses and shockers ;those are the most common guns.

Sledgehammer from these boards is from Germany as well. I think he's from Saarbrücken, and he shoots a black Extreme. I've talked to him before about some stuff, he's a nice guy :D

I think he's a police officer over there.
