What to do with old revys. I have 2 old revys that the eyes do not work. I play a scenario. It rains. I buy a new revy. I play a scenario. It rains. I but a new revy. etc. The rest of it still works but I use like 3 different guns and do not really want to fit micro switches to all of them. Any other ideas to get these working again.
Thanks

A. Buy a soldering iron
B. Go here: http://www.dropzonepaintball.com/dropzone/product.asp?s_id=0&dept_id=9162&pf_id=NPNDHBFFKIKDJAAO

Actually I cant remember if the eyes are soldered or if there is a wire conection, or a little plastic connector..

Coat all that stuff except for the lens with clear silicone. A light coating will keep water out and it can be removed. It takes about 5 minutes to waterproof your hopper with a tube of this stuff.;) :D

You could just get them fixed. I have been using the same rev for 4 years now and only the shell, motor, and paddle are original. At larger toury's (not sure about scenario games) Brass Eagle usally have a booth up that you can take your rev's to and get them fixed. Had my eye changed at the Diablo IO just last year, cost me 5 bucks. You may be able to order replacement parts since it is an easy fix, just plug in a new eye.

Pick up a reload kit. They work great and give new life to old shells.
