New gun from action markers we got the privelage of shooting this weekend @ Quest, that is DD7 in the picture.

It's not a blowback, more like an impulse/bushy/timmy/viking if I would guess...very nice trigger pull, very balanced, very stable shooting. I did break one ball, but it was a barrel break...damn SP/bad paint :-D

This gun has had me interested for a while. How was the kick (Matrix like, or stock Impy like)? Did you hear of a specific release date?

No kick whatsoever...

2 weeks they said, I believe..around 550?

That sounds awesome, especially for the price. I have also heard it pinches paint which is great. So far this sounds to be the best gun in it's price range, and knowing Action Markers, the initial release should be just about bug free (there may be some, even the best guns have had their problems).

the gripframe looks horrible- what's with the huge trigger guard and the box under the grip?

It wasn't in the production stage at the time, they said this is more or less the final version

The box, is the battery.

AM's website. This gun sounds pretty cool.


The Diadem I.T.S. is at the pinnacle of what Paintball markers should be. The hammer is replaced with a pneumatic ram that cycles at 18 + bps. Operating off of a 9v battery, you don't have to worry about loosing important adapters and plugs at tournaments. With its low-drain circuitry, you also won't have to worry about running your battery low during play. You also won't have to worry about draining your battery from forgetting to turn the electronics off, thanks to the Diadem's sleep mode.

The same operation style as the highest priced paintball markers, without the highest price tags!

Diadem I.T.S. Is the crown jewel of the Action Markers line of high performance, low cost, superior quality paintball markers.

Electro-Pneumatic operation
Low-drain sleep mode: You can leave your paintball guns on for weeks at a time before needing to change the battery
Hair-trigger; fully adjustable.
7 different firing modes, and user programmable options
Unique and distinctive high fashion body milling
Superior anodizing
Separate regulators for Valve and Ram allow for full user adjustability!

My brother had a Sentinel TS Sunburst...it wasnt bad for a blowback, but had its fair share of problems. I think this gun could actually have some potential, I saw it before and was shocked that it was nothing like the Sentinel. nerobro...I think it would matter if its a sear tripper, seeing how they are usually linked with reliability problems. Anyway, as for that new cocker....does anyone else think..hey..they kinda took the RT-Pro rail idea....and made it look horrible. What a dumb autococker. But im liking the Diadem, lets get some vids!
