M98 RT.

With the reactiveness allowed, you would have a distinct ROF advantage over everyone else.

ULE bodied RT pro with the input cranked to 1100psi:D

There are two guns I would consider, that being an entirely ULE Intelliframed Mag, or a Powerlyte Hybrid. In the end I think I would take the Hybrid, so I voted Cockers since it is based around the same basic design.

RT = FIREPOWER! <= Remember... accuaracy through volume.

The only NEGATIVES would be:

RT PRO => efficiency, and chuffing

M98 RT + Halo => chopping, mis-feeds

A-5 RT => just how fast and reliable is the cyclone feeding system?

I would take these RT guns and their overwhelming 10-18 bps firepower over the 5-10 bps "flat 1,000 yard trajectory" of a cocker any day... but that's just me :)

So do you feel that by allowing RT sweet-spotting, other guns, such as 'cocker's are at a disadvantage?

Are the RT Pro's and Tippy's too fast for the cockers?

wobbles82
07-25-2003, 12:42 PM
RT-PRO all the way! I use an RTPX as my tourny marker right now...I guess its a mechanical day for me...everyday! Woo. With the pressure cranked just right the RTPX with a HALO B would smoke the Tippies im sorry, and efficiency wise? Who said there was no airline? And who said it was that bad ? :D Did I mention reliability with the RT is like a brick? Cant say that bout the cockers...they are still stuck in the "short stroke" time period. :p

What about an Emag with the battery removed (running in mechanical mode)?

My M98RTLP won't chop at all. Considering I could outrun any loader aside from a HALO, I know the M98 will feed hella fast, as you also know, J+C.

Tough call, I like the Emag in mech mode, but there is something sweet about dumping on someone with an M98. (pics here: http://www.paintballandstuff.net/m98 )

Another advantage that mags have over cockers is:
Reliability.
And everywhere else they're equal. A buddy of mine can actually shoot 13bps with his mech cocker set up. I don't know what is on it (nor do I really care:p ), but he can rip on it. I guess it depends on the player with the gun. And even though a sweet spotted RTP can outshoot you average cocker, cockers totally wreck us in accuracy and range:rolleyes: :p

I just remembered about the "full-auto" features of the AT-85...

BTW, the idea I had about this "fantasy" tournament was to create a NHB style for MECHANICAL MARKERS ONLY.

Think of it as the UFC or PRIDE F/C of tournaments... :)

Minimum rules and Maximum fun for NON-ELECTROS.

The first "Pure" UFC's had:

*** NO HOLDS BARRED ***
*** NO EYE ATTACK ***
*** NO BITING ***

This tounry would have:

*** MAX FPS = 280 ***
*** MAX BPS = UNLIMITED ***
*** NO ELECTROS ***
*** ANY type of firing system - as long as it is MECHANICAL ONLY ***

Wouldn't RT guns kind of ruin the purpose with no RT rules? I mean a lot of people would just let their guns go on runaway, which can be just as fast or faster than many people can fire electros.

Whats so special about haveing an Emag pin on it? What would it do on the rt pro if its purpose on the emag is to turn it on or off and an rt pro is not electronic??

By on/off pin, I meant the on/off pin in the on/off assembly in teh valve. The emag pin is very short (.712 I believe), and gives you crazy reactivity in the trigger

Man, I hate to bring this up, but half you guys are the exact reason mags take so much flack from the Bounce issue department. If this was anything near a legit tourney, bounce would NOT be allowed, yet you all openly admit to liking it or using it. I'm particularly looking at you WCkeep. You're supposed to be a hard core tourney player.

You guys cant just handle a decent semi automatic gun. Everything has to be turned up, pressure maxxed, and practically running away. Half you Mag shooters are dangerous cheaters. I would hate to play a walk on game with any of you, for fear you'd put 10 to 12 balls right through my lenses, or my throat.

God! The very same forum where all you hypocrates stand behind all Toms "Lets deal with bounce" threads, and then you're spewing your love of bounce just a few threads away.

You guys are the majority of the reason bounce has even become an issue. I'm so sick of the 10 and 20 mins worth of time at every tourney thats wasted on refs checking everyone's gun. Mags deserve the bad rep they get in this department.

Go ahead, flame on! I could care less...

07-25-2003, 02:51 PM
Its not a matter of fantasy, or rules. It a matter of saftey. The fact that its against the rules in a tournament, doesnt make it bad. The fact that its dangerous, makes it bad. Condoning the use of it, IS condoning the use of it.

I'm less likely to believe someone "wasnt bouncing" this time when they got caught, when they believe in using in in any other scenario.

Actually it's just asking which gun you'd prefer to use in a tourney, not which one can get the highest bps.

Dude...

chill out...

this is a "PRETEND" tournament...

This is just for "fun" discussion! :)

Think of it as an EXTREME TOURNAMENT... The REAL X-BALL... ;)

The only major safety rule is MAX VELOCITY = 280 FPS.

As far as over-shooting is concerned, I have TONS of experience playing RT (both my sweet-spotting mag and M98RT) in private games where we don't care about sweet-spotting or bounce. We all know each other and trust each other. I can tell you this... I shoot WAY more paint (bursts) using my GZ timmy and when I use my RT guns.

I'm not trying to justify RT or anything.

This thread is just a "what if". If you want to play in this thread, just consider the rules and pick a gun. That's it! Nothing more. There is no debate about the morals or validity of my rules. They are what they are because I said so. :)

There is NO RIGHT ANSWER... it's just for fun. What weapon would you choose given the rules stated above? sheeeesh.... :rolleyes:

JEDI
07-25-2003, 03:16 PM
I did play along. I voted cocker. Then when I went to explain why, I noticed all the responses about people and their cheater guns. I can understand the idea of "make believe" and "lighten up", but when its an issue as serious as this (in paintball anyway) its not too good for Mags when its main usergroup openly discusses the joy of using it.

If this was Toms thread (I know...its not Toms thread), and he was discussing doing away with bounce, all the same people here would be Butt Kissing agreeing with him.

but the conversation shifted from it being what gun to which gun can get the high bps.

and i would not be butt kissing to do away with bounce because the small amounts of bounce that the rt mags normally get are what help get a couple more balls out per second.

JEDI,

PLEASE... if you wish to argue and flame people regarding sweet-spotting, please CREATE your OWN thread.

Adam, I never said I condoned bounce, or would use it in real life. But in the fantasy land that is this poll, an M98 with RT trigger would have 1.5X more firepower than any other gun.

If the rules allow for something that gives you an edge, you wouldn't take it?

If the NPPL rules didn't have a rule against trigger bounce, it was deemed perfectly legal, you wouldn't use it even though it gave you distinct edge?

We aren't talking about playing in the grey here. That's cheating. We are talking about using every advantage at your disposal while still playing WITHIN the rules.

Tourney players are likely to push things further in real life. I can't even count the number of times I have heard serious tourney players talk about how to play the grey.

Fine, in real life, trigger bounce isn't safe. Who gives a flick, because in this poll, reality is out the window.

R/T/X Mag, since when can a bouncing Tippy out shoot a bouncing Mag? I can R/T my Mag well beyond my Halo till the L10's kicking in like every other shot.;)

Also,if your banning electros(I assume 'cause of ROF) why allow R/T guns?

I just thought it's be fun to see which gun you'd choose if ONLY MECHANICAL GUNS were allowed.

Remember the old stories of two gentlement just about to duel to the death. A third guy opens a box and says, "choose your weapon".

If you want to humor yourself, just pretend Smart Parts killed off the electro market, and NPPL and PSP created a MECH only divison...

With retro allowed: Tippman 98 w/ Halo and reactivity cranked to extreme levels

w/o retro: Orracle

if it ever works: ULE mag w/ lvl 10, ult, and the sear mod so the pull is reduced w/o increase in pull weight. HUGE "if" there.

I hate to say it, but if mech tourneys ever became popular, retro should be banned just like electro, the whole idea is to limit the ROF to human levels and 1 shot 1 pull and by allowing reactivity you're defeating the purpose and basically making eliminating skill again. If tourney promoters allowed it, it'd be obvious their intent was really a way to circumvent SPs patent costs and still rope people into buying mech markers. I think a WAS with bounce is safer and involves more skill than a tippy with uncontrollable runaway reactivity.

I don't think Retro=runaway or sweetspot exclusively.Reactive triggers within legal limits is not unlike lightening the pull on other markers to increase speed.I don't see a problem with it.I actually shoot faster on a classic valve,the R/T weight and reaction is not what I really like in a trigger.

Oh and if Full R/T is allowed.....Mag hands down over anything.:D

A BPS Reflex Autococker. The only cocker without a trigger spring... :-) IT used a ram and a restrictor valve. The trigger ram ran on LPR pressure, the restrictor is how you set bolt open time. the guns were disgustingly fast. And effectively full auto.

If we allow sweetspotting the mech only markers will outshine even today's fastest electros...

AGD would dominate as it has a way to control ball breakage with L-10 if the sweetspot becomes too sweet.

The RT-P is just as fast if not faster than the tippy RT

I was starting to get a little ticked untill I finaly saw someone post this point. RT absolutly does not = runaway trigger bounce. Most of you guys who are saying you'll "sweetspot" aren't talking about sweetspoting at all. Cranking the input up and letting the trigger run away isn't sweetspoting.


Originally posted by RRfireblade

I myself prefer the Retro as it allows me to shoot faster but that's just my expereance. I do think that for most people yhe RT absoultly can increase rate of fire due to the trigger returning faster. When you find the sweet spot it'll be the point when the trigger fully returns at exactly the same time/point you are ready to pull it again. However, if the harder pull really puts you off then obviously it's not for everyone.

Are you saying no reactivity at all or just the input down to the point were you CAN NOT get it to runaway?

If the first...I'd probably still go with a L10 Mag of some sort.

If the second..I'd take an RTP with 700-800psi input.

Just to be clear. All Mags (using mechanical frames/mode)have "reactivity." That's how the trigger is returned. It's just that the Retro type valves return harder than the classic.

TheTramp,

sweet-spotting = simulated FA utilizing an exaggerated reactive trigger return force and a constant finger pressure on the trigger.

runaway = gun malfunctioning and firing all by itself with out any input from the user. If you disengage your finger from the trigger and the gun stops shooting, then it is not runaway.

This link will lead you to a video of a "runaway" gun:

Take a look back to all the threads on this definition from the beginning of this forum. It became one of those "Do a search!" issues.

At least as far as Mags go, runaway is the gun firing without you activly pulling the trigger. ie: keeping you finger in one spot and letting the trigger bounce off it.


The point of my last post was to ask if you ment one-shot-one-pull (no runaway or what ever you want to call it) or no reactivity at all.

my Killer Klassic... Benchmark 2x, conquest, and classic valve. I would maybe put the lvlx in to give you guys a chance. I rarely chop in lvl7...

Nope.That's sweetspotting..........or is it?;)

If you want to sound LESS illegal it's sweetspotting.If someone is doing it at YOU,it's runaway or bounce.:) I guess some poeple feel if you have at least SOME control,it's sweetspotting.I don't know,it all sounds about the same to me.

Well, it's a 5-10psi input fine line so it's probably all academic anyway.:)

reactivity or not I like the RT valve. You all know my semi-famous sig videos down there. I can life with 15-17 off the mech trigger and if I get to boots it, 22-23 is not bad either ;)

I think I would want a classic RT w/ intelliframe since I wanted one when they first came out but didn,t have the money, so that would be my gun of choice.

I'd just grab my RT/pro, and rock and roll.
This is a great idea, is this going to go anywhere? Kind of like a retro (not referring to Mags) style game? I think this would be really cool. Too bad I'm going to Turkey in May...:(

Yep, the AT-4/AT-85 would be my choice. Not as reliable as my RT, but it'd be fun none the less.

These guns would allow you to kick serious butt in this hypothetical ALL MECHANICAL GUN (anything goes) Tournament!
