AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
I agree; it looks ugly. Also, having the body covered in PVC will make it feel (and look) cheap. At $350, it will compete with the Mini, Etha, Crossover and a handful of others all from well-known manufacturers in the paintball industry... It will be tough sledding to say the least.
they have to hype it - or it wouldn't be a sales promo video... but even so...the parts look kinda cheap in the pictures, and the audio they have in for firing the gun sounds like my squeaky work chair.
i'll stick to mags. personally i think most modern markers are ugly.
You want to shoot a "modern design" mag? Shoot the Etha. I watched the PE Tech video for it and I'm shocked at how close they are in comparison. I honestly think that this would have been the eventual evolution of the Mag platform had Tom refined the design.

I hadnt shot my chord mag for some time and last week I shot it all day except for the last two games of the day.
After shooting the Xvalve all day, then shooting an Etha the last two games, I decided I didnt like the Etha.
Funny thing is I had been playing with the Etha for a couple months and I was fine with it, until I compared it with the mag.
Well, I more alluded to how the gun itself worked. They both work on the "cork in a bottle" principle. It's just that Tom used a mechanical solution to stopping the air flow and PE used a solenoid.
