Old Skool eye candy for you

The grey one is a montneel Z1, one of the first ones made, ala welded feed tube.

the second one is a mega-z.

Montneel moved to canada and still makes them for rediculous prices.

If you weren't shooting a Z-1 in the early 90's in the NY area you were shunned, they were the gun to have.

Mine had the Muti-gas valve, either liquid or vapor co2. It shot awesome, until the compressed air concept came out and other markers would work reliably in colder weather, then mags and cockers took over the world.

Any gun that works on liquid CO2 works great in cold weather.

You can modify a spyder, or any spyder clone, to work on liquid CO2 using a syphon tank.

You gain cold-weather dependability, but lose some effeciency.

Not to mention it'll kill your orings quicker, but if you want to play paintball somewhere really cold that doesnt have N2, it will work :)

the idea was the Z series wouldn't have efficiency issues with liquid that other markers would.

Pigsweat--I think this is a good indication that it would be a good investment

great cold weather guns...

before N2, this was the cold weather semi to have. If you need barrels for them, I think they are compatible with the Line SI Bushmasters. If I hadn't bought an F2 Illustrator in 1993/94, I probably would have bought this gun.

Z-1

I have a Z-1 bought it in 92'. I have had quite a few other gunz through the years but this one is the best( semi-auto) gun I have ever had. You can get them still for 249.00 online. This is definetly the most consistent in the cold weather.
