New Automag Conversion

[Tunaman]

I say melt it down!

With all the sniping and stuff going on right now, one would have to be a real FOOL to take that into a public place. Be prepared...you may get shot if you pull that out in the wrong place. We dont need this stuff in paintball. Just my 2 cents, I love real guns as much as the next guy. But I believe there are limitations that must be followed if you really want to support this sport. Get rid of it before someone gets hurt.

Though not really a question at my place. Owning one of these would be a major crime over here and send you to prison for 1 year minimum...

Nice work, but I think if you want to make realistic markers, airsoft's your sport- most of us don't want to be assossiated with it

Nice try. But paintball MARKER is the preferred name, and this is even according to the industry itself. This is because the "guns" first used were in fact used to MARK cattle and trees.... thus "markers".

You may want to rethink acting indignant about the name used and your "correction" of folks using the correct terminology.

And in fact you will NEVER see nor hear me call them anything other than "marker".

Paintball is advanced tag. You don't "gun" people down, you "remove" them from the game by marking them with a gelatin-enclosed capsule.

First of, i'm with Shartly on this one... ignorance is bliss isn't it? ( in referance to the UN-educated ppl shart was talking about.

Second, I'm VERY impressed Rick, that's is REALLY cool. I'm a machinist (without machines right now) and understand the amount of ingenuity and work and design that went into that thing, if I had the money I'll be lookiing ya up for one, cause you'll never find anyone more into CUSTOM, not pretty colors.. CUSTOM stuff.

And lastly, no offence intended but I in all due respect I think that tunaman is getting more and more agresive in his "opinions". Opinions are ok... Shartly is also alowed to have his opinions, but presentation is everything. YOu can say " that freaking sucks " or " it's not really my thing" and mean the same.

Just my umm 3 cent

I'm wondering what this thing looks like after a hopper and an air system is attatched :P . I'm just assuming that you'd just use a remote hose setup and the hopper would go right over the sight rail.


I Think it's cool and everything, but for stated reasons it might not be the best idea

FYI, every conversation I've ever had with Tom he used the word "gun" instead of marker... :)

Well I think its sweet. Just curious how many man hours you have into it and how much the total project cost. Also pics of the complete setup with air and paint would be appreciated. Keep up the good work.
