    "Tricked" is just another term for "modified for performance". Any gun that has performance enhancing mods can said to be tricked. Cosmetic mods do not count.
    Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

      tricked = noob definition of any gun which is not 'standard'. The term is used for the purposes of trying to sell said gun to another noob :)

            tricked for me is any combination of good looks and good performance

            on a scale:

            most guys with mags that have upgraded barrel/system, LX, new frame, some other cosmetic things etc. is trick to very trick.

            Xerces acid washed E-mag is VERY Tricked.

            and Chimera might be the redefinition of tricked, since that takes a already tricked marker and pushes it to the maximum of both looks and performance

                i think chimera would be custom.. rather than tricked. i think tricked would be something with excessive upgrades.

                  The word "Tricked" as applied to any paintball marker denotes "newb-magnet" to me :)

                    I never use the word to describe a Marker I think that upgraded or custom work better. I think it's just loosely used slang.

                    The dictionary says

                    Tricked

                    Trick \Trick\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. Tricked; p. pr. & vb. n. Tricking.] 1. To deceive by cunning or artifice; to impose on; to defraud; to cheat; as, to trick another in the sale of a horse.

                    2. To dress; to decorate; to set off; to adorn fantastically; -- often followed by up, off, or out. `` Trick her off in air.'' --Pope.


                    3. To draw in outline, as with a pen; to delineate or distinguish without color, as arms, etc., in heraldry.

                      I personally think "tricked" is a stupid word.

                      Why not "upgraded"?

                        Is this "tricked" or just "souped up"?

                            What tircked means.

                            For a gun to be "tricked out" usually means that somebody wants to impress you with all the money they spend on their gun....or they want to sell you their gun.

                              "very trick" applies with the moded rail, matching and Max-flo.

                                tricked implies custom milling, anno, and stuff like that. A stock cocker with upgraded parts is not trick. A impulse with upgrades is not tricked, it's crap.
