my new custom marker (clocked 60 bps, not cps!)

[RamboPreacher]

Updated link of my review in process and more pictures. (click here)

The first waveform analysis clipped from this vid (click here select the Speedball Grinder link or the Blazer/Grinder show link) was just under 60 bps, but that was kind of a biased count since the spikes in the waveform were overlapping because the only microphone was the one in the vid cam.

I will be making a digital recording soon, for analysis and post the results.

VERY cool rambo!!

That is the tommy gun of the paintball world....awesome. Questions, how much did that cost and how much does it weigh?

[No sKiLLz]

Holy crap.

[RamboPreacher]

cost is "variable" - something about 5k or so, depending on customizations (even though there is a prototype, making this the "second one", it really is more of a "one-off"). Sorry, not gonna mention what I paid, but let me tell you that it's hard to "grind" when I had to "give my left arm".

As far as weight, it is over 40 pounds with loaders, not really weighed it loaded yet. When it was shipped to me, it weighed 38 pounds. I have a tactical vest with custom support straps (as well as special remote tank on the back) - makes it very easy to carry around - scenario games here I come!

That much eh? Im sure you will have fun with it and build muscle carrying it too Im extremely jealous I might add.

forgot to add...

No words can describe the feeling I have in my pants right now

wait a second... if my calculations are correct, there are 3 seperate markers there. and each one is connected to a 12v revvy (assuming theres no intellifeed, and if there is, please correct me). and ~60bps/3markers is roughly 20bps each marker. that means that those revvys were feeding 20bps to each marker on that monster?! that doesnt sound right. strap 3 halos on there and then ill believe you.

but for now, im going to believe about ~40bps. which is pretty friggin amazing!!!

the vl3ks are mine (if you check my page link, it even says I need to remember to crank it slowly when using the vl3ks)... the original test was from the videos and halob's were used.

Just wondering... Does it count as 60bps if it's really three guns doing ~ 20bps?

[RamboPreacher]

It's not "really" three guns. it is one marker (there is only one PPS Rock pneumatic regulator). each barrel shoots once at any given time and each barrel shoots 3 times per one revolution of the crank - 9 shots per single revolution of the "grind".

besides - what does "count" mean. it's not really tourney legal, and can't really be used in "normal" recreational play either.

nafer mana leebodusen durrrrrweeeeeeblehhh!!!

Yeah, I saw that and I started to speak jibberish...

[sneakyhacker420]

ahhhhhhh how did you get 3 VL 3000's? i want one! *walks to corner and whimpers*

[Army]

Brent, don't tell me that it's a Zebco crank on that!

That one looks 100x better than the original rusty crusty prototype. Did you build it, or did Glen?
Looks sweet...and FUN!
