      That's perhaps the stupidest thing I've ever heard from someone who claims to be a paintballer.

      120 meters per second, now my math isn't the greatest, but that's roughly 375 fps give or take. How is that even safe given that current masks are only rated to withstand 300 fps hits?

        And amazing that at speeds in excess of 300 FPS, the chance of hitting anything drops to near nil...

        And there's a such thing called "air resistance" which a paintball has in spades.

        Please tell me you're not really as dumb as I'm thinking you are....

            And so you're admitting to false advertising then?

              its not false advertising.. it does shoot this far your guns would probably do the same if you mod them correctly, but you would go against people with that kind of setting would you?

                A lot of us aren't taking it too seriously, it did give me a good laugh when i read it, but your description portrays paintball in a very bad light.

                Say there's a kid that wants to get a new paintball marker and he goes on ebay to check it out. He sees this thing and thinks it's pretty cool (for the sake of arguement we will say that money is not an issue) so he shows his parents. They read it and instantly they're going to be turned off to the sport as a whole.

                  All markers shoot the same distance with the same velocity, paint to bore match, regardless of barrel length.

                  The only barrel that adds range is the flatline barrel, and that's not the greatest investment anyway.

                  And if you're asking whether I would step out on the field with that marker...I play with people who do things like that all the time. Waste of money.

                  And now you're telling me I need to modify my markers correctly? I don't need any mods on any of my markers anymore, they shoot just fine for tournament level play.

                    And prey-tell, what 'mods' have you added to this 150.00 gun?

                    Unicorns are people too ...
                    Old Narhwals are people too ...
                    Grizzly Bears are people too ...
                    Caterpillars are people too ...
                    Baby Peacocks are people too ...

                        I don't believe anyone is being too hot headed here. I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with your waste of time comment, but I'm curious, if it's such a waste of time why are you posting here?

                          Exactly, just would like to know what mods you did to make your stock tippmann shoot faster then should ever be used in a paintball gun....

                            cuz im laughing all the way to the bank guys you should listen to your friend kauai_paintball from page one.. he understands... anyways heres the physics for youim leaving the forum now have fun talking about it tho

                            Vo = 120 m/s
                            Vy = 120 *sin(10) = 20.836 m/s

                            Dy = Do +VoT +1/2 A T^2
                            0 = 1.7 +20.838 T +1/2 * -9.81 T^2
                            T= 4.328 s

                            Dx = Vx*t
                            Vx = 120*cos(10) = 118.177 m/s --> Dx = 118.177 *4.328
                            =511.52 m = 1677.8 ft

                            1677.8 ft ~= 5.6 football feilds...
                            this is without air resistance... so with it might cut it in half or so... whatever.. cya
