MY gun isn't as HEAVY as yours!

[Person]

So many people around these forums seem to be interested in the minute weight loss of like .1 gram off of their marker when everyone seems to be overlooking the fact that they all strap on their compressed air tank weighing like 6 lbs, cmon guys...stainless owns

You're right!

[cdawg]

Dude, you're really right!

[abrewin450]

That is the most completely correct statement I've ever heard!!

Let's make markers out of lead blocks!

My whole setup weighs 5 or 6lbs with paint, have fun lugging around your SS.:)

My mag weighed 6 or 7, it cost me one body one x valve and maybe one 60 dollar body rail less then yours too. *shrug*

and im not trying to be rediculous -CDAWG- just logical.

I can curl 180 pounds.(just maxed last week:)) and I can shoulder press like 210.So my gun weight doesnt really affect me.But not everyone is as Ginormous and I am.

Im just trying to say stainless steel is a feature of the automag, and 1 lb or so isnt much of a difference at all. So why waste money.

All I hear is "Bigger Target".

I wasn't talking about my xmag, that's probably around 7. It's just that most people way underestimate the weight of there gun.

Do the math

Average light weight gun 2.5lbs
Lightest tank on the market 2.5lbs (45/45)
Halo with paint 2.5lbs (I think? )

Just approximates

Aw well, point is most setups are pobaly 8 or 9 pounds, including your mag if you had a larger tank. So many variables tho.

As long as there is a bunker for me to hide behind I seriously doubt my size matters. It might affect might have some consequences when I'm running to a bunker but it hasn't affected me yet since I know how run low and fast and all the other stuff that smart paintball players know how to do.

abrewin450 can run the 40 in 4.3 flat. That's with a full set of pods and his marker. And a Halo B.
