Question About The Tac One

[_tMAN]

Does the tac-one come with an airline or am I going to have to buy that Separately?
And If I do have to buy it Separately can some point me in the right direction on what to buy?

[Automaggot68]

I was under the influence that it doesn't come with anything, as you're suppossed to build it as you see fit, to your standards.
I'd go macroline if i were you, cheaper than buying stainless steel with a Q/D, and your local pro-shoppe will most likely carry macroline kits. They retail for no more than $15.
Have fun with your Tac-one !

If it doesn't, it should come with airlines. Most scenario people just like to pull gun out of box, and add air and paint and shoot. Like Tippmanns. While the T1 is great, it is too much money and work for most scenario ballers. I know, because I started in scenario, and after 11 years in tourney, I've gone back.

A Tac-One is shipped lake all other mags (xmag, emag, rtpro ...etc).

NO AIRLINES OR CONNECTORS.

You need to prchase all macro line/steel braided lines and connectors.

I thought RTP's came with SS air hoses and a duckbill asa? Maybe I'm wrong I don't know.

They should. For the price AGD is asking, you could get an upgraded M-98.
If AGD wants to break into scenario, they need to lower thier prices. Most scenario ballers buy a 500 round bag for a 12 hour scenario, and leave with 100 leftover!
Hell, most games don't give points for eliminations, except for generals.

Since your a fellow socal player, I'll just say: Friends don't let friends type drunk.


Back to topic, I'm guessing no air lines unless you get it from a dealer.

LOL. Not drunk, but funny none the less.

Woah, that's a bit of a problem. I'd be buying a brand new marker myself in a month or two from AGD, and it wouldn't even come with a macroline. I have decent paintball maintenance skills, but that is after I've inspected a gun and intuitively learned just how it works. On the other hand, I'd have no clue how to get a macroline and bottomline ASA installed in a gun or anything, or what to get or anything. I would really appreciate it if any of the AGD techs would drop in here and explain whether or not it comes ready to be played with out of the box. If not, I might be looking back towards my A-5, because I hate having to mod a gun right out of the box. After a dozen small games of course, but right out the box I just want to hook up air and go out and play with it.

So, could somebody who has purchased a TAC-ONE or an AGD tech inform me whether this is ready to play with out of the box? If not, I might have to rethink my current decision because buying macrolines and all that stuff is just to much work for me right off the bat as compared to the Tippmann which I can just throw a tank on, fill the hopper, and let loose.

Dude. Macro is REALLY easy to use. most fitting already come with loctite type stuff on the threads, so all you have to do it screw them into your valve, and on your bottomline. If you wanted to, you could use your M98 bottom line as well. Just cut (make sure it's CLEAN) the macroline to how long you need it, and slide each end into the fitting. Easy as that. ALOT easier than stainless.


Edit: Hell, If you want, I can hook you up with a free bottmline ASA, all you'd have to do is pay me shipping, which would only be around a dollar or two.
Catch me on AIM, or I'll see you on it, if you have it.

No Macroline Pre-Installed?

Telling me macro is easy to use... that's how I up my Tippy. Jammed it in there super tight, trying to get it out I broke the tip off the powertube and actually made the wrench grip completely circular. Didn't have a clue what loctite was. Applied superglue and epoxy, and that solved the problem that it was still leaking and it wasn't ever coming out again anyways. Of course, the tube is still broken as the epoxy won't hold that tip on, so I will be needing to send it into Tippmann for repairs as I can't get my velocity up. Screw is almost out, and my velocity is still only getting about 250 off CO2 on a hot summer day, not to mention that a good deal of each shot's CO2 goes flying up the feed because the powertube doesn't control that anymore, so my firing rate has slowed because it won't feed that fast anymore unless I have a full hopper.

So, I really don't want to ever go through that hellish experience again, even if I know what loctite is this time. It is just too much a pain in the to ever again try installing that myself, and god knows I hate going to the proshop to install stuff.

When I open a box, I like to do this. and this
Not this. and this

Wrong. My bud's new ULE RTP came with the steel hose installed. No quick-disconnect, but oh well.

[_tMAN]

WOW!
I didn't assume that I would get such a big response.
I have had bad luck with macro/micro line in the past. Could someone give me some links on where to find some stainless steels braided hoses?
If I'm not mistaken the T1 has a gas through front grip right? So I would like to get 2 different lines. Could someone tell me what I need to buy and maybe the lengths I would need. I just need for AGD to get some more T1's in.

I bought a Tac-One and fresh out of the box ......... just a gun no lines.

I bought 2 emags forom AGD and guess what no air lines or connectors either.

And the 2 RT Pros I recently help 2 other folks get .... no air lines either.

And just last week my x-mag finally came in and it was bare .... no air connections.

Maybe its just when I order, or i didn't use the secret handshake or word.

I have personally received 6 guns shipped from AGD with no air accessories what-so-ever.

Is it an option I failed to have added at the time the order was placed? Could just be an easy oversight by me then.

Anyway I never cared and frankly never even thought about this subject till now. I always had my macro and air fittings ready to go.

Seriously and kind of air line and stuff is like the easiest thing to put on a gun and is hardly "modding" it. You screw it in and then cut the macro like maybe an inch or two longer that you think you need and stick it in and viola!
