Jaws Drop at The Paintball Arena!

hype?

I always thought the "crono shows" are a lot like the burn out contest that gear heads do w/muscle cars. Its like a way to say "Hey this gun can bounce like a mofo and I would prob never fire a constant stream of 20+ balls a game, but hey I can if I want to" Its like alpha wolf posturing, who can walk the fastest, whos gun is the twitchest(sp). I bet field owners love those guys, cause every time they goto to crono The owners eyes turn to $ $. I say keep wasting paint boys!!! diablo, pmi, rps employees need to feed their families and you guys help make that happen! LOL

It's the same look I get ripping an A5 RT. No one knows how fast it actually is,it just sounds rediculously fast and they have no idea how it's doing it,Mags just do it better.

The difference between the Mag and any other high end electro however,is the Mag can easily be made to run at it's max cyclic rate and the typical 'other' high end electros,even with mad bounce,will usually not cycle at it's full max rate. It's simply harder to get them to shoot at the Max without a 'true' auto mode and that's why you don't see many vids of it happening.

Either way, it's still quite fun to see peoples reaction to it, particularly those who haven't the experience or knowledge to understand the basis for it.

everyone says their gun can do the exact same thing if they set it up to bounce like that, yet none have tried it so it must be true. even if they did they need to get it on tape so we can sift through the bs that is thrown around.

i have probably a dozen videos on my computer of people with tons of different guns, where they pull the trigger, take their finger off, and it bounces until they manually stop the trigger (like in the zman vid with the vik). Or just holding fingers and it bouncing, walking and bouncing, etc etc etc.

... it's still quite fun to see peoples reaction to it, particularly those who haven't the experience or knowledge to understand the basis for it.

Yes, it is fun and entertaining. no doubt about that :) And if shown as to "test" something like a loader it can be useful. But for playing, not really.

Well if they can't look at his finger and tell he's not pulling the trigger more than once, that's stupidity, not hype.

Yes but some people don't look at the videos closely, take the first reply to the post for instance:

so this is with bounce?

But that point is moot because this took place at a paintball field.

huh? I'm talking about here on the forums and the videos that are posted.

Some friends and I were in a 3 man league a few years ago. I used my old school RT all the time. Other teams tried to get me thrown out because they swore my RT was full auto. I just handed it to the refs and said "Make it shoot auto". They would get maybe 3 or 4 quick shots and then chuff it. They would hand it back and just shake their heads. That old RT spanked a lot of butt.

It's only hype, when all you can do is talk about it

[Skoad]

exactly, amen shartley!

just trying to keep people from getting the wrong impression.

such as with efficiency (although that may become less of a problem in the near future).

can be turned into hype if misconstrued or misinterpreted

care to share?

That's cool, but I'd think any high-end electro set to db1 fed by a q-loader or victory boarded halo could hit at least high 20's if not 30. Not sure though, but that's what I'd think. But it's cool either way.

at db 2 my timmy will hit 23 by itself, and weve gotten it up to 28

[jesseyo13]

if you set an a4 to ramp+ trigger off set to 1 it will probably easily go 25+, even though its ridiculously illegal. Nonetheless its fun to watch.
