Wierdest Sounding Marker...

[Derman2k]

I was told it sounded like a wet fart .

lol I have a nova and it kinda sounds like that.

I worked at a park about 6 years ago... we had mostly tippman rentals but we had two POS stingrays.... when you shot em they would go CLANG CLANG

Carter pump.. sounds like a bull fart... no lie...

[WenULiVeUdiE]

I'm sure I could talk my friend into making one for him. What kinda of gun/barrel would this be for?

I'll talk to him tomorrow at the field about it.

Silencer's are illegal. The ATF states it is illegal to have any sort of sound surpression device that lowers the sound 1 decible(db). Just wanted to let you know.

And how do you know what a bull fart sounds like!?

Friend of mine has an Angel, stock barrel, something must've been loose on it, or the harmonics in this particular gun are just right, because every time it shoots, it makes a cash-register like "ching" noise, cept' quieter.

(He has since replaced the barrel and the noise stopped, sadly.)

My ATCI TM-11A also sounds kinda weird. I don't know how to describe it... Perhaps I'll look into getting a sound file from it, if AO would enjoy such things.

One of the most unique sounding (and loudest) is the BE Rainmaker.

In this post here on the BE Rainmaker board there are a couple of movies where you can hear the distinct rainmaker sound.

Yeah... My first time out with my rainmaker... I pulled off a few shots to make sure it still worked (hey, it is a brass eagle, I didn't trust it!)

5 Heads turn my way, all going "What the heck was that?" and one guy without even looking was like 'A rainmaker'
Fun little guns.

Ok this is an easy problem to solve. He should have just put a oring around the barrel. but that is how my Automag used to be. I had a JnJ barrel on my classic PF body. They used to say that every time i shoot they could see cent signs adound my gun.

EM1's dont sound too weird, but they're loud. An electro-pnumeatic sound, except louder, much louder.

First run of the Matrixes with a unported stock cocker barrel. It sounded like plop plop plop in rapid fire.

A mis timed cocker sounds pretty weird with all the hickups.

An Angel on low air.

unported barrel + marker = unique sound

Yeah, i'd hafta say rainmaker. I really did like those markers...

Tippmann m98's also have a very distinct thumping sound which can be heard from across the field.

And cockers just sound cool

Is a paintball marker actually considered a "firearm" by the ATF? I don't think so.

Bull's fart all the time... Haven't you ever been around cattle? I'm pretty sure they have farms up in Jersey!

Gotta love the "wet fart" sound of older spool valve markers. My favorite!

[Josh2Xtremes]

What about...

I always thought the old school "shoebox" Shockers had a wacky sound. Something like "hiculp-hiculp-hiculp-hiculp" when you heard one shoot, ESPECIALLY on CO2. The out-of-tune ones sound like ducks and I just can't get enough of that.

The ol' Crown Point barrel on a 'Mag made a distinctive sound to...that "ping of death," I liked to call it.

And I saw it listed above, the ol' Matrix made an interesting sound too, well-said...that "plop plop plop plop plop" is very unique.

I have an old Trracer pump I get a kick out of listening to also. It's a real "BARK" when it shoots. Like "BARK...click-click...BARK...click-click...BARK"

Ok I've probably bored you guys enough with my alliterative onomatopaeas. I'm going to go now.

its not really wierd but the coolest sounding gun still IMO was a classic rt shooting with a old dye boomstick. it made this sweet clincking noise. still can hear it in my head, loved it.

Well, that sucks, i've even seen old Taso suppressors for paintball guns that were made in the late '80's when porting wasn't heard of yet.
