    is a grease gun a firearm or cannon? no, but its in there isn't it?

    A device resembling a firearm or cannon, as in its ability to project something, such as grease, under pressure or at great speed.
    Or should we be using "grease markers" on our machinery?

    :P

    I for one, would like to see WDP make a whole new design for a marker. keep the Angel around, but start venturing into wholey new designs.

      Dude, Im sure your english is a million times better than my sweedish. That being said, the definition stated A device resembling a firearm or cannon, as in its ability to project something, such as grease, under pressure or at great speed. A paintball marker projects a paintball down a barrel, just as a firearm projects a bullet down a barrel. Therefore, it resembles one. It projects a paintball under pressure, and at great speed. According to that definition, a paintball marker could reasonably be labeled a "gun."

      On a side note, maybe calling them "guns" forces everyone to treat them with more respect then they would if everyone called them "markers."

        Making the back smaller but keeping the front like that gives it sort of a hunchback appearance.
        well thats a prototype, not a production model so it might be milled down a little, but maybe not.
        wheres the noid now? the grip frame?
        i like how that thing looks and might consider buying one should i want a new gun and have the cash, but only if they mill all the extra metal off the thing.

              Next year they will finally just put the 'noid and battery in the grip and just make the Angel a stacked tubed marker like the timmi, but with a slightly different ram. Then it will be really tiny. Companies like WDP, Kingman, Bob Long, PMI, and WGP have found what they do well and just did it a little better every year, and made buying older markers a little cheaper for the rest of us.

                  ok, you shoot a stock BKO, go shoot a friends Alias, or DM4, then when you hear that a new gun is FASTER, or the eyes actually WORK (Angel Eyes vs. Sensi) then you'd be even MORE impressed

                    Personally I don't care for the way it looks. I know its just a prototype but the milling is weak sauce.

                              FSU: You have a good point, but NPS doesn't say that every time a new timmy comes out, all previous ones suck. WDP basically does that: they talk about how much better the new models are than the old, rather than just talking about how good the new models are - which is a bit rediculous, since they're still producing and trying to sell the slightly older models. How many people will hold off buying that '05 Speed now because they know that resale is going to go sliding down after the G7 is released, and instead go with some other type of gun?
                              NPS, on the other hand, releases a slew of markers at once that are all similar in specifications - for example, all the 2k4 body intimidators (Alias, ND, Dark, A-Bomb, RL, etc) are pretty much identical, with the only notable difference being milling. You could say that there are three tiers of Intimidators (Classic, 2k2, and 2k4), whereas each Angel is slightly better than its predecessor.
