NEW Smart Parts Midlevel Low Price Marker

[Steelrat]

heres one cool thing. being plastic, and the shell being held in by screws, its feasable to have totally custom bodies.

now every forum can have their own body can you guess who is who?



(eh, just trying to occupy my time )

Really, thats one its best features. That, and its not a blowback, which makes it unusual at its price point.

I wonder

what happens when it gets hit with 3000psi. Does it say rated to 3000psi????????

unforunitly, thats because you need common sense to maintain paintball guns. alot of newbies buy impulses and shockers not knowing what they are doing. ive had a soleniod go on my shocker (just the o-rings really) but all it takes is a little common sense. Ive had an imp thats like a rock; lube before i play, and ive only had to replace the reg o-rings this month, after about 3 1/2 years.

the only plastic parts is the body shroud. machining a aluminum body wouldnt be hard to do, i thought i saw they it is held in by screws, so it would not be difficult . (although not saying ALL that much, but theres a reason that the military is now using composite bodies in their weapons, ie. xm8)


we shall see. if im not hit by a bolt of lightning in the next 30 seconds, im buying it, and ill post a full review including videos (it would come by monday) *runs fast!!!*

yea, it would be nice to get an unbiased review... not seeing this possible

I don't think there are many guns (if any) other than the mag that can handle that. Shoot, my excal is a precision made gun, but I think it would explode if you hit it with that much pressure

HOWEVER, to be fair, many guns can do things the mag can't do.

Check out that internal air line assembly....

I bet something like that can be done for a mag.......

It was (sort of) on the classic RT.

I hope beemer ment "SP made a mag "

"many guns can do things the mag can't do." Not to say that a mag can do every thing, but what are some thing that they can't do?

PRevent chops better, shoot faster legally, shoot deeper into a tank, get more shots off a tank, shoot with less recoil. Not taking ANYTHING away from the mags, they are amazing, they just have their shortcomings like everything else. The trick it to exploit their advantages and anticipate the shortcomings, like any other marker.

That's better efficiency than any "Rogue mag" you may have in stock.... sit down.


284.99 (Punisherspb) for a gun with those features?? I'll buy 2!

Many things can be sold for sub 300 when theyre made of plastic. aluminum parts surrounded by plasic... hrm sounds familiar, talon anyone??? at least they made it so you can saw that pos in half easily with some simple tools.




ps, i cant wait to see these guns breaking down at the field. should be fun to watch the refs play with the plastic.

["the FitZ"]

lose the plastic crap and put a sticker on it

[WicKeD_WaYz]

This sort of thing is good because it makes a gun like spyder have to be really competitive and cheap to even keep up. Guns are getting so ridiculously cheap these days when I started playing if you wanted an electric gun it was 700-1000 bucks and you would dominate the field, because nobody had them yet. I know I know some of you have been around since before all the electros...

I can't wait, between this and the DevilMag, to school idiots who think the marker is all that in a game. I think I'm going to make a habit dressing down, leavning my sponsor gear at home... and seeing on open play days how many arrogant players I can take out with my "newbie" gun or my mag, which is a blender

I agree with every thing but "PRevent chops better,shoot with less recoil" But i do agree with every thing else.

remember when the 03 shockers came out...the first couple of runs where complete TRASH. wonder if the ION first runs will be anybetter?

I am going to wait a while...and then pick one up after all the reviews are out there...

I think this is a good move for all of us...I really dont like SP...but it is going to force other companys to make better and CHEAPER markers. and that is a good thing for everyone.

but nothing will replace my ULE Custom

it shoots so fast people think is a shocker all the time anyway....played with it a year and still have never chopped a ball!!! thank you AGD!

[TDonovan]

Great idea IMO... I don't like SP, but I'd consider buying one of these. I am selling my mag because I need the extra cash, and I don't play with it enough to warrant keeping it. If I sell the mag and my tippmann I can still have enough money to function and pick up one of these. Interesting...

As long as it doesn't have MASSIVE FSDO, thread stripping problems, or some other durability flaw, they oughta be great.
