Interesting mod for Tac-1

[MicroMiniMe]

Well there's using the rails and then there's:
eBay item
Adding a whole mount on top.
I guess the form and function applies more than just the whole 'sniper' hype.

Interesting I thought.
Hehe, one way to loose the air line off the foregrip :P

Actually, thats pretty badass.

Couple players in my area have them. Look better in person.

Looks are sometimes more important... Especially in scenario games...

I bet that spring loader has a great fire rate for about 20 balls...

And if you get hurt on the field you can use it as a crutch...

My question is how do you reload it? I haven't seen 20 round pods.

[Pullman]

2 cigar tubes and you're good to go.

That thing is pathetic.. On the website that sells them, they try to say that the longer the barrel the better, They also say you can enjoy aiming your scope and nailing someone in the goggles at 100 yards away.

They ruined a perfectly good tac, adn they should be ashamed that they turned what was already a great marker into a marketing ploy.

Sniper hype is always sniper hype.

I like the idea of the springfeed and I think they pulled it off well (although 15 rounds would have been fine since most tubes only hold 10 anyways and that allows you to refill before getting to your last shots). The hype on the other hand is hogwash and honestly those who understand about springfeeds know the deal anyways.

Very true, looks are often important for scenario games.

However spring feeds are not really about ROF, they are about consistent feeding without having to rock your marker after each shot so a ball falls into the breach. I have a custom springfeed for my Stroker so I can use it in pistol mode without having my motorized hopper on top (although I use it like that as well).

Sniper hype is always sniper hype.

very well put shartley,

My next door neighbor of paintball, proudly owns one of these, and the hype is not all "hogwash" I am quite impressed with its distance, looks, and quality. This marker is very solid, unlike cheap mods this gun does not rattle or klang about when running everything is tightened snug and I can see who ever designed it, has played the sport more than a few times.

On the other hand if one would like to purchase an extra magazine or replacement parts,
prices are absolutlely ludacris. But I feel its an outstanding mod for the Tac 1, and if someone has a problem with my words I will gladly pull my post when they show me something much better for the tac 1 that they designed themselves.

I like it because it has a stock that doesnt have to come from your asa.

[Creative Mayhem]

I like the longbow, however it does defeat the purpose of the Tac body. The longbow stock mounts to the rail and completely covers the 2 accesory rails on the side of the Tac body, leaving the user with one rail to mount accesories to.

First time I saw one was at http://www.specialopspaintball.com/a...ps_longbow.asp
I kinda like the look of it but would probably just use a hopper.

Alright guys I'm a big promoter of Spec-ops so I'll try my best to answer some of this,

First: The adapter that lets you attach the stock has rails on it to mount stuffd on it, mainly a sight, but I think you may be able to mount lasers and smaller stuff underneath the shroud.

2nd: Like he said the idea of the spring-fed clip is to eliminate a rock in cock of a normal 10 rd tube, it also gives a player a smaller profile

3rd: Spec-ops defines a sniper usually as a player who blends in with the bush and is ambushes unsuspecting players, not neccesarily from a long-distance, but come on guys every company hypes their product

4th: Spec-ops is also supposed to release a vest soon deaigned to carry their mags, I won't deny thought that the mag prices are crazy
