Where does your loyalty lie?

theres a private lable gun comin out in my area. very simple, easy to maintain, and 26 bps out of box. not to mention it weighs less then a pound. no name for it yet, but its goin to be around 800. i'll get one and show you guys, but til then i won't say crap

Sounds like if many of you would jump ship if they had to use co2 to a tippmann

its not exactly jumping ship since thats what I've been using... Ive owned 2 classic mags... and want to get one again, but still, in the worst possible conditions, I would trust that tippy to work without any problems where as the mag I would expect to have to mess around with it a bit...

not saying it wont work, but the tippy will without any issues whatsoever.

WHOA

The lightest guns that come to mind are mags, remains, and those old reciprocating barrel things, but they are all over a pound.

I differ, expecting nothing working as flawlessly as a mag even in extreme paintball conditions. My phylosophy is if you doubt your equipment it leads to doubting yourself. This sort of transference can cost you the win. I shoot mags, I'm very comfortable with mags and I never doubt their quality and abilty to be more reliable than anything else. Maybe jumping ship is a bad metaphor, but doubting is spot on. In my case don't confuse my loyalty as blind faith. I've over the coarse of many years. I have played in some wicked weather and have gotten through the day with out incident. What ever mag I choose to take into battle that day, I know it will not fail me as long as I haven't failed to properly care for it and in turn failed myself. Man and machine united. On the field I couldn't think of no other machine I'd rather be with.

Yes, Meredith that is my final answer.

"My phylosophy is if you doubt your equipment it leads to doubting yourself"

I agree with you completely on this point.. I have no doubt that my tippy will shoot no matter what, I can chop, jump in a river, fall on it, drop it off a cliff, get hit by a hydrogen bomb, and then use it as a club if i catch someone wiping... and it will still shoot..

The tippy lets me not worry about anything but playing paintball... my spyder and mags that Ive used are not quite the same... there isnt a HUGE difference, but the difference is still there.

Thats cool Bleachit. I'm not going to say anyones wrong. I'm now curious with the criteria the question from the first post presented how many abid mag users actually would stick by AGD and use their products in this scenerio? What is there now 2 of us that posted for mags? Tippmann in the lead. Sad since this is AO.

Sharpie... some dude marked 968 cds with one sharpie... http://www.cockeyed.com/inside/sharpie/sharpie1.html


A marker is a marker is a marker...

If we're talking guns I owned. I'd start reaching for my A-5 or my '99 RF Cocker. If just guns in general... mmm... yeah, I'd still go for those, and probably a pump kit for the Cocker if things started getting really dicey.

my CCM Series5 cocker.

pretty sure i've seen it. pretty slick piece of work. Sooo lightweight, so nice.

as for what gun i would use regarless of price (on co2) probably a e-blazer. with dual stabilizers.

low availability of parts, palmers already has that.

[White_Noise]

for all of the requirements here, id either get:

classic mag with palmer stabilizer so i can play in the cold with co2

or

the mech cocker i used to have, nicest cocker ive ever shot, and it worked great on co2 in a pinch. not to mention i had it tuned/it still is tuned to have suction timing, never chopped with it with a revy on it.

lol, i'll get you guys pic's when i buy one. i ran into mel from pbx not long ago, and i saw some pretty sweet stuff, and learned alot. AO will be thrilled once they see how it works.

[electriceel125]

AKA viking with dual stabalizers. Or PPS blazer with dual stabalizers.

[m-a-r-k-7]

I would have to say something from palmers. Probably a Typhoon, I've never really like the look of blazers for some reason. Palmers will run well on co2 or HPA, so it really doesn't matter.
