    Redz or Empire

    Help! I'm so confused, I just got the stuff to finish my e-mag, and I don't know what barrel system to get for it, I've narrowed it down to the Redz Pepperstick or the Empire Revolver, both in kits. What do ya think?

    p.s. Ya, I know there is probably a thousand threads like this, but I don't care much.

    I'm a fan of one piece barrels m'self (like the Lucky 15). However, given the option, I'd pick up a Pepper Stick set in a heart beat.

      I don't know about the Empire, but the Redz do have a longer control bore, close to if not over 8", which is necessary for maximum efficiency on a Mag...

          see I've heard a lot of great things about the empire Kits myself so I had to go with those
          but in all reality I'd go with a Boomstick

            Boomsticks are nice, I'll admit, but a little heavy.

              Barrel??

              Good Day, I know about the Scepter kit from powerlyte and I'll say it is the best shooting I have ever shot....that withstanding, the Empire revolver kit is the Sceptor kit under the empire name so you won't go wrong. Try shoot both or at least one of them so you can with it or rule it out. My .02....Good Luck. "Outlaw5"

                I borrowed my buddies pepperstick once (Didn't have the right bore size in my UL kit).

                It put paint out right on par with any other barrel I've ever used.

                I've never used the revolver.

                    I tried to order a redz, but they are on backorder almost three months according to National Paintball Supply, so I ordered the revolver kit. Thanks for all of your help, this thread is now yours.

                      Vernal Utah huh. Where do you guys play over there? I grew up in Tabiona and altamont hard to find games around there. My dad has approved to let me and some buddies use his trackhoe and D9. Plus he has a couple hundred acres just deing to have some bunkers made. We should have a pretty nice out door field done after a couple sats of playing around with the earth movers. Might have to invite you over to play. you can try out my Peppersticks.

                        bryceeden and myself manage Paintball Addiction, a newer paintball shop in Vernal. The city parks and rec guys let us set up speedball fields in the city park for tournaments, including permanent anchors for the netting poles so people can watch safely. Outside of speedball, if you drive for half an hour any direction you can find some woods, sandunes, or flats to play on. We also have a few local players that own property dedicated to paintball. A good friend of mine has an awesome field set up in Naples, five minutes out of Vernal. It's a crazy mix of woods and speedball that is always fun to play on. Sounds like you've got a nice setup, let me know when your done, we'll get some guys together and come play.

                          Bo-bo(Desega) What do you mean newer? We've been here since 2002. Granted I started it as Dyslexic Paintball then it became Millennium Paintball and now its Paintball Addiction its still been in the same place with the same phone number and everything since 2002. Plus when was I demoted from Owner to manager? I was never informed of this? Along that line when where you promoted from slave labor to manager? anyway, yes, we have a store in Vernal and run a tourney circuit with the parks and rec department. And one of my team members owns a free access rec field we usually play on. OK, Bo-bo's going to freakout and fill this thread with all sorts of usless stuff now
