          They stop making electros because they do not need anything else. All is perfect!

            At scenarios? I dunno about that. At our field we ref their big games which usually have around 800-1000 people.

            Honestly, what do I see there more than anything else (well, besides tippmans) when we chrono people on?

            Electronic Guns... Whether it's an e-spyder, ion, or a DM7 - it doesn't matter. I guarantee if I were to go count the non-rentals, the electros would outweight the mecahnicals.

            So, as Rogue like to point out many times - I'm speaking from experience on this.

              Yeah guys....besides Tippmanns and non-rentals I bet the remaining 12 guns out of 800 would be electros too

              Im a ref, and I speak from experience!

                I would say about half of the markers there are own equipment and i may be generous on the amount of rentals out... When you chrono on close to 500 guns, you can see what everyone is shooting. So yes, from being a REF at these scenarios I *DO* speak from experience..

                  I would have to agree on your point. After attending quite a few scenario games, other than rentals and tippmanns, there are not that many mechanical markers out there. I see many more electros than I do mechanicals...

                  And it doesn't surprise me at all...

                    I dont think Im complaining, Im just questioning the "hype" that surrounds mags - seemingly advanced by a select few people.

                      You dont need much experience, or to be a ref, to realize that Tippmanns & rentals(mechs) make up the large majority of Scenarios. Once those are removed from the count, the remaining minority will be electros...not a leap of genious to come to that conclusion.

                        Which hype is that?

                        Find it, and list it for me. Ill bite. Include their names too, Id like to know who you are referring to as the 'select few'.

                          I wasnt saying you could find a Tac1 in every scenario players hands. I know tippmanns rule that market.

                          Still, i was under the impression that the tac 1 kinda boosted sales just a smidge. Maybe i was wrong though.

                              Because the very first response to this thread explained it perfectly...

                              Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.


                              If Zupe came here every time someone cried or complained about something, it would only encourage more crying and complaining. There is enough of that already, we dont need more. And since the answer is already posted, there is no need for Zupe to repeat what has already been said.

                                settle down

                                i think even the almighty RF has been amazed at the unforeseeable demand for a product.

                                and zupe never post regardless, i think the online thing just isnt for him..im not sure it has much with not wanting to commune with the fanbase, but i dont know him personaly.

                                and to go along with what rf just reposted and BE did originaly. IF agd were in a miracle of all miracles to clear out all inventory expcept replacement parts and the newer ule customs they would be even more streamlined and would perhaps have more leeway to do larger runs and focus on other things. but that ofcourse requires losing the "old" "outdated" inventory.
