Did you notice in the pic it was a Tippmann Pro/Carbine? My bro got one for $150 or so and it said in the article that they pay $350 each for those Carbines. Getting the short end of the stick wouldnt u say? Granted they use different projectiles but the gun itself shouldnt cost THAT much.

the cops have been using PB guns for a while now, they use the PB guns to shoot their rubber bullets out of when they are shooting at a rowdy crowd.

I think I found out why the guns are so expensive. I looked closely at the picture. It appears that they are using compressed air, and not CO2. Also, they have a very sophisiticated laser or dot sight on the gun. The guns probably came packaged with this equipment, and that's why it costs so much.
Seriously, they should get Flatlines. They would be unstoppable.

yeah if they were shooting rubber balls then they wouldnt need to break at long range with flatlines.
