I Know this is suppose to be a pistol, but how big is this thing?it would defeat the purpose of being a pistol if its the same size as a regular marker.

Is it really the same size as a tippmann a-5 w/o the barrel?Thats a pretty darn big pistol.

Yes, it is. If you go over to the picture thread, you can see for yourself. Face it, a paintball gun can only be so small, what with .68 caliber paintballs...

The pictures are good, but a better idea is this:

1 person posted a picture of a Zeus next to a tippmann without a barrel and the tippman was a little bigger.

Pistol wise, the zeus is one of the heavist ones ive used, but it hasnt given me problems like the PTX, plus the look is better.

I know the zeus is built to take some abuse, while the PTX is thinner metal I dont think I would want to use the PTX in real scenero games.

the tippmann with out its barrel cant shoot anything. therfore its not the whole marker. also the tippman is a inline blowback.. which makes it smaller top wise. the Zeus is a well made beast and shoot great.

g35thanh let me know if you are intrested in a bolt.

Check kampfer's site. The zeus is a bit bigger than an A-5 without barrel. They're both as long, but zeus is taller by quite a bit. I'll stick to the PGP, thank you very much!

well yeah its going to be taller.. its got the magazine on top instead of a hopper..

you put the gun together like its supposed to be shot then the A5 is twice as big as the zeus. add the hopper on and its 3 times bigger than the zeus.

you cant compare them if they are not in ready to shoot form.

Hmmm, how about this then :idea:

Put the stock extension barrel on the Zeus G2, with the bottomline kit plus the hopper feed adapter.

Now put the moded Zeus G2 next to an A-5. :atten:

I think the A-5 is still bigger in this comparison, but I reckon it'll be about the same size as a 98.
