then kindly remind me how this isn't highly revelant news.

Who makes the valve on the tank? I might just get one...

this sounds more like freebie advertising compared to a news flash, ill tell ya I wasnt jumping up and downAny paintball merger is thread-worthy, especially with two aftermarket parts companies as popular as Lucky & Evolve, although i was expecting Lucky to team up with Element first. So this is a surprise to me.

DM4/5 bolt kits... what about DM3/similar? I still gotta spend $100+ on an Evolve kit. :(

wablez - might want to email Lucky about that one.

[United Idiots]

Lucky paintball was always #1 in my book.

hip-hip horray

[fusion_05]

I <3 lucky. They're not trying to fanally drape us with high prices. Though I do think their barrel kit is over priced, imo.

$40 for a UL-quality barrel? overpriced?

[Sheps]

The tank reg looks pretty big IMO, but you can't argue with the price, I might have to get one; since I'm probably never going to be able to get a CF one once I get into university.

*edit* and it's a memorial closeout sale. this is standard price.

[nerdcore]

47/3000 for 50? i can get a pmi 72/3000 for 63That's a sale price. Which means it's not always that cheap... uh, i just read Someday's post... :P. Lucky's tank will be $50 all the time. But i will endulge you with a little math:

Lucky - $1.06 per cubic inch.
PMI @ AV - $.88 per cubic inch.

Looks like basic consumer pricing to me - the more you get the less you pay per unit. It's like buying a jar of mayonnaise; sure, buying a bigger jar is a better value but not everyone needs a gallon of mayonnaise.

[BunkerBoys]

^^lol. Why wouldnt you want a gallon of mayonnaise? Everybody needs mayonnaise.

Oops, thought it was a 47/4500 (read Someday's statement wrong :crazy: ). Yeah, it's less apealing now, but still a good deal if the reg turns out to be decent.

[qhimq]

that reg they put on that 47/3k is a PMI one....seems like just a sale, nothing long term.

they "teamed" up so well that even lucky has evolve's best product. the evolve pi regulator is in stock with billions of units waiting to be sold.


:dodgy:

[iliveforthis99]

Saw this in an e-mail i got from lucky. Can't wait till their CF tanks come out to see how much they are.

[qhimq]

they will be as heavy as hell, because of that pmi regulator on them.

I almost need a spotter when I lift one of those things.
