What upgrades should I get for my tippmann?

[specter542]

My birthday is comming up and my Mom said she would spend a maximum of $150. I really want to get that zap hopper or the richoshey. Any suggestions?



:yell: :yell:

I would go with the ricochet (spelling?)

Maybe I'm just cheap...but my 12v Revvy works really well (remember...we are talking tippys here...not angels) so I'm sure they are even better w/ the X-boards...why not get 1 of those and have some cash for something else...just a thought. Just remember...more money is not always better...besides...you don't even have an R/T or E-bolt. Don't spend more money than you need to on a hopper.

go for a barrel.... or hopper....

Palmer Stabilizer/Regulator. According to Richy_C anyway. Makes for consistent shooting.

PMI regulator is one of the cheaper ones. I cant wait to get mine.

It regulates the amount of gas entering your gun, its easier on the internals, makes your gun quieter, you get a few extra shots out of a tank, and it gives you much better accuracy and less chopped balls. It can also act as a expansion chamber, just of course not as good as a real expansion chamber.

I'd Go with a PMI regulator (cheapest) or some other regulator, you will be happy with it.

But if your gonna decide on a hopper then If i were you i'd get a ricochet, i love those...they got a lcd screen with shot counter, and game timer, they look awesome I think, but they will hold about 20 less balls then a viewloader 12v. They are faster feeding then the VL12v w/o the xboard, and require only 1 9volt.

specter just get a r/t and a 12v revvy, the richocet(sp) has all of that stuff on it like the lcd screen and stuff, but i think it is just more things that could break, also at county a 12v revvy w/x-board is $56, a richocet is $86, the revvy wll feed as fast as the richocet.:D

[JorynnRace]

Actually a richochet will fire faster then a revy (x-board or not), and if u despute this, well yer just wrong. I have seen this in action. We're not talking about a huge difference, but slightly noticable. Not that it maters on a stock M98 tho. If u have R/T then get the richochet.

[tonysk83]

im tellin you if you have a r/t u will only need a 12v revvy with x-board, look at all the pros i see alot more revvys than richocets

[Meph]

See more revvys why? Hmmmmm.... oh right, I forgot... they're sponsored so they HAVE to use Revvys.

Hell, I know of a team that just sold their halos for like 80 bucks because they just got sponsored by JT... and are now forced (by forced, I mean done so to keep the sponsorship) to use the Revvys. Not too happy to give up the Halo, but the sponsorship is more important.

[ronin-san]

yeah the PMI (pure E inline) is cheaper, but it's a PIECE OF GARBAGE!

I didn't even get to use it before I had to ship it to them. the set screw fell out (binding the spring) before I could get the LP valve to seat.

screw that piece of garbage.

[tonysk83]

ok maybe im wrong, so all the pros i see r sponsored by jt,brass eagle etc. they must be paying lots and lots a money to there sponsores then:eyes:
