Hey Twitcho, you have a PE tank right? What size/style is it? I just got my 68ci fiber wrapped a few days ago for $180. So far I love it, but just my friend told me that on his PE tank (68ci, Stainless, 3000 psi, adjustable reg) that the reg will unscrew from the tank. I assumed mine could too, but it won't come off. Do you know if it's supposed to?
Oh, and just to stay on topic, I'd have to say RPS. Whatever hype they put out is usually justified, and they make great paint.

Both Tippmann Ordnance and Tippmann Pneumatics have been great to me. I just got my TM-203 grenade launcher from Tippmann Ordnance Co and they are just great people. By far, the nicest people that I have dealt with in a long time. And...my TM-203 rocks! Want to see a pic of one, go to: http://www.tippmannordnance.com I mounted mine on my Pro/Carbine.

EZ8,they will hang right in there.One thing the shoot kinda,I saying kinda like a cocker.Thats only the trigger pull.Our team thats playing in the Pan Circuit in June 10 man there will be 8 of them on it.
So well see how they do.The blazer if you don't pull the trigger hard (thats if you dont have a trigger job) tou'll short stoke the marker.
But what I have seen of the marker they'll do great.

what kind of threads does it take.can it except other barrels or does palmer only make a select few? I have been thinking about trying to get into tournys and buying a highend gun in a year or two and i want a marker that will be differnt and not just the run of the mill(I do like cockers though).

Hey Gizmo, if you like JT USA it's up there, under BE. They bought them out. I know it sucks. The world is going to pot! They also own ViewLoader.

Creek

EZ8 they don't have treads,its a clamp in barrel.You can use just about any barrel if you cut off the treads,Some would have too be mill to fit.Plamers has a few barrels for them a 8,10,12.But if you buy this marker you'll see you wont need a barrel for it. Stock ones rock just as they are

Yes it can be unscrewed but dont do it. The threads are on opposite from your ASA's threads, so if you overtighten your tank into your gun, you can end up unscrewing the reg. The reg has loctite on it's threads, which means do not take it off. There's no reason you'd need to anyway, but yes it is possible

I really like Smart Parts, really great products and really great people. I guess living 45 minutes away from their building has its advantages :)

Anyone who doesn't think Smart Parts makes a bad product I have some Magic Boxes I'd like to sell you :D. I would like Smart Parts except that Gardner seems to have his head in the clouds kind of, talking about how the Shocker has such awesome range and everything. I think my favorite company now is probably AGD. They actually haven't made a bad product to the best of my knowledge (although I guess that depends on your opinion on the Warp) and they never rely on myths or gimmicks to sell their products. Speaking of myths, I like how Tom Kaye is always going to great trouble to see what is true and what is just a myth. There's a guy who won't make a claim unless he's dang well proven it. Besides, I like mags.

I would say JT. Their markers arn't the greatest, but they've dont alot in the way of apparel and protection. I wonder what % of people wear a JT mask.
