VM68 Magnums

VM68 Magnums... Where are they? I haven't seen one YEARS.
What about the Burgfield International BLACK KNIGHTS?
The PATRIOT semis, where are they? I never see any of the older guns that used to be so popular.
I remember seeing on APG magazine, on the cover, a new gun called the BLADE... It was the Bad Arse highest end marker you could get. Now, a Blade is a cheapy wussy Brass Eagle marker. What happened to the Cool Blade?
Some of those old guns are still around:
Tippmann
Automag
Autocockers and Snipers
but very few others...
I remember the Vm68 was the baddest muther you could get... It sported TWO constant air bottles! Whoa... how cool was that!

yep. My friend who is like 40 something, used to tell me that when they used to play they Had VM68's, and that was the bad *** gun! if you wanted the top gun the VM68 was it. A friend of mine happened to get his hands on a VM68, and he let me shoot it a few times. let me tell you! Paintball has progressed a long time since then. The VM68 is soooooooooooo heavy! the trigger is long, and heavy. it's not the greatest gun i can tell you that.

Not the greatest gun now... but boyo - it was in its day.
You could get custom bodies for it, milling, all that snazzy stuff... They also had the best reputation for reliability and accuracy. This was when the Autococker was still a kit for your Sniper pump gun...
Heavy? Oh Yeah...


40 something... Feh! :mad:
There are a lot of good older players!
