Need Rebel Help? Look no further!
 

I dont have my Rebel anymore, but it treated me well and to many exciting games. Rebels are simple markers, similar to all your standard blowbacks. Ex) Spyders, Piranhas, Ect. They have basically the same design. The trigger is pulled, the sear releases the hammer. Air then travels to the bolt. AS the hammer goes forward, the bolt does as well. The pressure kicks the bolt back into the cocked position after every shot. If you have any questions about Rebels, and rebels only, post them here.

Rebel LE
 

I just bought a Rebel Limited Edition, and as this is my first decent marker, I want to be able to take care of it correctly. Could I get a few tips or pointers on cleaning and oiling it, so as to keep it going in pristene condition? Thanks alot for your help!!:cool:

Rebel Le aftermarket bolt question
 

this is i think a hard one to answer but i really need to know. Not too long ago a part of my bolt broke on my le, and i just ordered a aftermarket bolt the (Shocktech Spyder Quick Strip Venturi Bolt) and i just found out that the new bolt doesnt fit in the le's striker when my bro tested his in mine, what do i do?!?! it costed too much to be a waste! HELP!

Re: Rebel LE
 

I am not too familiar with LE's but with mine, after each day of play, I oil and clean the bold, hammer, and sear. I whipe off the outside to keep it shiney. Before i play, I take off the barrel and run a few drops of oil throuh the gun (about 30 Shots), and i squeggee my barrel, to get rid of any unwanted things. Hope I helped!

Rebel LE bolt
 

I've had my Rebel LE for a few months and have dealt with many issues regarding parts and operation. When I first started using the gun without a Revy, I chopped so many paintballs that I decided upon purchasing a Shocktech Spyder Quickstrip Bolt also. I figured that since the LE is rear cocking and accepts Spyder barrels, that it would also accept the bolt -- WRONG. I live near Paintball-Online.com, so I went there with my LE and tried out the Shocktech -- it didn't fit lengthwise and the pin to the striker was too big. Once I got my Spyder Compact, I confirmed the fact that Spyder bolts do not fit the Rebel LE. The overall length, bolt/striker pin location, and gas inlet hole are all different on the two different bolts. I think the only solution is to buy a factory replacement. Good luck

Thanks for your help dude.... :peace:

Shoot further?
 

Hey, i have a black rebel vertical with a 14 inch terminator barrel. I get good range and love the gun, but i was wandering if u know any good upgrades to get me more distance. Thanx pillsbury

if you are using c02 i would get an expansion chamber, if i am wrong, please correct me. But i think an expansion chamber would be good so your shots will be consistant and wont shoot different distances and have velocity spikes. Besides that, i dont know much other things to help you get more distance, besides low pressure but i dont know how to do that. If i was wrong on any of this...... please correct me. Thanks.

I am a complete newbie to paintball, and I know I sound really naive, but what is a revy as referenced in an earlier post?
what does it do and what is the estimated cost? .. thanks

a revvy is a Revolutionary hopper. It has little motors that feed the balls into the gun faster so you dont chop paintballs. they are about 40-50 $$

thanks man i appreciate it. so would any rebel LE owners strongly recommend getting a revy or am I okay without it??

you might want to get one, i dont have one for my rebel, but if you shoot really fast you might want one to prevent (or mostly prevent) chopping a ball. I am about to get one i think, it wouldnt be a bad idea to get one, but it might not be nessessary, so u might not want to. k, hoped i helped, peace.:blah:

Revy for Rebel LE
 

After my experiences with the Rebel LE, I would highly suggest getting a Revolution. The side-mounted vertical feed doesn't seem to stack enough balls for any amount of sustained rapid fire. Other Rebel models with the powerfeed probably don't have the same problem because there is a stack of balls in the powerfeed, elbow, and hopper neck ready to go. Because the side-mounted vertical feed is so short on the Rebel LE, basically what you have is what is in the hopper neck and maybe 2 more in the vertical feed. I played for a while without one and chopped plenty of balls, but the Revolution helped stop that.
If I were you, I'd play for a while to see if you have a problem chopping balls. If not, why spend the money if you don't need to?

Okay, thanks.. are there any other modifications I can
make to the Rebel LE in order to maximize efficiency and
minimize problems that may occur frequently with the gun?

Other than the chopping balls thing, I really haven't had any major problems with the Rebel LE. I got a new barrel which improved accuracy and quieted it down. Other than that, just make sure you don't lose the feed plug.
Have fun!

powerfeed block
 

Does anyone know where i can buy a powerfeed block online

check 888 paintball

expansion chamber
 

Will an expansion chamber that fits a Spyder Compact 2000 (foregrip and bottomline system) work on a 32 degrees rebel? thanks
Marc

Most likely. I have a 32* 6 stage on mine and I have seen them on model 98s and other markers. I am almost positive it will work, Check with other people also though.
