| Review: |
When i orderd the gun I waited 3 days and then it didnt come because UPS will not delivera "firearm" unless there is somebody there to sign for it. So this kind of pissed me off.
When i got the gun i was very pleased one the machineing and accuricy. I also was amazed on how light it was for how big it was. This thing is huge it is over a foot long! I thought it would be smaller. I cant find a holser to fit it. Over all I am very plaesed with it.
Oh there was one other weakness use alot of oil and goes through o-ring like no other or it leaks. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I like this product I encorage u to purchase it. |

| Review: |
When I frist saw this gun online it looked sweet. When it arrived I though it was a little bigger then I was expecting but I wasn't disapointed. It is a nice looking hand gun thats for sure. I have taken mine apart a few times now and have had no trouble getting it back together. The manual could be better. While shooting it has a nice feel. I find it easy to aim and has really good travel on the ball. One thing I do find is it is hard to get my fingers in between the ribs at the back to initialy cock the gun. Plus it has a strong spring which added to that.
Now initially I used co2 cartridges and after nearly going broke replacing air cartridges and o-rings I made my own bottom lines using a dummy cartridge and tippmann asa's. It works great. I have both my delta 68's set up that way now and run them with remotes.
|
|
| Conclusion: |
I like the look of this marker. It screams bad ass. But as much as I like it I would recomend something like a core-zx. WHY? Because its cheaper and you can add a bottomline to it way easier. Personally I like the gun, its well made, looks good, and for its few faults is worth consideration. I give it an 8 because it isn't bottomline ready. |

| Review: |
This is a paperweight masquerading as a paintball gun. Do not waste your money on this poorly-designed piece of equipment. I have yet to get it to work for more than a few shots.
I have been using paintball guns for a long time, and finally decided to buy this gun as my backup weapon. Wow, was I in for a ride. I don't know how much people were paid to write the good reviews on here, but this is a lackluster piece of equipment that just plain does not work. Calls to the manufacturer's support line are conveniently/routinely "dropped." I have yet to get any assistance in rectifying this situation, so I'm assuming it's never going to be fixed.
This gun is impossible to use. When one puts a CO2 cartridge in it, the first thing it does is completely discharge through the barrel. Since I've only shot the weapon three times (that's THREE total shots in its LIFETIME), I can only conclude that something is wrong with the design. I've taken it apart, replaced all the seals, and re-assembled using the POOR / LOUSY diagram that came with the gun. Even still, same results. When calling support, they claim it's my fault and that I didn't assemble the weapon properly. Tell that to my Tippman 98 Custom, my Tippmann A-5, and my JT TAC-5, all of which I comfortably field-strip and clean without incident...
I cannot stress strongly enough that this device is flawed in design, and that the company JT is absolutely uncaring about this situation. If you buy this gun, you will be stuck with a lemon. Kudos to the people who have a working one, because something must be wrong with yours to get it working in the first place!! |
|
| Conclusion: |
Absolute piece of junk - do not buy!! |

| Review: |
I bought this gun over the internet (paid $150)when it first came out. I really liked the agressive looks and styling of this gun. However, I was somewhat dissapointed when it arrived because it was huge! the internet pictures do not do this thing any justice. If you don't mind lugging around a large sidearm, than this gun may be for you. The day it arrived I bought some CO2 cartridges and loaded up the mag with paint. A little hint- I put a piece of black electrical tape over the end cap of the mag so I never lost it on the field. The gun shot very well and was suprisingly accurate. 12 gram CO2 cartridges last 25- 35 shots. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This gun is worth $150, but no more than that. It has its pros and cons. I sold mine about a year after i owned it. I felt like i could move around a lot better without it. Don't get me wrong, this thing has saved my but plenty of times. If you like having a backup gun and dont mind the extra weight, than buy this gun, it works. |

| Review: |
After much criticism I have heard about paintball pistols I have decided to give the delta 68 a well deserved chance. Upon receiving the gun by mail I already had high expectations on its potential, out of the box the pistol worked like a charm, no chopped balls, no double feeding and changing CO2 cartridges is a breeze and can be executed correctly in a matter of seconds by estimating the 45 degree angle mentioned in the instructions on the angle the cartridge meets the puncture pin. But once it came to clock its velocity it was quite a disappointment for me to find it only firing at a max of 220 FPS on the stock spring, so I went to my local paintball shop and the mechanic was nice enough to give me a stronger main spring for it for free, unknown of the brand of spring but the velocity sky rocketed to an astounding 295 FPS!!! while still maintaining at least 25-30 shots per cartridge. From there forward battle after battle the Delta 68 proved superior in terms of backup when your primary fails and as a last stand when it's you against insurmountable odds, the Delta 68 delivers a punishing blow to the enemy as well as a message to them that you will not go down so easily and not without a heavy fight and will stand by your side at the ready to see things through to the bitter end. |
|
| Conclusion: |
In my closing I say this, if you are looking for a backup weapon and have a pistol in mind, may the Delta 68 be the first on your list, you will not be disappointed and will prove every penny's worth on the battlefield. I give this product a 9 because it could still use some minor modifications before it has my vote of a 10 but nonetheless it's a great pistol and it serves its purpose as a sidearm. |

| Review: |
I just bought this pistol to play just for fun and target practice. I used it with reballs and the magazine doesn't jam. The accuracy is preety good for a pistol and i like how the velocity is externally adjustable. I get about 30 shots out of a 12 gram on 215 fps which is a good amount. The only thing i don't like is that it is kind of big and heavy but weight doesn't influence me. I play in tennis court converted into a reball field and my friend bought some bunkers. It's really fun to play with just pistols cuz we all have one. I'd recommend to get extra magazines or a 10 round tube because its hard to fill when you're under pressure during the game. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This pistol is great as a sidearm or to just play around with. |

Some people have recommended the stronger spyder spring.. uses more Co2 however, whatever works for the player though. |

Easy to load (paint and air), pretty accurate, aint picky about paint, good mobility. |

One of my firing pins has fallen out... watch those pins. |
|
| Review: |
Overall, I love this gun. It is a very handy addition when on the field (woodsball), very handy in quick rushes when my massive tippmann gun just won't let me move that much. Everyone who sees it loves it, I get alot of compliments on it... the rear velocity is pretty neat, a good feature, the pistol loads fine and shoots fine, CO2 is easy to load once you get used to the clamp. It's pretty easy to carry around to, not heavy or anything...the only problem I've had with it is that one of my firing pins fell out while filming a english video (lol yeah not even playing a game), and that stopped the gun from working completely. However, the part isn't that pricey, I just need to order it, and I guess next time I'll put some electrical tape over those darn pins. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Little guy has alot of cool features, it's not practical for speedball probably, but for woodsball, it's very handy. I havn't tried the other pistols out there, but this is a good one for sure! if you play commander or carry a sniper or support gun, a good sidearm is a must! |

| Review: |
I just bought my first side arm today Jul 15/06, I was at paintball adventures and saw the pistol on the wall got an excellent price and had to give it a try needless to say I was very impressed by it, very accurate and consistant, lightweight for its size (aluminium body cuts down on weight huge) and easily reloadable. the only down side is the cost to keep the damn thing shooting ( AHHHH disposable cartriges) but I am currently looking into a dummy cartrige and remote line for it. all in all this is an excellent pistol for beginners or amateur player alike. Pick one up today at your local pro shop or Field SUPPORT YOU LOCAL FIELD AND PLAY SAFE |
|
| Conclusion: |
I gave it a 9 only because it needs a dummy Co2 tank and a remote line |

| Review: |
this gun isn't entirely useless even tho it has plastic hammer parts, it is vary heavy, it is slightly over sized, and it has a bad habit of double cocking. It has reasonable rang for a pistol even if it holds 10-12 shots and can only shot 30-50 shots using one CO2 cartridge. |
|
| Conclusion: |
All in all this gun is good for curtain paintballer depending on the type of weapon that he/she is holding. It is Perfect if you are a sniper or a covert paintballer. |
