The Pro-Lite is a semi-automatic open bolt marker. It is nearly identical to the Pro-am differing only in the materials used to make the foregrip and pistol grip. The Pro-lite used composite plastic while early Pro-Ams used cast metal foregrips and pistol grips(later Pro-Am models used composite foregrips). The difference in materials made the Pro-Lite considerably lighter than its predecessor. Like the Pro-Am the Pro-lite was designed for durability and is extremely reliable. Paintball Fields commonly used Pro-Lites as rentals because of their ease of maintenance and ability to take extreme abuse. The Mini-Lite is essentially a Pro-lite with an extra CA adpter mounted just behind foregrip.

Review:
The Tippmann Pro-lite is a very accurate dependable marker. It has nifty looks that are M16 style. This is a Marker you can count on time and time again I use my as my back up and have had tons of fun with it. It is loud so people always look to see what it is.They can be had pretty cheap used on ebay and other forums
Conclusion:
If you want a marker that always goes bang this is the one for you
Light weight and can take a real beating w/o any need for new parts
Weaknesses:
No stocks and I guess water could get in easy? LOUD!
Review:
Shoots strait and looks cute. Don't fear buying a old one the last foever! blah.
So blah and blah It uses the same barrel threads as the A-5 blah so I think everyone should have one of these around for a friend or to up you game level.
Conclusion:
A great gun as a back up or loner. few parts to break and they never do anyway.

Review:
I was walking at my local swapmeet when i saw this gun. I asked how much The dude said 50 bucks and i gladly paid him. This gun is sweet all it needed was a little oil here and there and viola!!! I have had this gun for about 7-8 months now and have lent it to friends and i also use it as my primary gun. With a different barrel, there is nothing that will stop you from dominating the other team, and with an APEX barrel you'll be all the better!!! I know this gun so well i can strip it down to every nut and bolt, then put it back together in a matter of 10 minutes (it probably helps it is very easy to take apart and clean)!!! Even though this gun is over 10 years old now, it still shoots great, and will easily outlast any gun they make on the marker right now. Although the only thing i don't like is that i burns through tank o-rings like i do a bowl of Cheerio's. Over all, if you got $60 bucks (that is what they are going for as of right now on ebay) and you wanna start paintballing.......do i even need to say it....BUY THIS GUN!!!!!!!!!!!
Conclusion:
Buy this gun!! 10/10
