Hey Carl, paintball copies airsoft

Yeah, yeah, it's paintball but paintball now uses propain!

Haha

Thanks for pointing that out to me.

Looks like Tippmann has released a propane expansion (not combustion) powered pball gun. I think the cylinder under the hopper with the heat sinks is an expansion cylinder.

I'm not sure about their claim that propane is not temperature sensitive. It also has a variable equilibrium pressure set by temperature. I suspect that Tippmann may include an internal regulator to deal with some of this though. They don't need a high flow reg. Just one which can keep the expansion chamber at a consistant pressure just before each shot.

There was a heated discussion about this on Fark.com about how it would blow up and kill you, at least somebody finally came along and brought up MadMax's lovely greengas = propane finding. You sir will soon take over the propane market!

I wish...

The Tipmann pball gun works on a direct connection to a propane tank. They don't need my device.

Is this a typo? 50,000 shots/tank? That's about $2000+ worth of paintballs

With a 16-ounce tank of propane attached to the bottom line, the pump action marker can let you fire off 50,000 shots

It may look vaguely like an XM8 now, but wait till you attach the hose for the tank... or just connect the tank AND put on the god-forsaken hopper!!!

Why do folks always call propane 'ProPAIN'???

Does it hurt you more or something?

Well if he said he was spelling deficient, it would only make sense that he spelled the word incorrectly.
