Post those collections ladies and gents

I'll be adding my grail marker shortly to the family, a 2k2 Dragon Timmy Green/Black fade.

Came back this year. Nostalgia hit hard and the collection is growing. Show off them collections. 👀

Tips and tricks

Anything I should be aware of when it comes to old school SP sft shockers? Just grabbed my first one and I'm wondering if there's anything I need to know when it comes to working on them and maintaining them

Fellow new/returning players, remember to paint check!

Finally played last Sunday and there were three times I called myself out and the ball didn't actually break. Two were in a respawn game so it was whatever, but don't be like me lol. A little PSA before the weekend.

What do you guys think about the Dye CZR+ coming out along with a composite UL-I

I saw the video about this composite barrel that take PWR inserts and it will be included with the dye czr+ coming out on November 4. What do you guys think? I think it’s interesting and would be worth it if it’s really cheap. I’m more excited to see the new czr. The last czr seems to have a good reputation and it would be interesting to see if it comes macro line free to be a closer competitor to the etha.

After a 15 year hiatus, I'm planning a return!

As the title suggests, a couple long time good friends and I have all decided collectively to get back into the sport. We played together for years until we all got too busy with life. Finally we all have the time and resources to get back into it.

With that being said, our old markers of the past etek3, Proto reflex and the likes are fossils. I'm needing advice on a solid marker.

Looking at the used market, something in the 400 - 700 range. I've had my eye on Luxe X, TM40, Shocker AMP and 170r.

Any advice on a marker and mask would be highly appreciated.

Ps. We're in the Tampa, Florida area for anyone with local gear for sale. Or just wants to link up for some rec-ball.

Pss. Myself and some others played for our University teams; UCF and USF.

Tippmann 98’s

Hello. Have two Tippmanns that are in good condition but about 20 years old now. Worth selling with the rest of our kit or just take to the recycle bin?

Thanks

Used to older mechanical guns not sure how to get this Etek going.

I have an empire halo 2 set up with the higher feed speed and sensitivity it’s feeding just fine. If I manually cock the bolt back it’ll feed 1 ball. After I fire the bolt doesn’t go back far enough to refeed. The eye senses the ball just fine when I manually function the bolt. It’s a purple flashing mode.

Fixable? Empire axe 1.0

Was messing around with the trigger adjustments and overtightened it. Can this part be replaced without replacing the whole board?
