How much would you pay for a weapon like this?
Or this.

I was scanning for a new boomstick barrel when i found this guys e-bay store. I proceeded to drool uncontrolably, and began thinking about bidding on one. I currently have a nice spyder with some moddifications, but im always in the market for a badass new toy if its at a good price. I also play with a group of guys and random targets, i mean people we find that may not have gear but want to play, so having the extra weapon, my old spyder, lying about might be nice.
A video of it being fired.

Notice the kick even with the Co2 tank foward mounted. I would use a remote line naturally. Im really tempted to get it but i want to know how accurate it is and so forth and i cant seem to find out. If anyone has information, be it you've used one or know of a friend who knows a guy who saw it fired. Im just looking for accuracy info, rate of fire looks good to me.

Link? Price?
I knew of a gun back in the day that was a 20 round magazine fed .68cal paintball gun. It was something like $1,400. I like this one because i can adapt my current gear to work with it. I dont need to get mag holders, which were probably custom. Granted i would go to Army surplus and get some real ones and mod them to work.

I payed a visit to the Armotech forums and read what people wherre saying. One man said exactally what i wanted to here.
He said that it was accurate at close and far ranges. He also said; "the marker shoots far, really far".
Read some more after that and it sounds like a nice weapon. I think after this payday i will bid on one. Nothing but praise for there tech support on there forums as well. Sounds like a good deal if i can get them for 300 or so considering retail is around 500.

NICE! Those are the guns we used at Fort Knox! biggrin:
The only thing is they are too much like the real thing, and don't have advanced paintball gun features, like a hopper. My gun has one, and I dunno what I'd do without it. It keeps the balls from clogging in the barrel.

Yeah i saw it... Did a quick double take, then started looking for info. Simulated kick and the accuracy are what finally sold me. I wanted something to remind me of my old M-16 A2, which by the way they make in a paintball gun!
ARMOTECH:
WG-65-A1 :m-16 A1 Replica
Wg-65-A2 :m-16 A2 Replica
Wg-65 :M-4 Replica
Anything above the 65 is a varient with differant fetures but still looks like a M-4.
Its a standard paintball gun Joe. You can use a hopper.
They also make a nice handgun, and a series of MP5's.
