Now we all know the less air you use the more shots and better consistency you get. This is a quick guide to help you get the most of your fills…

What you need:
– Gun
– Air (Co2 or N2)
– About 200 paintballs (1 hopper)
– Allen wrenches (different guns use different size wrenches, so just get a set of all sizes)
– Chronograph (for fine tuning)

Step one
Turn your velocity all the way out. Then turn it two turns in.

Step two
Turn your regulator and LPR (if you have one) as far out as possible

Step three
Slowly turn the reg up a quarter turn then take two or three shots, make note of your velocity

Step four
As soon as the velocity starts to go down then turn the reg back 1/8 and your set to go

*NOTE* To time the LPR on a cocker, you hold down the trigger so the back block is back then turn it until it hits the cocking rod, then just turn it like 1/4 turn after that to be good.

The New Year is coming (2007, if you’re not keeping track). I thought it’d be most appropriate to review the 2005 Angel Speed. What sets a good paintball gun apart from the other wannabes is its reliability. The 2005 Angels Speed has been out for about three years now, and it’s been through heaven and hell on the paintball field. I, personally, have heard good and bad things regarding WDP’s speed machine. Hopefully you won’t get suckered into all the manufacturer’s marketing gimmicks claiming world records and useless features and spending an extra $500 on it.

Read the 2005 Angel Speed review and see if compares to the paintball guns in this age or not.

On behalf of the sport of Paintball, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from PaintballGuns.net 🙂

I hope to serve you this upcoming new year by providing fresh and hot new regarding paintball guns and equipment.

Peace be with you all.

The Dye DM5 and DM6

Firstly, I unleashed reviews on the Dye DM5, Dye DM6, and the new Tippmann X7. Each one of these guns have had one of the highest publicity ever on the paintball market. Dye’s DM5 and DM6 are well known for their easy maintenance and excellent accuracy.

Tippmann X7

The new Tippmann X7, although, has already had high acclaims for its versatility. In other words, it’s very likely that the X7 will be the new 98 custom – as far as upgrades goes. Tippmann quotes that there are “1000 different looks”.

Paintball Games

Also, more paintball and non-paintball games have been added to our games section. Check it out.

Til’ next time.

As many of you probably know, the new Proto Matrix 2007, or PM7, has been released. Yes of course it’s going to look slimmer and more l33t; but what about the PM6? There have been only minor internal adjustments to Proto’s new release. Proto, as well as every other paintball marker manufacturer, focuses more on the physical looks of the gun, so it seems as if there bigger changes to the newer model than you think. Oh, and they jack the price up $400 more just for kicks. My theory involves the idea that there really isn’t much to the PM7 other than the looks, so why not go with the PM6? Now, I’m not saying that the PM7 isn’t a great gun… It sure is. Quite honestly it does look very attractive – but is it worth the money? That’s for you to decide.

In the mean time, read up on the 2006 Proto Matrix, and see if that won’t quench your urge.

The Kingman Spyder is the most popular paintball gun on the market.  It has been for the last decade.  Why is this?  It’s not because it has the fastest ROF (rate of fire) record, or the best beam-breaking eyes… It’s because of its upgrade availability.  Kingman Spyders have that unique capability to have the crap kicked out of it and still shoot fine the next day.  Because of this, creative paintballers have gone to work, trying to find some way to get tweak or mod the gun to get the best bang for their buck.  We’ve published a trigger mod mod for the Kingman Spyder.  The mod is applicable to most of the Spyders available on the market right now.  It’s fairly simple, and its effects are tremendous.  It’ll increase your rate of fire up to twice as fast.
