Tippmann X7 Phenom


This paintball gun from Tippmann is the complete package. The Tippmann X7 Phenom is tournament ready: it's equipped with the E-Grip, there are endless upgrades and accessories available and with the flexibility of a mechanical marker (and of couse the durability we expect when buying Tippmann) the X7 Phenom is in a class of its own.

The Tippmann X7 Phenom is much more accurate and efficient than I expected. I attribute this to the FlexValve Technology that opperates at under 300 PSI which means you won't wast your air wether your useing the manual or electronic firing modes. The FlexValve Technology allows you to shoot 1400 shots with a 68 cubic inch 4500 PSI tank. So you don't loose any accuracy whlie gaining this efficiency the Tippmann X7 Phenom has a Spool Valve design killing the recoil (which improves accuracy).

Along with the E-Grip, FlexValve Technology, and Spool Valve design the Tippmann X7 Phemon also sheads about 3inches and 3.92LBS and shooting up to 20BPS this maker fades the line between speedball and woodsball.

Tippamann A-5 Stealth


Looking to play woods ball? The Tippmann A-5 Stealth is the gun you've been waiting for! With new features not available on the standard A-5 and modifcations made to barrel, hopper, and coil this Tippmann A-5 Stealth sets a new standard for not only woods ball but all markers.

The new curved barrell puts spin on the balls allowing the A-5 Stealth to be the most accurate marker in its class. This Flatline barrell also increases the rang of this marker dramatically. Distance and accuracy not enough? Got a need for speed? The A-5 Stealth has you covered here too. The wide mouth hopper using a rotating air powered sprocket featured on this marker will allow you to unload faster than ever before, espeacialy if you add a response trigger or e-grip. These features also come into play when you use the A-5 Stealth as a snipper (which can be done with just a couple minor changes).

The remote coil has a valve on the tank end which allows you to turn off the gas before you unscrew the tank (no more annoying spray!) It also has a quick disconnect on the marker end to allow you to remove the hose from the gun when you are not using it.

The only negative thing I have heard on this Tippmann marker is that the flatline barrel requires 2 different size hex keys to remove the 3 screws to detach it. This makes it almost impossible to change out while in the field.

Bottom line this is the best woods ball on the market today.
