Durasteel like the windows on the ships in Star Wars. It's completely clear and will withstand a Mynock sucking on it.

I'm a big fan of stainless steel for the durability, but there really isn't much wrong with aluminum.

splattttttt · 10-06-2007, 09:18 PM

Brass. Just brass.
Why is it no one makes them like this any more?
Oh, yea. Mucho $$$

BRASS

all other materials are inferior.

Seriously, brass and stainless with alumininum in nonfriction areas

Aluminum all the way. I like brass, but for finish, durability, and weight, nothing beats aluminum guns. Brass is heavy, is hard to finish well in a variety of colors, and can tarnish easily.

Wood, maybe with some metal here and there for looks.

aluminum is so far the best material to make paintball guns out of. light, hard enough to take abuse but easy to work on.
