Any update on if Lapco is making a barrel for the MR5?

lmartin · 03-07-2013, 03:51 PM

they made a prototype already. i spoke to them last night and it seems as if they are going ahead with it. just trying to work out some details with them and then hopefully it is a go.

Thanks for the quick response and even tho this mr5 is driving me crazy ur guys customer service is top notch!

I think we are going to have to start calling out the brands of paint that are too small and call out the brands that are big enough for the stock detents.

I'm hearing lots of love for Valken paint as the paintball closest to 687.
I'm hearing lots of negative for Procaps/GI sports.

Let me hear what brands are not working for you and what brands do work in your mags.

I use Procaps paint and I don't have any problem with the stock detents.
it is small and it does have a large chrono difference from FS rounds, But I think the Procaps paint is more accurate.

Is all of Procaps labels working? Did you happen to notice how big the paint is?

capitalpaintball · 03-08-2013, 10:06 AM

all Procaps paint is small with the exception of Frostbite.
I was using DXS Field Rec-sport. its small but I had no doubling issues or rollouts. And it shot better then FS rounds.

not trying to get totally off topic but the only time i have problems with it is when im using FS rounds with the MAG.... dont have problems with hopper feeding or normal bombz paint through the mag

scribbleheli · 03-08-2013, 02:53 PM

I use the Qloader. And have the prewinds down to about 8 now to stop double feeds and chops which has helped a lot.
My question about the detents is/are, the detent is held in with the barrel oring right?
Is there supposed to be anything else keeping the detent more inside the barrel. because mine is pushed out of the way VERY easily. My paint to bore match is fairly close.. and Im even temped to put a tiny piece of foam and tape it down so the detent is a tiny bit harder to move.
Bad idea??

And back on topic.
The Rifled barrel, if and when it goes through. How will the rifled barrel affect normal paint.

my current set up is, qloader with paint on stock barrel with apex2 stuck on the end.
And mag fed FS rounds. And I put the Apex2 to "off"
