Tactmark DMR Sniper

Hey guys, this is my new Tactmark DMR. I have been frantically trying to get it set up for an up coming scenario game. I'm pretty happy so far although I haven't field tested it yet. I added a egrip, qloader, helmet cam, ops gear sling. Let me know what you think. Rich A.

That is sweet, were you able to get the e-grip to work properly? Milsig has a boxmag prototype for this marker right now, they are looking to get it produced.

Go to Youtube and type MILSIG.

The egrip has worked great so far, It fit and functioned perfectly. I just watched the video of the box mag. Looks good see what the retail price is going to be.

I'm a big fan of those Tactmarks, FAR nicer then any cRAP4 mag-fed guns. Plus, they use mostly A-5 parts, so repairs are nice and easy.

What sort of speed can you get out of that mag?

Gimmie a few minutes alone with the Palmer catalog and I'll get back to you again.

You do realize that the Tactmark DMR, the Rap4 T68 Gen5, and the Trinity M18 are ALL the same marker, made at the same factory, and made with the same parts? They're just re-branded differently for sale in the US. Tactmark often uses that fact as a selling point, and though they claim to be the "original" the fact is that they were just the first to rebrand the markers.

I know. But cRAP4 dumped the Gen5 and Trinity was just a limited run deal (They bought a few hundred halves from HGP to see how it would go). Tactmark has also changed to Milsig Canada. There's a bit more to it then that, but I'd have to dig through a few pages over on Canadian Scenario Players and the GLCF, but I'm too lazy (Suffice to say that some Tactmark/Milsig reps have been over there explaining stuff).

I'll give you that; plus RAP4 had terrible policies and customer service on them.

I have to say, my T68 Gen4 is still nicer than my Tactmark, but again that's no thanks to RAP4; it's their parent companies doing. Trinity cheaped out on aftermarket parts too.

You got the Gen4, do you have any problems with air leaking down the barrel or a low velocity?

Nothing that a spring kit couldn't fix. I had to put in something with a different tension to use c02 with a flexi-air stock because it had recocking issues with the stock spring (not with HPA), and leaked down the barrel with a stronger one.

I was so close to ordering a rap4 gen5 . Then a buddy told me a local shop stared carrying the tactmark line. So far so good customer service has been great. They upgraded everyones velocity adjusters for free! every time i go to the shop they always want feedback on how the marker is working. the new Milsig k-series is looking pretty sweet check it out on you tube.

As for the E grip it was working inconsistently at the senario game on the weekend. I've been reading about the mods to fix it on the rap4 forum. I had a few chops and I'm used to cleaning my cocker or viking. The halfshell design is a pain in the @$$ compared to standard milled designs.
