Kingmann would appear to have hitched their wagon to a Plummeting Star
which will soon hit the ground with a resounding THUD!

.68 cal and the gun would sell; although just how well is another story.

I know here in Canada, insurance reg.s and relative cost of the Ryder
needed for a commercial field to support this caliber just make this gun
cost prohibitive.

And fields that are Field Paint Only aren't going to carry special .43 caliber paint on the off chance the someone with this gun might show up.

Also, go to the site and watch their video of the guys playing on a speed ball field.

They're just chasing each other around the field and missing at 10 feet away basically. Put that gun against 68 caliber? Forget about it.

small caliber vs small caliber.... Looks like fun. But mixed? Nope.

I did the 43 cal thing for several years. They wont stand up to the distance or velocity of a 68 cal thats for sure. I would however LOVE for my local to have 43 cal pistol only weekends, one where every swinging Richard and Jane plays with one of these. You guys gotta admit that would be a hoot!

I loved playing with my RAP4 but I had to get good and close it was tough going.

If they were only 0.070" larger in diameter, they would be so amazing that it would change how the game is played and people would call it Paintball 2.0 and it would change the world!

Alas, it can't hold a candle to even the subpar, ancient, pathetic .68 caliber of Paintball 1.0.

I got to handle these Kingman pistols, but not shoot them. They're pretty cool, and I'd love to play a .43 caliber game! But not in the woods; I bet you could hide behind ferns and be totally protected.
