Gotta love eBay


Sorry for the angle, I was taking the picture sideways so my shadow wouldn't be in the pic. Guess the direct sunlight is a little harsh as it does not do justice to this marker!

On a whim, I decided to search for 'unknown' in the paintball section on eBay. I came up with this:

Paintball Marker ~ NEW - (eBay item 230171175443 end time Oct-02-07 14:44:19 PDT)

With that buy-it-now price, I couldn't resist. Sure enough, I got me a cheap Sterling! I aired it up and it works flawlessly. I'm digging the autotrigger and smoooooth pump action. Defintiely worth the $24.95 + shipping!

I believe I'm going to keep this one as my main pump. I have a phantom in pieces that I may resurrect and have a K-frame PGP to show-up the 'modern technology' crowd. I am about to de-whore some Sheridan brass and some assorted markers for efficiency's sake. At some point, I'll probably regret a sale or two, but thinning the herd will ultimately make things easier and provide major improvements on the ones I will keep. Money from the de-whoring will go into those pumps.
