We settled on Saturday June 17th for the SMG game.

Wanna-Play Paintball, 10 Capitol Hill Rd, Dillsburg, PA 17019

If you don't have an SMG, one will be provided to you.

Tippmann SMGs only. Plus whatever weird stuff Tom brings along from his dungeon.

Great! I'm in.

🤔2.5 hour drive, I might try to attend. I don't own one, but if there are loaners available I'd be interested in trying one. I've always been curious about these markers.

Paint- are the plastic clips that hold the paint together original? Seems like you might be able to 3D print those. Where do you find .62 cal paint these days?

Air- Looks like they're running on HPA in the video? Do they require anything special, like a Ninja SHP reg?

[netsurferdude2]

Guns, tanks, and paint will be provided. Maybe toss a few bucks to the paint man.

.62 is no longer made. We are shooting up the last of what's left.

The tanks are set up for higher pressure output. I think the guns run at 1000psi input or higher maybe?

Maybe bring some kind of satchel or something to hold the stripper clips.

Basically an anti stock class day.

It's still baffling to me that nobody had made a .50 conversion for these yet. 3D print some new stripper clips and sleeve the barrel. Boom.

Bret and I were discussing this yesterday and through his testing, the .50 cal paintballs dont have enough mass for the system to work.

[Toestr]

What does the mass of the paint have to do with cycling?

[netsurferdude2]

I believe you need to lower the amount of air hitting the ball to get them at a useable velocity. The decreased air hitting that ball doesn't leave enough pressure behind the ball to activate the feed paw to cycle the stripper clip to the next slot.

Unfortunately I'm gonna miss this one. Family reunion that day.
