BPS? Why can't paintballers use BPM so I can compare it with real guns.

I have my Matrix just like Ivan... the whole issue is that the Trix is now the fad gun.

The only full auto angels are the old LCDs and G-chipped angels(Only fit 90* frames) I believe...

stop being dumb and just multiply it by 60

hydralisk: yea, but you can get a something called a ripdrive (or something) that lets you shoot slightly more balls then trigger pulls. for example, if youre shooting 12bps, the gun will actually fire 14 bps, and so on.

Technically that isn�t a �stock class� gun. Stock Class is a gun that has a parallel with the barrel 10 ball tube feed and can only take the 12 gram c02 carts, and of course the pump.

true, but its the closest thing to it thats still in production.

edit: for aztec- my hopper feeds at 1,080 bpm, which is *about the same speed I shoot

that angel can probably reach about 1,800 bpm, while mine (in its current condition) reaches about 1,500

is that better?

Ivan · 2004-10-13, 10:16 PM

Check out the list, still a lot in production.

Umm, RipDrive is a modification for the Halo that allows you to manually crank the balls out of your hopper when it runs out of batteries... No such thing for an angel..

I'm not trying to be an asshole, but shooting 1080 bpm would be incredibly hard. It is tough to reach 18 bps without a ton of practice(without bounce), and you would be refilling your egg 5 times in one minute. Sustaining 18 for a whole minute is next to impossible without illegal trigger bounce...

Personaly Id prefer that stock was the only gun around. That would be sweet, I hate playing speedball anymore when these kids go out on the field with a case in guppys and comes back after 1 game with none left. The moment you start to move a 100 balls fly right at you. Its really no skill anymore, just who has more money. Stock takes skill and paitence(sp?)

Indeed, though I have heard of cheat boards for the Angle and numerous other guns.

And according to Smart Parts, Their gun has a manufacturing flaw that sometimes allows the guns to shoot hot.

One of there teams got disqualified cause their shockers where shooting hot and they said something like that in a Press release.

So basically they tried to say it wasn�t the team that was cheating it was the gun�s fault and it just part of the gun�

Very true. It is even effecting tourny games. There are rumors going around that some tourny owners might start putting a cap on BPS in their tournies.

I wouldn't mind it. I'm not a paint whore. I don't shoot more than 350-400 paintballs a game even in tournaments...

Ivan · 2004-10-13, 10:55 PM

I think a nice 16 to 18 bps cap would be right.

I practice walking my trigger all day, every day. I know you couldnt get 18 bps for a minute straight, its impossible, but Im just saying that because 18 bps x 60= 1080 bpm.

eh, I got terms mixed up.

Im a mega paint whore, but I play back, so I have a reason to. its my job to stand there and lay down paint as fast as possible.
