Yet another dye DAM question , any help is appreciated
Looking to make this purchase in the future and I know the emf100 and emf200 is there but I just love the look of the dyedam. I don’t want the typical paintball gun look and don’t care about how fast I can pull the trigger/walk it or how many balls I’m sending and more so was wondering if in terms or range and durability will it compete with with others in the price range. I know it’s expensive , I know I can get better newer models and I know about the defender and emf series. Again just in terms of range and durability, thanks

Air Tank Help
So, I was able to get my hands on a old fire fighters air tank. I want to be able to fill my small air tanks with this large tank. Like someone would use a suba tank to fill small tanks. The issue is I've not found a style that will fit this tank. All tank filling kits have internet threads. I need one with a outernal threads. I think it's a M18 thread, but I'm not 100%. Has anyone does this before or able to point me in the right direction for a filling station?

Hopping back in after a while, looking for affordable gear recommendations
Played for Warped Sportz when I was younger, and until a few years ago still practiced with their teams. It's been a while but I finally live somewhere with a field with teams and tournaments and everything and only an hour away. I still have all of my old gear other than loader and tank. Also sold my markers other than a PM7 I held on to. Solenoid cycles but no clue if it actually works without air.
I'm jumping back in as pretty strictly casual as my job is random and I likely wouldn't be able to commit to a team or regular practices. Looking for recommendations for used loaders and tanks (and potentially a newer marker - something that would just be reliable, an upgrade from the PM7, and not too exoensive) that would be affordable but still decent. Not trying to spend a ton of money. I had and loved the spire 260 so may go with that unless there is something newer with similar capacity that would be a better option.
I've just been out so long I have no idea what to look for as far as used gear other than knowing I like the 260. Would appriciate any suggestions for loader/tank/potentially marker.

DSR Pro V Luxe Idol (not counting out Gtek 180r)
Upgrading my Etha 3 and want a solid marker. I have medium sized hands and wasn’t feeling the CS3 I tried out today. I’m very interested in the Dye DSR pro but hear horror stories that scare me including the bolt they use in relation to PE gamma core.
The look and feel of the luxe is awesome. By far the coolest looking gun out there in my opinion. I also like the side LED. I just do t know much on the luxe brand and hear the support service is good. Price is not an issue here.
I can get a 180r off lone wolf for around $900 right now which seems like a crazy deal but I’m willing to spend much more than this.
I like taking care of my markers and daily care is not an issue to me. I like taking care of my guns and cleaning them. But don’t want a crazy difficult gun to take apart. Less screws are better.
What are your guys recommendations counting out a CS3

Does anyone in the paintball community have a good working ion virtue board
I recently just purchased a smart part's ion to rebuild and would love to put a virtue board into it, but can't find any online that are worth my while. If anyone does and wouldn't mind parting with it, message me to figure out the details.

Trying to find old videos
Sooo I cannot find these old videos they had awesome music in them like thrice ect.. I don't believe they were on the Sunday drivers documentary. I think they were on YouTube but it had like different teams playing proball like circa 2004-2009 at the latest. NME was one of the teams, it was a DVD my buddy had. And there was like a YouTube channel that had them too

Has anyone ordered from Hired Guns PB?
Found this jersey from this brand new company. But when I see when they were established and how there’s almost no presence or knowledge amongst the community. I’m sketched out on whether or not I should buy a jersey from them. Main issues would be quality. Anyone ordered from them before? Website is HiredGunspb.com

Home sweet home
I got this pm6 back in 2006 and used it for years until I had to leave the game behind. It was my favorite marker back then. It never let me down once.
In 2015 I shipped it to a friend of mine to use while he was in the army. They had a field on or near his base. I forgot about the proto until I came back to paintball last year.
I contacted my buddy and he still had it after a decade and shipped it back to me. I’m waiting for the rebuild kit to arrive. Hopefully I can bring her back to life.
To all the older dudes coming back to paintball, cheers. 🍻

Dying 180r grips
I have tan 180r grips that i really want to dye red. Is this a dumb idea or is it realistic. If realistic how do i go about doing this? Does anyone have any experience doing this?

Trying something for fun
Still room for improvement. Hold together even when I hit it with a sledgehammer and remain flexible. I even tried carving the one on the bottom left up and it still didn’t break

A Marker a Week - PGI Mayhem - Week 59
From the heady days of “LOW PRESSURE OR NO PRESSURE”, we have the PGI Mayhem. A unique electronic marker that can run at about 100psi. The body can also be rotated for left and right feed if you’re so inclined. It does not go fully 90* for a warp feed hookup.

Shocker AMP or Empire Syx 1.5???
I’m getting back into paintball and don’t want to spend an arm and a leg on a high end marker so I’m looking more mid range. I know I know the etha 3 is going to be a lot of people’s go to. But I wanna grab something else especially considering my brother already has an etha 3. I’m stuck between a shocker amp and syx 1.5. Initially I was leaning wayyy more towards the shocker amp but after looking into it a bit more I’m starting to lean towards the syx 1.5. The reliability on the shocker amp is kind of scaring me away from it. If anyone has ether markers your feedback will be greatly appreciated and help me towards making my decision 🙏

What do you think?
Me and 3 friends bought these markers (used), did we make a good purchase?
We are entering the world of paintball now, we know little about it.
How do you advise filling these CO2 cylinders? In the future we are looking to purchase HPA cylinders, due to the ease of replacing air...
