I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

ehhh..... viewloader makes some "ok" stuff i wouldnt put them at the top of the market..... i got an kingman (spyder) AMG LCD electric gun (semi auto, 3 and 6 round burst, and full auto) as far as barrels im not positive whats compatable with the VL's, i have kingman 14inch, smartparts all american 16 inch, and a stonecold 20 inch.

are you playing speed ball(indoor) or jungle ball (outdoor) let me know and ill look for you

i could tell you more but i dont look into the other brands but i know VL makes some ill hoppers cause i got the electric hopper and its badass

im gonna upgrade to the Tippman A5 with a flatline

mmm, i gots a old skool tipman 98 custom. with some 14" barrel. it works pretty good.just search for paintball on yahh and go to some stores. they should have a link with the manufacture of your gun upon which you click and it should have links to accesories and stuff like that.

man, i want an A5, especially with a flatline.mmm

A buddy of mine has 2 A-5s and they are kewl as shit. I myself bought a 98 when I was like 13 for like $130 but now they have em in wal-mart. I used to play a lot but not so much anymore. I put an Armason Stealth barrel on mine but it isn't too stealthy...loud as ever.

http://www.xpaintball.com - good site, the sites not really put together that well but you get some pry good deals, thats where i got my gun from and i was pretty satisfied with the service.

mines the AMG LCD, theres an AMG and the AMG LCD, LCD is the electric model...and if i were you id stay away from electric guns unless you know what your doing and can be able to work on them because theyre high maintenence...

i play more outdoor than indoor...(nebraska).... so your decision on a gun should be more for what your playing..if your going a5 you wont be dissapointed heres what i can tell you about it...

the one im going to go with is the tippmann A-5 stealth marker, its got a .68 caliber, semi-auto, its compatible with CO2, compressed air, and nitrogen, hopper hopper holds 200 balls, the hopper set up on them are bad ass, loads 17 balls per second and can fire up to 8 balls per second if you have the response trigger which i reccomend if you get one, hmmm gun length is something around 20 inches with the stealth stock on it, the barrel is like 8 1/2 inches i think, flat line barrels own, weichs about 3 1/2 pounds with out the tank and it accurrate and effective from 250+ ft....thats about all i know from reading around on the sie..........

if you got questions on the a5 http://www.tippmann.com with answer everything

o and im gonna get one of their air soft guns theyre badass check em out
