[Conorman356]

firefox, these guys arent giving you any break on this thread hah, i am about to pick up a yellow g3 iq, and i just wanted to know, what is the RAPS ASA?

[firefoxx04]

its a ASA (air source adapter?)

its hooked to the bottom of the grip frame and the air tank screws into it

the special thing about it is that is uses a flip lever instead of the conventional knob to turn the air on and off.

its a great ASA and i dont know what i would do without it

good luck with the g3

[firefoxx04]

added a link to swedishfishh's g3 maintenance guide

[redneck407]

allllllllright sice you like the g3s i have one but i would like to put a board in it what kind do you think

[firefoxx04]

the new OLED APE board or the normal APE board.. it really depends on your buget

the seventh element boards requires (and comes with) a new trigger
the APE boards dont need a knew trigger but you may have bounce issues.

if you have the money buy the OLED APE board and a cp or TBO trigger

is a g3 better than a fusion

[physco-IoN]

yes.

[firefoxx04]

no it is not better than a fusion, why you ask.

a fusion is a poppet valve and the g3 is a spool valve

i have not used a fusion but i can say it will get more efficiency than the g3 will (amusing both are stock)

generally a poppet has more "kick" than a spool valve but i have used poppets and there really isnt any kick.

pick what ever is more comfortable to you.

give a reason for why it is better.
did you say the g3 because thats what you use. i only use a g3 and i can name many many markers that i consider better than it.

[xmc1146]

G3 could be better as far as after market stuff. i do like the feel of both guns and both shoots good. you can get more out of a G3 though if you buying it use, cause some already comes with aftermarket stuff.

[firefoxx04]

right, any gun will work fine, fusion against ego.. pretty much players skill will detirmane.. but a g3 against a stock tippy 98.. the g3 is faster and will most likely keel the 98 player down until he just ends up getting him

main factor is skill

buy a marker you like, get a new board if you need to.. then practice to get better.

give ollie lang a g3 and i bet he does just as good once hes used to it.

[ETEKorFusion]

can u put an RF transmitter on a g3? how about on a Fusion?

[firefoxx04]

not the stock board for the g3, i do belive the virue and the APE boards support it.

im not sure but i dont think the fusion supports it either, unless an aftermarket board is used.

but, is the use of a RF needed? i use and invert too and its just fine (sound activated) fastest ive TRIED was 25bps and it did it no problem

[ETEKorFusion]

its because im using a halo b2 and its not feeding balls at the speed of 25bps so i wanted to get a prophecy and put an RF transmitteron my fusion. Do you have any suggestions

[firefoxx04]

i wouldnt know what boards support it exactly but if the APE board does then jump on that.

but do not get a new board for the RF... that would cost about 60-120$ depending on what APE board you get.

why not just buy a better hopper.
if you get a better hopper you can put it on any paintball gun.

i would only get a new board if the stop one is preventing you from playing at your field and in tourys

[ETEKorFusion]

i want to get a rotor but i don't have that much money what hopper do you think should be good enough

[firefoxx04]

i use an invert too, (it was 60$ when i got it now there 70$ i think)

but i would say, get a halo B and if you can get the halo B with the V35 board (victory board) your all set.

ive used Halo Bs, Halo B (with v35), halo invert too, Empire Reloder B, and rotors.. all worked the same.

the invert too should be the cheapest but im not sure

[ETEKorFusion]

ok then. thanks for the help

[ETEKorFusion]

now my 06 fusion is leaking from the OPR part of the gun. Any ideas what could be wrong and how to fix it

[firefoxx04]

06? you meen 07?

and i wouldnt know.. ive never had a fusion, feel free to start a new thread asking how to fix it.
