Yep Autocockers were introduced in what 1990-1991. There was no such thing as a Electro-pneumatic marker at that time.

Its not the Marker that does the work.. Heck A marker is useless unless there is a good paintballer using it to mow faces like... Like Scott Q

(good job in the tourney) and like i said its the paintballer who mows faces...

ScottQ · 08-18-2006, 09:55 AM

there were no shoebox shockers, but give me a shoebox shocker and I am sure I could have bunkered and done just as many run throughs.

Vikings are excellent markers, even by today's standards.

mikey2856 · 08-21-2006, 12:02 AM

o man, i know. they spit ropes. only reason i dont have one of my own to tool around w/ is b/c they still cost as much as they did 10 years ago. all i'm saying is that the rainmaker wasn't up against egos and dms.

and vikings are silly fast

Agitator · 08-21-2006, 08:04 PM

vikings are awesome... I still like the excalibur better though.
Man- those rainmakers are s3xy lookin'! Nice win, guys! (I say this a year later, lol).

Isn't the stock viking board capped at 13? Oh- I bet it has a moveable cap

not capped just factory tuned to 13bps. some legal thing they had with insurance. as i recall the boards was able to 20 bps once you programed it.

Well, first off, Vikings weren't being made 10 years ago. The first electronic guns were only just coming out. As for price, Vikings have dropped significantly. You can now get an unmilled Viking with SCM, an upgraded board, etc for about $350.

And we weren't up against good guns? What about the Matrix team shooting DM's? Or the Shocker team shooting new Shockers? Or the AKA team that was shooting fully upgraded Vikings (i.e. fully milled, Tadao, etc)? Should I continue?

Boohoo

KickinChicken · 03-07-2007, 05:52 PM

how fast could a brasseagle shoot?

**PenguinMan** · 03-08-2007, 07:06 PM

Upgraded Rainmakers usually top out at about 18 or so. Plenty fast enough.

T-Vizz the 2nd · 09-21-2007, 07:28 PM

They win with a discontinued gun. *claps for BE* there many year old technology is lighyears ahead of the stuff they put out now. And not to mention, those probably have mods on them that arent out to the general public either.

That said, I have to give props to the team for winning with anything put out by BE.

tipp98chopshop · 02-03-2008, 05:23 PM

wait so its a team that only uses rain makers that won the tourny? pretty cool I wish I saw more vids of nice ones shootin

beingextreme · 02-28-2008, 03:54 AM

Imagine a bunch of ducks quacking, and thats what I think a bunch of rainmakers shooting sounds like.

Well then, you've just made it obvious that you've never been on a field where a Rainmaker has been shot.

They are rather infamous, you should know, as being the loudest paintball gun ever built. Off the break it probably would have sounded like the Battle of Kursk.

tipp98chopshop · 02-28-2008, 08:06 AM

lmao. I would love to see one now.
