    AUCTION: Vintage Jackal Pump Marker. Possible clone of Tracer / Maverick / Mayhem Merlin / Mayhem Thuderbolt / Taso Spartan

    This belonged to a friend's brother so know nothing of its provenence or vintage I'm afraid. However, the friend is 50 and lives in Kent near Sevenoaks so I suspect that that this was probably in use about 25-30 years ago and may have been purchased in the area. In the previous thread there was...

    Now Driver Wood ceases Walkons too. What future for Walkons in the South East?

    So, I made quite an effort to frame the original post in a way that opened a discussion about what might be a wider problem and one that isn't particularly great for our sport. Sadly this forum isn't as active as it once was and I thought it might be the right platform to have this discussion...

    You're quite right. This was the first significant new thread (excluding For Sale threads) on here since October and one of the first posts since the beginning of December but it has attracted only two replies!

    Now Driver Wood ceases Walkons too. What future for Walkons in the South East?

    Is was announced this morning that Driver Wood in Copthorne, Surrey would cancel it’s walkon calendar with immediate effect.

    Vintage Pump Marker with 12-gram loader - Can you identify?

    Hi all. Can anyone identify this and is able to put a proper name to it. I've googled 'Jackal Painball Marker' and looked on www.vintagerex.com to no avail. Once I can get a decent description I'll put it up on here for auction if anyone's interested. Ta.

    Dye M2: LED flashing red when switched off.

    Yes, it did solve the issue permanently. It may be that you have some paint or moisture in a hard to reach place that isn’t immediately obvious just by removing the grips.
