No worries. Yep I've been there many moons ago. What's up with Unreal, I member in the naughties it was the bomb and really popular? I was going to try Outpost on the 17th but I'll try and slip in a sneaky Skirmish at the end of the month.

Sam I got an email from Unreal saying they’re not running the event on the 26th! Do you have any ideas where I can go instead or are you going anywhere else and can I tag along? Thanks

Dudes! Unreal paintball has cancelled its walk-on this weekend! I need my fix, where can I go short notice. Max distance 2 hours from Chester area. Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Thanks it’s new so I won’t worry then. I’ll pop in the battery and screw on the air and rock out with my glock out! There goes my excuse to get my hands on it early. But damn I can’t wait to grease those bolts!

Thanks for your input. Basically your saying the marker is robust so I don’t need to faff. But does grease have the potential to perish/dry out if left for a long time? For example let’s say I played and then cleaned and re-greased my marker and left it for a year, would that grease still be ok?

So while waiting to unwrap my Etha 2 (the sanest choice, in an insane world) for my birthday, I though I would watch a video on bolt maintenance and there’s quite a bit of greasing going on there. Anywho, it got me thinking - how is my grease? I don’t know how long my marker has been in it box...

Hi dude, I’m getting back into it and would say my knowledge is at the rudimentary stone tool phase maybe heading towards hunter gatherer. But my guidance would be to look to go on sum walk-on days near you, near me there’s Outpost Chester and Unreal Paintball Stoke. Basics to buy would be a...

Thanks Sam. How will I identify you? Do you have any distinguishing features? Or should we use a pass phrase like: I say- “Does the Brass Eagal Raptor crow at dusk?" You can reply, to let me know it’s you by saying- "Yes, but only in the shade of your Ego." "If it's raining in the Empire . ...

So I’m going to Unreal Paintball (Stoke) on the 26th September. Basically, I imagine walk-on days are like a prison rec yard. Lots of different factions looking out for their own. Is anyone going and can I join your faction? I don’t want to be a loner and made into the walk-on b#*€!h! Also...

Okie dokie thanks for all the input! So I did sum research and saw that Eclipse has a tech page and saw that there was a telephone number. I found the pressure too great (excuse the pun) so I rang eclipse and the helpful dude said, very nicely, stop being a pleb the marker can handle the setup...

Bod the wise! Thanks for chipping in. So am I good to go with the Aluminium Field bottle? I presume the Etha 2 can handle the step down to 800-850psi then regulate that pressure to what it needs to operate?

Sage Tom, thanks for your guidance. Your words have calmed my anxious mind, I didn’t want to turn up to the walk-on a be the ******* that blows out his marker. I remember many moons ago sumf like my old reg’s output was 800psi. How do I find out the regs output? Or are they all standard?

Okie dokie when I last wielded a marker it was in the mid-naughties and it was a Tippman A5 and I don’t remember any discussions about “output pressure”. You plugged and played. I recently invested in a Etha 2 and I noticed in the literature something saying the the output range for the marker...

Thanks for the guidance “dude with all the gear” - see I listened to the podcast! I’m very much a best value kind of dude, for the most part, so two batteries for 9 coin seems a bit excessive.

That’s what I thought, thanks.
