Not steel, it's aluminium but 2 years out of test anyway.

I may be mistaken but i thought HPAC had stopped doing air at events, i'm sure i saw an announcement from Trevor, they're still doing testing though.

Paintball bottle regs aren't tested normally, the thread in the bottle is checked with a gauge like you say but not the reg, but it's not the reg thread that is likely to have seen better days, crossfire bottles and regs are old, i replaced the reg on my crossfire bottle long ago. good luck in...

A crossfire reg is pretty old, in my opinion you'll be better off with a new one on a bottle, but BZ and just paintball both sell bottles without regs. I'm not sure what you mean by "as long as it passes a go / no go " were you going to get it tested somewhere?

you know that's just that single page not a full manual, and he already has that there in his post.

I would suggest you try and get a job marshalling at a paintball site and learn a bit about paintballing as it appears to me you know nothing about it, have you even played?. opening a site is a big investment, and this is probably not the best time to do it with the economy going downhill fast.

lots of sites that only cater for rental players still run on co2, they don't need to go the vast expense of installing an air system. It's a popular misconception by own equipment players that everywhere runs on air, because that's all they see at the sites and events they play at, they don't...

i don't think there's any sites that allow anyone, rental players or own gunners to casually turn up, if they don't have players booked in to play they won't be open, they're not going to get marshals in just in case some one turns up.

This bottle is also iso 11119-2 certified but they've put a death date on it, presumably so they can keep on selling new bottles in the future instead of every one have infinite life bottles.

no idea but the iso 11119-2 certification was out a fair few years before 2016, there are other bottle makes that don't have a death date ( technically all iso 11119-2 certified bottles have unlimited life span but makers are still putting 15 years on them.) but they don't advertise the fact...

unless i've gone blind i don't see a flatline barrel in that picture.

the whole lot £60-£70 and only because of the flatline barrel. i don't know about being considered a classic but i do know it's considered a site gun and there are boxes of them available for not a lot of money if you ask the right people.

i'd say about £20-£30.

a tippmann 98 isn't worth much, you might as well keep it as a back up.

But UKPSF membership will only be required to buy from UKPSF member retailers, non member retailers have no obligation to ask to see a membership card or details, i assume that all current UK retailers are UKPSF members though.

the tank may still be usable depending on when it was made, the date will be among the markings stamped around the top, but as Tom says they don't have a lot of resale value as you can buy new ones for under £40.

The UKPSF corrected their info on aluminium bottles quite a long time ago and does state 10 years. https://www.facebook.com/notes/987807755045608/

It's actually a Tri certified bottle in that it has Pi, DOT and TC, Pi being Europe, DOT being USA and TC being Canada.

Yes it's UK legal and yes the death date is may 2023 no matter how many years test it may have on it, if you get it tested now it's only good for 18 months.

Paintball sites have decided getting shot in the head puts people off from playing so they try to reduce it from happening by saying head shots don't count, also by headshots not counting players are in the game zones longer using more paint therefore spending more money, simple really.

Maybe a new pair of those then.

What's wrong with the I4's you have? only trying on different masks will reveal which are best for you so if you can get to a retail shop or event with traders there that's your best bet, asking on places like this is a waste of time as everyone has an opinion and no one but you knows how big...

I thought the sale of new items wasn't allowed in the classifieds, when ever i tried selling a gun stand ( responding to wanted ads) my posts were deleted as i was deemed to be a trader and told i needed to pay i think it was £240 a year to advertise on here just like the other retailers, and...

Again, no proof pictures.

All pictures of items for sale have to include a piece of paper with your forum name and the date on it, it proves you have what you claim to have, You're also supposed to put a price for each item, it's all clearly stated in the classifieds rules.

you know this thread will be deleted, no proof pictures.

I used to buy shotgun swabs for cleaning the site guns, either attach to a short bit of fibreglass tent pole to use as a push through or put a cord on it and use as a pull through.

well it's been around 9 years since i was involved at site level so don't know how they're doing things now but they can legally be shot at a higher fps than .68cal, even 280fps isn't the legal limit for .68cal, the legal limit is around 300-305fps depending on the weight of the ball but...

there were people using .50 cal for walkons, i remember quite a few getting conversion kits but i never tried it myself.
