Wow, crazy to find my original thread - anyway - doing some house cleaning and I found the bag that I kept all my PB stuff in. So im just going to do a repost of what I had - and still have in the same working order. The marker probably needs to be oiled and cleaned however.
Anyway - im selling this all as a package! for $275. Thats half of what I paid for everything and never used. (yay me!) The only used parts are the marker and gloves. This has everything you need to start playing except for a hopper. You shouldnt need a motorized one - look into spending 5-10 dollars on a generic one. If you play right, you dont chop balls and at least 30% of all your shots should land on your intended target anyway. noobs will want a 150rnd hopper. =)
If this doesnt sell at this price, I will keep it and maybe try to dig up some cash to play. If anyone plays regularly, let me know and I'll just keep it. =)
PMI Pirahna STS G2. See reviews here. (http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/206/)
The guy I bought it from upgraded the bottom line - not sure of the manufacturer but it looks exactly like this
http://www.anythingxtreme.com/pimages/g/Gun-XT-LEG3VF.jpg - (sorry no camera for actual pics)
Also it has some DYE .45 green clear smoke wrap-around grips. USED, but in perfect working order and condition. Its also had a new bolt put in. Looks very similar to a venturi bolt I had on my autococker. Its blue aluminum anodized, multi-ported - no logo. This would solve the o-ring issues I had imagined a marker like this would have - I was going to see how it played with the stock one, but someone beat me too it. I would suggest changing all o-rings and oiling before firing anything.
This also has a pair of PMI gloves (slightly worn) but very usefull.
I also purchased a Lapco BIGshot 14in black aluminum anodized barrel. Reviews here. (http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/240/)
This barrel has NEVER BEEN USED - EVER! Its still in its original protective tube. This little virgin combined with the piranha is just sick. I have not used my equipment, but used a friends before I bought all this stuff - let me tell you, I used a custom 'cocker with a 16" J&J spiral vented anodized fuk-em-in-a$$ pro-honed barrel that was more than twice the price of the bigshot. The little stock pirahna with the lapco put my 3.5k system to shame. I could have cried, but no one saw me so it didnt happen.
Most important of course is the VForce Morph mask. Found here. (http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/510/)
This has also NEVER BEEN USED! Its out of package, but just so I could try it on. It comes with a protective bag to carry it in. NEVER BEEN SHOT AT. Also has a "smoke" tint. I picked this one out b/c my old masks had blind spots and fogged up way too much. This one gives you nearly all your peripheral vision, is stronger, and just looks mean.
A 4+1 REDZ harness + 4 REDZ 150rnd(?) smoke tinted flip top tubes. Look here. (http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/351/)

JT Barrel Condom - Found here. (http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/2893/) NEVER USED! Very important for using a quality barrel, you dont want to scratch the insides with a crusty plug!
Also a 12oz CO2 tank - never used or filled, still has bubble wrap on it from when it was shipped to me new.
Im not in any particular hurry to sell this stuff. Been holding onto it for well over a 3-4yrs now - yikes. I used to be very heavy into paintball, had pro-gear, a team, etc... Sold that stuff a long time ago, however, I had a friend that was putting together a field and wanted me to play, but field never got finished and I never felt like playing again. I may, but its not hard to get gear again if I sell this stuff.
From an ex-semi-pro :) this is everything a person needs to get playing. If your experienced or n00b this will be all you need. I know the marker isnt anything special, but having played with some of the most expensive crap you can buy, it doesnt make you play any better - in some cases it makes you play worse. Unless your sponsored, dont waste your money on an automatic, electric, paintsprayer. The pros will call you n00b just for using one and will go out of their way to be the first to knock you out. Its all about tactics, not how much paint you can throw (even though painting the entire side of a barn in less than 10sec is fun). The only other marker I would suggest for anyone is a tippmann. My first marker was a pro-lite - the best marker I have ever owned. The Pirahna is just as reliable and much more accurate *thx to lapsco* for less money. Not any playtime with my setup however, so pro-lite may still hold the title. =P
Like I said, If no one is really interested in this stuff I will hold onto it and maybe play with you all in the future. ;NutKick; this stuff is only worth half as much as what I paid for it but you all are welcome to it.
