Paintball Gun Advise - Tippmann 98 Custom


Recommended Posts

Some friends of mine are big into paintball. I wanted to get a gun to start playing with them. One of the guys said he had a 'starter kit' he could sell me for $250. I want to know what you paintball guys think. I haven't played paintball in about 4 years and I have never owned my own gun. This seems like a good deal to me, but I know nothing about paintball guns. So you tell me, is this worth $250?

Package Includes:

Tippmann 98 Custom Marker

Flatline Barrel System

RT response trigger system

View loader revolution agitating loader (fresh batteries)

Rear thumb velocity adjuster

Psychoballistics starfire bolt

32 degrees coiled remote w/slide check

Adjustable gas through stock

Pure energy 20oz. tank

4 + 1 harness w/pods

JT Thermal goggles

Parts kit (not pictured)

All i would need is paintballs and gas right?

Depends on how used it has been. Otherwise, it's not too bad of a deal, if it is in good condition. But the question I'd like to ask you is, if you really need your own personal paintball marker?

I've seen the gun. It looks to be in good condition. Fired off a few rounds and everything works. The owner is a good friend and wouldn't rip me off or anything. He said he would show me how to strip and clean it plus give me any help needed.

Do I need a paintball gun? Probably not. Do I want one? Hell yea. :D

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.
    • How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
