Working Tribal Marker

[Aphex28]

I had a Tribal Mephisto 2.2 back in the day. Getting back into paintball is making me feel nostalgic and I want to get one for the feels. Would prefer a Twister or BBT or something with some milling but a Mephisto would be fine.

Hard to find. Most of them caught on fire and burned up. Remember that? The 9volts would short and get super hot if you gripped the grip too tightly. I picked mine up and it was super hot one time. Luckily I took out the battery quick and noticed it otherwise it would have melted and burned my car. I’ve seen one or two here and there, you’re gonna have to scan eBay constantly and check here often. I thought about getting another one, I sold mine in 9th grade lol. Instead I went into Angel LED’s and autocockers since I’ve got the budget now to afford all the sweet toys I wanted but couldn’t afford in 10th grade. Lol. Pushing 40 now so, don’t do the math.

I also wanted to get a brass eagle stingray 2 but, ehh. It’d just sit in my storage.

~kaos~ has had a few Tribals for sale in the past and he does all the rebuild work himself.

Oh man I'm right there with you. I had it back when I was in high school as well

Now I have 2 kids and am pushing 40 myself. So the math is absolutely the same here. It is a lot different this time since now I have 15 years of engineering and mechanical knowhow under my belt to work on these things. Also money. LOL.

I am 100% willing to throw money at ~kaos~ for a working one! Preferably with an LPR and a board capable of ramping. Otherwise I can try to mess with the electronics myself.

PM if interested in this guy. Kaos did the rebuild before I bought it from him, then I wired in a Morlock MK3 board.

Just missed the Mephy I had f/s.... Only Tribal I have left is my original Addicted w/chaos board and she's NFS.
If the Flame above works for you cool, If not LMK and I can put you in touch with James Brooks.... he has a few he got from Shifty a while back that he's selling.
