    What is your experience with paintballwizard.com?

    Greetings,

    Short version - what is your experience with paintballwizard.com? I need to order a wire harness for a G6R.

    Long version - I pinched the eye cables on my G6R when I was servicing it. Not the first - or the last - time with a Bob Long marker... At the moment I can only find the eye wire harness on paintballwizard.com, since it is out of stock on Field One. Any other stores where I can get hold of it?
    Oh, by the way - how in the name of Bork do you assemble the G6R without pinching the eye cables - or assemble it at all, actually... I consider myself to be a quite adept tech, but I cannot get the blasted gun back together without the cables getting in the way.

    Also, one of the eyes are busted (the right one). Is it a relevant upgrade to get the 4C eyes over the 2C ones? Personally I will only use it for recreational play, or as a loaner, but it will infuriate me if I chop a single ball due to a worse set of eyes. If the 4C ones are advisable, where do I get them? Every webpage I have visited are all sold out.

    Got Bork?

    I shopped at PBWizard when I lived in the backwoods of GA nearly two decades ago, and now practically drive by the store during my morning commute (which is a trip)... They're great.

      They’re legit. I’ve ordered from them often, quick turnaround on shipping, never any issues

        I use them from time to time. They're also an Amazon seller and some of their stuff is prime eligible. No complaints here.

              At the very least, its better that there is more than 1 paintball retailer, so I try to avoid ANS. I was really bummed when paintballgear.com (action village) became part of ANS.

              So when I can buy from someone that isnt ANS to hopefully keep them in business, I do.

                  Ever since I was a young boy
                  I’d sling the gelatin ball
                  From Jim Thorpe down to Philly
                  i musta played em all
                  but I ain’t seen nothing like him
                  in any game of rec ball
                  That old slow and fat guy
                  sure played a mean paintball

                    I've purchased quite a few things from pb wizard via eBay. They're one of my saved sellers. They've gotten a lot of my pandemic splurge business.

                      Bwahahahaha, you have discovered the evil that is Bob long designs... Wires

                      Bob never seemed to... What's the word.... Plan, for where wires would go in his markers, they were an afterthought.

                      That aside, my favorite way was either a dental/o ring pick, using a flat side to shove them into place or possibly something like a index card if you need something thinner when getting the frame set on the body
