My question is... are any of them actually good?
I've always loved the idea of a paintball pistol, but there were horror stories about these breaking after a few shots, at least what I can remember from back in the day.

The biggest issue is leaking. That said, they don't seem to leak more than other blowbacks of their time. Some designs are better than others. The ones with the push pins retaining the hammer and spring are more reliable because the valve o rings are not pushed over threaded openings. These are fun to shoot and depending on your style of play, fun to use in games. Current mag fed pistols are more practical for quick reloading. But for those who have a more sluggish style of play, they are perfectly fine.

I don't see a Sidekick Semi or a Squall. And of course, AFT and Sydarm.
Does Line SI Advantage or the Rapide count?

I'm accepting donations of the Sydarm and AFT Trainer. I have a Sidekick and the matching 494 pump. I didn't include it because it was plastic. And I forgot that I had it (actually 2). The Rapide is not spring fed. I don't have a SI Advantage or a Squall, that I know of. So, I can't give you an answer for those.

Maybe. I have several of each of the PT family of markers and several labeled PT Xtreme. The all-Chrome model across from the Direct Feed Xtreme above is labeled PT Xtreme and has been listed as PT Xtreme Jr in advertisements. So, I am not sure if the chrome model is Gen 2 or Jr. Like in my other Post on the PT Markers, 32 Degrees does not seem to follow any discernable rhyme or reason for model names or generation. The only consistent defining feature of the Xtreme models is the spring loader and its mounting lugs on the marker. The removable barrel and lever 12 gram do not carry though the Xtreme generations.

Re checked my markers. I failed to realize that I have a PT Xtreme Gen 3 and Xtreme JR in all chrome. Thinking the two markers were the same, I only displayed one. Not sure if I have a Gen 2 stainless valve, but I will be checking Also, I'm old and feeble and forget things a lot.
Like this: I probably should have included the Brass Eagle model Eagle 68 since it has a spring-loaded magazine.

Is that one on the bottom middle a PT Professional? If so then you're also missing a PT Punisher

The Raider is rare but is easier to find references of and obtain....ANS was selling Refurbs for a while. The Punisher is damned near impossible to find any reference of as is it's full sized marker cousin the Defender (No not the Empire Defender ....This one was made by 32 degrees before they made the Rebel and was released when the PT Enforcer came out. Was the same internals as the PT Enforcer but was a full sized marker)
