A couple groups we play with are looking for something that is refurbishable by today's today's parts availability. And I need a trigger frame personally. Do you know of a stash of carbines that we could get our hands on?

I mean most of the industry falls under this. I have a few ACI griffins that I just got done with. The only seal I left in them was the hammer cup seal but I'm pretty sure I could track that down if I needed but they were working fine so I saw no reason to.
The hang up would be any hard parts. Bolt, poppet stem, trigger that go bad. Low possibility but if it happens you'll pretty much need a parts doner to fix it. This also applies to the older tippmanns though some parts are getting scarce. I had to modify a tippmann 98 connecting rod to fix a carbine a while ago because the carbine length ones are no longer anywhere
Can't say I know of a stack of carbines specifically at the moment. I do have a decent chunk of spyders and a few tippmanns on hand if you just need basic markers though

I use Tapatalk which does NOT display comments. If you want me to see it, make it a post not a comment.
I'm not sure if they have any still laying around but Cousins in NJ had some a while back. I also have some spare parts here. Pics attached of what I have
They got moved to long island a few years ago and we helped to sell some off......however when they lost their larger property most of the remaining were scrapped

Copy Thank you for the information. I will ask about the markers you are offering. Things are fairly dead here for paintball. Most of the businesses have gone under, so finding gear is a creative task.

Hi DJ
What Bryan said is accurate. I was trying to buy what was left of the lot from who has the remains, but I think he's busy with life and paintball is no longer a priority.
It's a shame that paintball stuff gets scrapped in the first place. Ten to Twenty years down the road, what was scrapped is then greatly needed. I am still kicking myself for giving away what I thought was junk - SL 68 Powertubes and valve bodies all the way back in 2008. We are desperate for those parts today. *dumbass*!
