Umarex to make a 68 caliber, 5-shot revolver- HDR-68

What I heard it called "blinking". Just shoot on Targets around our House to practise Target Shooting.

So... Target shooting

Just use it as is then. No need to go modifying it without knowing what you do or don't like about it

Well I have no problem at all with the Marker. I just wonder if the "upgrades" give some dramatic effect and eliminate some flawas the Marker maybe have? I want to optically mofiying by printing a slimmer Hull and remove for example the unnecessary "drum" behind the Ball Holder. Also the Grip Part is a bit to big for me.
I want give them more the design of a Handgun. Theoretically I am legally can modify it since there is no "J" limitation like Germany have.

The performance mods that are out there mainly focus on changing the velocity. Everything else is basically optics or "cool" factor.

As for printing a new body, I don't see why it wouldn't be possible but I'd also bet it's much much more complicated than you imagine. For instance that area behind the cylinder (that's the "ball holder" for reference) contains the valve so while it might be possible to slim it down a bit, don't expect tons.

The grip contains the CO2 changer and puncture assembly, so same thing, maybe you can slim it down a little bit don't expect a lot

The marker isn’t even usable for anything other than riot rounds. It’s a paintball paperweight. It shreds First strikes at low velocity and they are hard as a rock. It’s one of the biggest disappointments I purchased. The way it operates I don’t see a fix coming. The wheels are open on the front and back so it needs a massive amount of pressure to get any velocity. Then it delivers this massive pressure through a small port making it perfect for punching holes in paintballs before they leave the barrel. Anything hard enough to shoot out of it will not break on target especially at the low velocity they shoot. It’s an Air hog because it’s losing all its pressure with what is basically an open breach. You can increase the pressure with mods for self defense but if it’s shreds at 170fps its not going to shoot anything other then a riot round at higher pressure.

cool concept, pore execution. It was a lie selling this as a paintball marker. It’s not even close.

That's a shame about the revolver. I think with a few easy tweaks to the hds double barrel they could make it a viable affordable stock class marker. Make it velocity adjustable, and give the 12 gram knob and bigger more ergonomic handle. Bonus points for a brass or fiberoptic bead sight, and freak compatible.

It's not really open though. The barrel articulates into the cylinder. That was my largest gripe with it. The spring they used to articulate the barrel is so strong that it really affects the trigger pull. Pull slow and it is a much stiffer trigger pull, faster and the trigger flies back. The trigger and therefore exactly when it fired seemed really unpredictable to me. Hated it.

Traded for a Roscoe, I'm not saying the Roscoe doesn't have any problems but it sure is a lot more fun
