Valken Ripsaw - $189 Magfed Gun

[jokers]

Has anyone seen any movement on this marker? I thought it was going to happen around June and I know there there were some markers made.

Nothing yet.
I've read some speculation that they may be having a hard time getting a gun with an injection-molded breech to chamber First Strikes correctly.

They had been talking about $219.95 you can pre-order them at the valken website for that at least. https://www.valken.com/valken-ripsaw-paintball-gun/

$220 was what Gino was saying this past summer, but that was months ago.

But can it be converted to pump?

Hell yea, I figured between the internal airline system and the tendency of companies to overcomplicate things it wouldn't be so simple. I don't think I've seen the internals yet to be honest

In this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjkYjEEH88I they say it is valken blackhawk internals so slightly upgraded Tippman 98C

The Blackhawk is almost a 1:1 copy of the BT4 Combat. MCS makes a pump kit for their BT4/Blackhawk magfed conversion (MCS Bolt). The most difficult part would be cutting the shroud off and making a channel for the pump arm to connect to the bolt (in the hole where the hammer linkage normally is).

Give it a year and these will be everywhere used for $100 lol

[Snowpuff]

About DAM time we had an industry standard magwell design. Great to see. With three brands using it I think we can say this is the standard now.

My honest opinion though is that inline stocks are a horrible experience and shouldn't be the default. They'll sell better out the gate because milsim, but those players may be less likely to stick with PB longer term because of how much they suck to use. A decent M16 looking plastic riser with ironsights built on would be a good compromise.

I hate the length of blowbacks so I'd much rather the EMF100, but that's more than twice the price (more than $630 USD in NZ).

And yet we can't have a standard ASA mount
