$900 for a partial barrel kit…. Flame away!

[autococker04]

I know someone who can flip that for $3000

Bwahaha!

[MrBarraclough]

But only parted out.

Does it come in 98 custom threads? I could definitely use a few kits if it does....Honestly it's fairly smart, you know some kids are going to pay that price so why not?

[Heavy_D]

$900 and you only get 3 inserts, smallest being .680 lmao.

[RedLeaderSB]

Complete miss lol
I just wanted new style TI backs, like they used to have.

Maybe Dave's legal bills are really starting to pile up?

[Trbo323]

Do any barrel producers these days actually go out and size paint?

They are actually doing a business thing by selling the .678 and .675 inserts on the side.
They know the sizes and they this is on purpose.

[BrickHaus]

I mean... All I wanna know is.. Does it throw sparks?

Honestly for any open bolt application, that's probably the three inserts to use. Even by todays standards. I was shooting a .684 insert on my rsx when I was shooting the same paint on a .670 creeper insert for the nova n2.1.

price is crazy af, but not surprising given the subject matter.

Proof that the manufacturers of our beloved paintball gear have insight to the fact that paintballers are fools who love to spend money on absolutely stupid crap. These will sell because people are idiots and idiots are not financially savvy or..... they are idiots with too much money. One or the other.

"An idiot and his money are soon parted" followed by some glowing online reviews because of sunk cost fallacy

[Jonnydread]

Mmmm snake oil

[autococker04]

Snake oil is one of the best selling products in paintball history.

[RPP]

Ohhh its not just paintball lol.

[Glovebox Operator]

$100 for the carbon fiber, $100 for the titanium, $100 for the DYE name and $600 to be 1 of 300 to never use it. No thanks

There are two games played on a paintball field. The game where you win by eliminating the other team or capturing a flag... And the game of who can drop the most $$$ on paintball.

Obviously this will greatly help those folks who are looking for the edge when it comes to spending the most cash, but I worry Dye's color choice for the barrels will clash with a lot of people's existing looks.

[Glovebox Operator]

I've never had the money to buy skills. I guess I'll just have to develop them the old fashion way, still.

Yep. They need to make gloss purple an option before I would even consider buying it. Actually scratch that - they need to make an Automag twist lock back an option before I would even consider buying it.

Oh, and make it gloss purple.

$2000 guns with $900 barrels fed by $250 hoppers and $350 tank regs shooting the most God awful imported paint the game has offered since nelson oil based.

The metrics of modern paintball is fully stupid.

[PBGunny]

You forgot your $300 mask and $500 jersey and pants.

[Ecapnation]

Neither effect the gun.

[RPP]

Dont forget the $400 Hormesis headband

[Spaghetti Overdrive]

This is gaudier than the SLY Diesel kits. Shame - without all the lettering etc, it could genuinely look really badass. I think dye's CF barrels peaked with the original CF boomstick. That thing was pure class.
