On the Drawing Board


Here are some paintball projects I am working on.

VM-68 Field Rifle

This marker is based on the VM-68 Magnum paintball gun. It has an old school expansion chamber on the front and is used with a remote to the air inlet on the bottom of the grip. It has a skeleton stock (the CO2 quick change is from another project, but makes a nice cheek rest) and a weaver base with red dot scope (wishful thinking).


Splatmaster Mods

Everyone remembers the Splatmaster. In tribute to those old paintball guns, here are modifications to the Splatmaster line.

The Sniper/Scout

This Splatmaster Rapide has the longest barrel I've ever found. I used the "competition" stock as well as the larger 40-rd magazines. I would think they would fit great into an old chicom chest pouch (shamefully I haven't tried this) or into some South African gear - they use the Vektor rifles (an AK/Galil variant) which has longer magazines than the US M-16 series or Warsaw Pact (can I still say this?) AK-style banana clips.

The Assault Rapide

Designed with the quick assault in mind, this marker features a hopper adapter (I am showing it sans hopper), foregrip, and CA-bottle adapter. The sling is for letting the weapon relax while you are having your post-game beverage.

The CQB (Close Quarters Battle) Pistol

It is CQB only in that it is a short, short weapon. The Splatmaster does require one pump per shot - and an awkward pump it is - so due to its low volume of fire, perhaps CQB is a misnomer. This is a pistol that you don't have to change the C02 cartridges out on every 25 shots or so, but still have the low profile of a Splatmaster.


Paintball Scenario Bike (?)

This project started as a way to combine mountain biking with paintball. Don't laugh - pictures are coming.
