Tippmann Markers

 

 

Tippmann has been supplying paintball markers, accessories, and attachments since 1986.  Their main goal is to supply cheap, but durable paintball markers with high-quality performance.  Originally Tippmann supplied replicas of real firearms.  However with the new sport of paintball being created, they began to manufacture paintball markers. Tippmann prides their marker’s durability.  These include the standard weather resistant valves, strong marker finishes, and that they are made with today’s paintball players in mind.

 

 

Tippmann C-3

 

This is one of Tippmann’s older markers, released in 2005.  It has a pump-action firing style, which gives it an old-school feel, but like most Tippmann markers, it is very durable.  It is capable of using compressed air, CO₂, and propane.  The propane-enhanced technology allows this marker to shoot about 50,000 paintballs on 12-once tank of propane.

Tippmann SL-68 II

 

This another one of the older markers produced by Tippmann.  It is very accurate, making up for the pump-action.  It is field-strippable and also includes the durability that the company is known for.  It is very light making it easy to move, so it is m ore recommended for woods-ball.  It does have some weaknesses because it is not compatible with modern hoppers.  Overall, it is cheap in price, but is a very good marker.

Tippmann 98 Custom

 

This marker is a very unique one.  It is heavy but durable as usual.  It is a very good marker especially if you are willing to customize it.  This marker was made to be upgraded, so you will need to put a lot of though into this one.  You should make it reflect your own strategies and personality.  Overall, this a good marker without upgrades, but with upgrades will improve the marker to fit your type of play.

Tippmann A-5

 

This marker improves on the 98 customs strengths, but also increases the weaknesses.  It is the most customizable marker on the market today and is very accurate but heavy.  Its cyclone feed technology makes fixing a jam in the hopper as easy as pushing a button.  It usually comes with the grip to improve accuracy.  Hopper is relatively small, but that is not a huge problem.  Overall, this marker is one that you would mostly use for woods-ball.

Tippmann X-7

 

This marker once again is an improvement from its predecessor.  It is lighter than the A-5, but does not sacrifice any accuracy.  The hopper capacity was also improved.  This marker is compatible to most A-5 upgrades, but still is less customizable.  This marker also comes with a standard shroud and fake magazine that holds a small kit for easy fieldstrip-ability and adjusting FPS.  Overall, this marker replaces some of the A-5’s customization for a boost in almost every other aspect of the marker.

Project Salvo

 

This marker is basically an upgraded alpha black.  It is durable and highly customizable.  It is designed like the AR-15 but is not easy to clean.  It fits the barrel thread of the 98 custom, however, that makes it hard to find modern barrels for this marker.  The marker is accurate, so you probably will not need to buy another barrel anyway.  Unlike most Tippmann markers this one does not come with the standard cyclone feed system.  Overall, this is a very accurate and lie-like marker.

Alpha Black 

 

This marker was designed to be similar to the U.S. Army’s M-16.  It is light, durable, and accurate. Even though this marker is well made it suits few upgrades and accessories. Overall, this marker is well made, but needs some improvement.

Tippmann X-7 Phenom

 

This is Tippmann’s latest and greatest invention. This marker is everything the X-7 wasn’t. It is lighter and more accurate thanks to its Flex valve technology. It is shorter than the X-7 making better for close-quarters play, but does not reduce accuracy. Overall, this is a great paintball marker.
