The T4E Umarex TPM1 offers almost the same legendary reliability as its real, steel counterpart and is constructed from reinforced polymer and aircraft quality aluminium. we do not recommend it, with its strength and reliability, you could bang in nails with the TPM1 paintball pistol!

I'm looking at getting this, FPS is running around 300-320 however the output is less because of the 0.43cal balls. Do pistols get chronoed or is this adjustable? Not sure on the rules
Paintball pistols do get chronoed.
320 to 340fps is within the legal power limit due to the smaller .43 balls
The Umarex range have generally come out of the ‘home defence’ / police ‘less than lethal’ route and don’t come with the chrono adjustment normally expected for recreational paintball. Sometimes there are two versions of a typical product with a less powered valve option, or a DIY mod that can reduce the power
But it depends on the site/event rules as to whether .43 is allowed a higher chrono allowance - and also whether or not they sell paintballs in that size or allow BYO
(These smaller sizes are more known among Magfed’s)
A more regular player may be along to confirm what the general situation is these days
