But as i read through the majority of posts i cant understand half of them, to me it just looks like mumbo jumbo! Can some please explain the fundamentals of the marker or 'gat' as some of you call them?

Board -

Trigger & Bolt -

Detents -

QEV -

Eyes -

Freak Kits -

That is all for now! If any kind souls would like to add me to msn and explain in some more detail, feel free: edd.summers@hotmail.co.uk

Board -in electrical markers, a circuitboard that controls the firing types of your gun etc

Trigger & Bolt -trigger is the thing you pull to shoot :p and the bolt is the thing that moves back and forth in the gun to shoot the ball

Detents - think these stop teh ball rolling down the barrel and out the end

QEV - not sure what they do :p think they imporve air efficincey:confused:

Eyes - detect if there is a ball in the firing chmber or not, they 'see' the ball using lazers :confused:

Freak Kits - a 2-piece barrel kit (you get a back then you can change the tips to the desired length and add inserts to the back to improve your markers performance

That is all for now! If any kind souls would like to add me to msn and explain in some more detail, feel free: edd.summers@hotmail.co.uk

and i would like to know why people call their markers 'gats' too.
ps i'm still new so dont hold me to any of that but thats as much as i know :D hope it helps a little:)

here you go

the board is the circuit board that is inside the gun. Its like the computer inside your car it tells the gun how fast to fire etc.

A qev is a quick exaust valve and is commonly found on a gun called a cocker

the trigger is obviously the trigger on the gun and the bolt is the device that slides forward and realeases the gas to fire the paintball

finally a freak kit is a type of barrel system wich uses inserts to ensure a tight fit to the paint ball making the gun more accurate and gas efficient.

Different lengths of barrels also effect the accuracy and velocity of the gun so if you see anyone referring to a barrel and sayining it's for example 14" long that's the reason why.

Hope that helped .............. Glen:)

and if they say 14" freak kit then the size is the total size including the back and tip :p
