Ok,
1. It kicked like a mule on acid!

2. it had the accuracy of an american carpet bombing mission (circa 1943)

3. It weighed close to 2 tons

4. The barrel retainer was a spring loaded pin (pre stp) which because of previously mentioned mule on drugs kept falling off!

But on the plus side when my team turned up with five of them back in the day it sounded like the set of a bad arni film and everyone with phantoms just ran away as tree's started falling down,

A whole 5bps dont ya know

Anyone else remember the crank handle attachment they did to turn them into a gattling gun!! :confused:


And on the subject of the Barracuda, I didn't want to turn it into an anti brass eagle rant so left them off my list, WTF did ya need a 21" barrel for anyway!

Prosecution rests

its great aint it :) of course its poop nowadays, but man that was a gatling gun of old. Never used one back then, wasnt into paintball but Ive used one down the site and from what Im told there was nothing like it. I can see its former glory.

Damn ugly/heavy/scary all in one!

Maybe ugly and heavy but definetly not worst designed! Majority of today's markers are still based on that design!

Damn! I still have one of those kicking around somewhere! truly lethal! was like being shot with an air rifle, paint always bounced as well!

Back when 50 paintballs lasted the day!!!
