English sent me this link so the credit all goes to him, but this looks pretty cool if it actually works, and now with the true full auto on the Tm-15, this is definitely going in my arsenal! :D

just need a 6 barrel minigun marker

[TripHammer]

That's awesome! I've been thinking of trying to make something like that for a while, but could not solve the longer feed pipe issue.

One feature that I did not see advertised, that I thinkwould be incredibly popular is an air tank holder andintegrated mini air line to the marker!

The idea being that your tank is integrated into thebackpack (I guess losing some paint space) and a mini air line runs alongsidethe feed pipe, maybe between the metal pipe and the outer cover, there is aquick disconnect to the marker. This would eliminate the bulky tank on the backas well as the hopper! Most of the milsim guys I play with all use remotesanyway, and are used to having a line to their backpack.



The mini line I was thinking of is from the scuba-diving arena (my other costly hobby),it’s a high pressure very lightweight and flexible hose: http://www.miflexhos...hifeatures.html

I like the idea of yours to have the air tank integrated. Should not be too hard.

HOLY CRAP!!!!

Since Valken only has small markers they don't need a remote most of these guys use air-on-marker so this is OK.   Unless air can be integrated, its not practical for me.

[Talyn]

trip, have you tried using one of those lines on one of your markers? if so, how well do they work for giving you freedom of movement?

[Tomcat]

I have no problems with movement with remotes.  I've played since 2005 with them.  Love em especially with the Pro-Connect valve....sweet.

i use a remote, I was just curious about the non coiled remotes

[Tomcat]

Mine are coiled and covered.  Hmmm.  Never used the straight lines....

[side-effects]

I used to have a non coiled remote line. Got in the way a lot more than the coiled ones. It wasn't a nice flexible one like triphammer's link though.

[dannyquest]

Coil design is to stay compressed an take less space when its not in movement/being stretched. A coil retracts like a slinky. I love slinkies and i love you Mr. Bubbles. Lol

[TripHammer]

I have the mini line on my contents gauge for my regs its great, very light and flexible, they are almost untangleable. The  connectors don't it my remote and I don't fancy playing with high preasure connectors, but miflex are down the road from me, so I might drop them a line and see what they say.

I also contacted Valken about my idea, they said that they already have the tank/remote option in the pipeline (sorry could not resist)

I'll keep you posted if I get anywhere.

WOW! I hope its as reliable as they say i would hate to have to deal with just one paintball break in that thing.

I stuck in my info for the pre-order, I have not heard anything yet, I'll let you know when I do!
