I've got a Marauder. Its the MOST worthless gun ive ever bought. It worked well after the 1st few outings. Then it started chopping balls. And now there something screwed up with the CO2 inlet. And when i shoot 1 ball, it sounds like im shooting an auto. :S NEver get one.. And the only time it was EVER accurate was when i shot without a barrel. Glad im gonna get a 98 custom. But the best way to play is either have a team hold a fort and have the other group try to infiltrate. Or playing in an open field with a few rock piles/ tree for cover. good times...

Was wondering when the Marauder bashing would begin....lol

# 1, you cannot use the stock barrel...worthless piece of crud. I put a spyder barrel on mine and the last weekend we played I shot close to 1500 rounds and maybe chopped 2 balls. The marker actually shoots better with NO barrel compared to the stock barrel.

# 2, The reason your gun is burping is because you have low tank pressure. Mine does the same thing when the tank gets low so it's not the marker.

# 3, with a few mods it is a very good marker for the money. A) Drill a small vent hole in the underside of the feed tube. This will prevent ball blow-back into the hopper. Get another bumper the same size as the one already on the bolt and place it on the rod next to the existing bumper. This shortens the bolt travel and improves perfomance. And C) Clean the gun after every use and lube the actions and rings.

The way I look at it, if I can put every ball within a 1 foot target at 50 yards for about $50 I'm happy.

That being said, I will eventually get a 98, but until then I'm completely happy with my Maurader.

Yea, but it was doing that on a FULL tank.. But ya those tips do help.

You'll never believe it. One of our officers found some fishing equipment today(two rods, fishing line, hooks) along with some tools, and best of all, A tippman paintball gun. Hope no one is missing any. Either they were stolen and dumped off there, or lost, I just may have a new paintball partner.

Anyone else see those new Soft Air guns around. I picked one up today. They use air to shoot about T shot size hard plastic balls around. They hurt like heck, and a bunch of us picked them up. Its like paintball but not half as expensive. Just 9 bucks for 5,000 rounds. You can even buy little paintballs that fit into those guns. I have quite a few welts already.
