any SP-8 Sightings?

Who's the child here? And for your previous comments about counterstrike... I never said I played counterstrike in this post so whatever medication you forgot to take this morning I think you need to remember to take it tommorow.

And some of us attend university (so we can alter work for a living) AND have a job (so we can pay for the emans to alter work for a living). I forgot though, that the Canadian military is such a joke that it doens't count as employment, right?

The counterstrike comments were based off your presumptions about tactics and how I play the game, plus your apparent level of maturity. Any idiot can come on the Tippmann forums and start making dumb posts like 'OMG! Five pounds! Herculese!!!' Previous to this we were having a relatively intelligent discussion. If you'd kindly bugger off I'd like to continue discussing the relevant stuff with thsoe interested in the subject matter- namely the marker in question, its impact on the MilSim style of play, and the comparison of that style of play to other style which other people favour. If you think that MilSim markers are too heavy you can go to pbnation and circlejerk with the die-hard speedballers.

My typing (and consequently spelling) is occasionally atrocious, but my grammar is close to impeccable. Don't overgeneralize your flames- they tend to rebound. And your last comment does not negate the truth that you showed up in this thread without anything intelligent to say and started spouting off drivel, thus provoking my retaliatory comments. You've managed to reduce jsut about everything else to a fifth-grade level though, so I suppose a 'he started it!, no he did!' comparison oughtn't surprise me. Thsoe backed into logical corners often slip into redundancy and a declining downward spiral of increasingly pathetic flames.

Now please, go ruin someone else's thread, or else post something intelligent about the SP8 marker and possibly redeem yourself somewhat.

i do believe the sp8 is modded off the gun the military is adopting to replace the m16 line.

Talk to Rouge from RPG. We were was discussing the ION's huge problems, downfalls, unreliabilty, ect. This man knows his stuff. Im not going to argue about it though. And someones going to say "yeah because you dont know what your talking about." For the most part, yeah, but from what he knows, hah.

if you find it let me know.

btw, pbreview.com doesn't always get it right but its a great site. that  saved me from making a couple of HUGE mistakes.

Like the Pinto, great, cheap, perfect car that everyone wanted, untill they discovered the gas tank would instantly bust open, spill and burn under the car while the doors would be smashed shut when even slightly rear-ended. Christ why am I arguing.

yes why are you arguing? people update their reviews all the time on pbreview.com. and just because something gets bad reviews doesnt mean people are not going to buy it. it is just things that other people noticed that you should take into consideration. thats all.

Check your attitude, you're coming off as a jerk to anyone with half a brain that reads this thread.

And if you're going to complain about the weight of a paintball marker if its 5 pounds....I dont think I need to worry about ever having you mad at me.

No I left work for the day and yes my comments about the Canadian Army was stupid and I apologize.

Well at least the Mods can flame too I see. So is that a sign to keep the flame fest going? I would rather not. I just know that when I grow up I wanna be just like Brihard....Blowhard or whatever his name is. 

Take care my love

Let me refresh that very short memory of yours Brihard about how this all started....

It's pathetic that people can't stand the thought of carrying a five pound object around all day. Bloody hell. If the MilSim marker's that damned heavy put a sling on it, or something, but don't whine that it's 'too heavy' because it weighs more than your TV remote.

I found that to be flame worthy and I took ofense to his comments obviously directed towards me. If Brihard wants to keep thinking he is the hero and all that, hey that's fine. But here in the real world I see it how it is. If you would get off that pompus, stuck up butt of yours you would realize you started the trashing up of these forums with your wild assumtions about me personally, like for example my family life, my work, my physical shape and appearence and so on.

Then the The mod comes in and basically condones this type of forum activity and continues with the flame fest. Great work guys, yeah I may look like the "jerk" but I know I'm not the only one here.

The fact that it's based off a real firearm doesn't make it any prettier.
