We call our paint .68 caliber, but truthfully, it generally ranges from around .675 to .690. In the "olden days," paint would typically trend on the larger end of that scale. Lately, it's been on the small side. Many players opt for a barrel kit with different size bores to accommodate different size paint they may experience. It does tend to vary from brand to brand and even from batch to batch.

As stated before i'm new to paintball. Can any hopper fit on any gun?

Would the Empire Halo Too Paintball Loader fit on the Alpha Black?

the rip clip and cyclone will only fit on tippmans. I can't think of another hopper that isn't universal.

Thanks a lot, I think with the Cyclone theres to much of a chance of it chopping the paint and I don't want that hassle so I think I'm going to go with the Halo Too unless someone has a reason I shouldn't...

halo too is a great hopper and can go onto any marker down the road.

why has nobody mentioned the mask yet!?

you guys fail

work on getting a better mask, you cant shoot what you cant see and a comfortable mask is key to a fun day of play

Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, that makes a firearm better makes a paintball marker worse. They are 2 very different worlds with nothing except a trigger in common

For the money the empire helix and the proto switch are great masks as long as you get the thermal versions
