the most convienient breakdown EVER!!!

so heres what happened, i was starting to find it hard to get parts for my aging smart parts impulse, not to mention it is very heavy, so i decided to replace it, did a bunch of research, asked a bunch of questions and decided on a dm6, got the new marker, but it had to visit the shop for my stupidity so i took the impulse out one last time before its retirement, it preformed great, just the other day i took it out to clean it one last time, got it nice and shinny and test fired it a few times (no air just clicking the noid) and i noticed it wasnt firing the noid every time i pulled the trigger, so i tracked the problem down, there is a short in one of the wires that goes to the noid! so not only did it break AFTER i had already purchased a new marker but it did it at home!, LOL, i think im gunna keep it as two things, A) a back up and b) a good luck charm, lol just wanted to share

well im off to go pick up the dm6 from the shop

brand new battery, when i took the noid out when i would hold it at certain angles it wouldnt fire, so thats telling me theres a short in one of the wires that lead to it, i may just try to solder on some new wire, if it doesnt work o well,

ya so my local shop is retarded and the only tech they have hasnt been in all week, so the dm6 is SupPOsEd to be done tomorrow, but then again this was only SupPoSed to take 3 days, tomorrow marks a week

so i FINALLY got it back today, and it was still leaking so i used a bunch of plumbers tape very carefully and sealed everything up ( i hope) but it is shooting like a dream, you guys that already have dms or pm probbably already know, but iv never had anything that shoots so fast or so quieltly, just throwing a firehose of paint onto a birdhouse in the backyard sure was fun.

so at this point i think i payed splat attack $35 to chrono in my marker for a week...... im just happy to have it back

I played at their outdoor field a few years back when I started playing, but never got around to their indoor.

i really enjoyed the indoor field, it was small and fast, as long as they would keep the bunkers inflated it was great, sometimes it got a little crouded though. I havnt tried the one in Tacoma but iv kinda head some mixed reviews about it, and now that the weather is getting better it will be easier to go to SA

o so i took the dm6 out yesterday and played some woodsball, shot great.....after the first game, but ill ask that question in the Dye thred

as for the impulse, it wont click the noid at all anymore, so maybe this is it trying to punish me for buying a new marker lol

Yeah that happens sometimes. I had an Ipod Shuffle, and still do. But, anyways I then got a Nano and that went through the washer. I had to return to the shuffle. Then I got an Ipod Video and someone stole it, once again causing me to return to my shuffle. But now, I have a Touch so it's all good.(seriously knock on some hard wood.) Oh and btw I got all of the previous Ipods for free.
