Killjoy Industries APR Adjustable Picatinny Rail

Scopes are a favorite tactical accessory for most woodball gun owners. A good red dot sight can center your focus on one objective for a more controlled shot. The issue with the use of scopes in paintball concerns the inherit flight path of a paintball once it's shot from the gun. At varying distances, most paintballs will lose velocity and arch towards the ground. This can also happen with the use of some gases such as CO2 when a high rate of fire is sustained.

Killjoy Industries has released another innovative product that most paintball scope users are going to love. The Killjoy Adjustable Picatinny Rail (APR) is really two products in one. First it acts as a riser mount allowing your scope or red dot sight to sit 1.5" higher on your top receiver rail. This is important for issues such as 'goggle clearance' when using a rear stock on your marker. Also, the top scope rail is adjustable to help compensate for drop-off. Simply adjust the scope from 0-5 degrees using the front thumb screw and lock it in place using the side screw. This allows you to compensate for the down arch of a paintball as it begins to lose velocity at varying distances.

The Killjoy Adjustable Picatinny Rail is about 4" long and works well paintball guns that have a top picatinny style rail on the receiver (Tippmann X7, US Army Project Salvo or even the Tippmann A5 with the Tippmann Flattop Rail). Its beautifully machined from durable aluminum and anodized dust black with silky smooth mechanics.
