New Paintball Tank Options for CO2 and Nitro

A few new air options hit the website late last week. For those of you looking for a factory installed on/off valve for a 20oz CO2 tank, Smart Parts has come to the rescue. This complete unit from Smart Parts features their famed 'Smart Valve'. The new Smart Parts Smart Valve includes one very important feature: a built in safety device. This device includes a second set of threads on the valve that extends into the tank. If the valve should be accidentally unsecrewed at the sealing threads under pressure, the valve will be retaining inside the tank due to the second set of threads on the valve neck. Very smart and very safe! Also included on the Smart Valve is the on/off knob that allows you to cut the air flow to your gun with a simple turn.

Nitro lovers will love our new 62/3000 Nitro Paintball Tank. At $70, it's an economic alternative to carbon fiber units of similar size. Nitro or compressed air will dramatically change the shooting characteristics of your marker. No more freeze-ups common to CO2 which also equates to less velocity changes and drop-offs. A five year hydrotest date assures that you'll get plenty of fills before the tank needs retesting. If you've been looking to get into a nitrogen system for your set-up, this is the most cost effective option on the paintball market today.


Both the Smart Parts 20oz Smart Valve Tank and the 62/3000 Paintball Nitro Tank are available at http://www.rockstartactical.com/. Checkout all the new and exciting products to hit our website by clicking on the New Arrivals product category.

Hater Paintball Lube

Hater Paintball offers some of the best lube on the market for today's paintball guns. There are two versions available: Hater Sauce and Hater Marmalade. Hater Sauce is a great lube for lower pressure markers with low pressure regs. It allows you to further reduce the pressure without sacrificing velocity. Less pressure usually means less kick! One jar will last you a long, long time. Hater Sauce is also available in a 2oz jar. Perfect for the community tool box that supports your team.

Hater Marmalade is another great lube option. Thicker than the Hater Sauce, Marmalade is a great all purpose lubricant that will stay were you put it. Perfect for just about any paintball marker out there today. Hater Marmalade is the 'go to lube' of top players around the world. Whether your playing tournament or woods, rebuilding or maintaining, make sure you add Hater Paintball products for smooth and optimal performance.

Smart Parts SP1 Blackheart Release

There's no question that 2008 was good for Smart Parts with the introduction of their SP1. The Smart Parts SP1 offers tournament level performance at an entry level price all wrapped in a tactical shell. Over the past year, more and more companies have taken notice of the SP1's popularity and have set out to create new and exciting aftermarket add-on parts and accessories for the SP1.

Smart Parts has also been hard at work creating new SP1 versions and upgrades. Recently, Smart Parts announced the release of the new SP1 Blackheart Board. This is the same Blackheart board that has helped so many achieve insane levels of performance and adjustability in other Smart Parts markers like the ION. Smart Parts offers the SP1 with Blackheart Board installed or as a separate upgrade from existing SP1 owners. The Blackheart Board will also be available for the Vibe as well. Also fresh out of the factory is the Smart Parts SP1 Tactical version. The SP1 Tactical includes some of the mandatory sniper accessories like a 16" Sniper Barrel, Folding Bipod and a Collapsible Stock. The SP1 Tactical will also be offered with the Blackheart board installed.

Quick Release Paintball Weaver Riser

Once in a while a new product emerges that really grabs our attention. The new AR Weaver Riser Mount is one of those products. We have offered a ton of riser/mount options on the website over the years, but none have had the flexibility of the quick release feature.


The rail itself will accept any 7/8 mounted accessory (any scope or sight with a 7/8" or weaver base). The mount bracket on the Quick Release AR Weaver Riser also mounts to any 7/8" tactical top rail. It also fits the hybrid dovetail rail used on the Tippmann A5 and older Tippmann 98 Custom markers. The quick release bar allows you to add or remove the rail assembly in seconds, literally! Crank the bar back in line with the mount and the riser is secure to the paintball gun.

Anyone that's been around the scenario market a while knows that there can be slight variations in receiver widths and mounting surfaces. One of the crucial features on the AR Quick Release Riser is the side adjustment screw. You may find that the factory set-up of the riser does not fit securely to your marker. If this is the case, then simply remove the nut from the adjustment screw. Turn the screw clockwise a few times and retry on the paintball gun. The side screw makes small adjustments to the width of the mounting bracket. Once you find the right width, retighten the nut to the screw to lock it in place. The rail is now setup for your paintball marker and ready to accept any weaver based accessory. Checkout our paintball scope options for the perfect optics to complete your scenario marker.

TechT Paintball Zero Kick Hammer

TechT Paintball is taking the New Years resolution of losing weight to new levels! Fresh out of the factory is the TechT Paintball Zero Kick Hammer. This new Hammer is guaranteed to drastically reduce the kick of your marker by reducing the weight by 50%. This results in not only less kick but increased rate of fire, decreased dwell, smoother operation and longer wear life.


These little babies should be in stock by early to mid next week. Better yet, Tippmann A5, 98 and X7 owners will not be the only ones that will be able to use the Zero Kick Hammer. The US Army and the BT-4 paintball guns are also compatible. Which makes up roughly 90% of the woodsball world! Just one more way TechT Paintball has managed to squeeze more performance out of a paintball marker. Thank you guys! We'll help do our part to keep the weight off this year!

Milsig Paintball Guns

If you're a hardcore woodsballer you may already be familiar with Milsig Paintball Guns. Milsig Industries (Military Special Interest Group) produces some of the most authentic markers in scenario paintball. So much so that military and police groups around the world use the Milsig markers for training.

Milsig's flagship marker is the Milsig K-Series paintball gun. The unique feature of this gun is that it's one of only a few paintball markers capable of being loaded via a magazine. The marker can be switched to a hopper-fed or mag-fed gun at any time with no permenant modifications required. Unlike other guns on the market, the K-Series is made primarily of metal with an aluminum alloy receiver, steel rail and sights. The K-Series is flexible with air set-ups as well. You have the options of using a bottomline kit, remote into an ASA or a specially fitted stock that houses a CO2 reserve.

Already have a Tippmann A5? Well, you are going to love this one. The K-Series utilizes an A5 style stock and also an A5 threaded barrel. This allows the K-Series to accept the vast amount of barrel kits and stocks on the market for the A5.

We are currently offering the K-Series in 4 versions: Milsig K-Series Field, K-Series Commando Non-Mag Fed, K-Series Commando Mag Fed and the K-Series Elite. Parts are available to convert any base model K-Series to other higher-end models. We hope to have a complete line of Milsig accessories available for purchase on the website very soon. At this time, Milsig markers are in short supply in the US and could take up to 72 hours to ship.

Trinity BT T-Lock Feedneck

Fresh from of the Trinity facility comes another version of Trinity's famed T-Lock. The new BT T-Lock Feedneck is an aluminum replacement to the standard plastic feedneck found on most BT paintball guns. Installation is quick and easy, no permenant modifications required. The inside of the feedneck has a textured area that allows the inside to better grip and hold the neck of the loader. Tension on the loader is controlled by a thumbscrew attached to the locking mechanism. Simply tighten the thumbscrew and the locking bar becomes harder to close as its holding power on the loader becomes stronger.

This T-Lock will work with just about any loader/hopper on the market today. Most manufactures' feednecks have one inherent flaw: holding power. Nothing is more frustrating than your loader moving or popping off during movement due to the weight of the paintballs inside the loader. The Trinity Paintball T-Locks are a breath of fresh air and well worth the money to avoid the aggrevation. The Trinity T-Lock is available for many of the popular markers on the market today.
