Lapco T8.1 and T9.1 First Strike Barrels

Lapco has been a leader in cutting-edge barrel designs for years. They recently set their sights on the very popular Tiberius First Strike paintball guns. The new Lapco Str8shot T8.1/T9.1 First Strike Paintball Barrels are made specifically for the '.1' version of Tiberius' markers.

Lapco T9.1 Paintball Barrels

These barrels are beautifully milled with an outer milsim style, anodized matte black finish. Just like the Lapco Big Shot Assault barrel, the Str8shot T8.1/T9.1 offer a 7/8-20 forward tip thread. This allows you to use any number of 7/8-20 threaded tips on the market (Hammerhead, CP, Lapco, Tiberius... etc.). The barrels we offer are made in the .686 bore which is best for shooting both First Strike Rounds as well as conventional .68 cal paintballs. Superior accuracy and consistency with a micro-honed, self cleaning inner bore is just a few of the reasons Lapco continues to stay at the top of the paintball barrel aftermarket.

Thousands of BT Apex barrels have hit the fields and backwoods over the years. The patented design of the BT Apex Tip allows the user to curve his shot, making impossible shots... possible. It allows a paintball to curve around trees, hard drive below bunkers or shot straight with great accuracy. The popularity of the BT Apex has even spawned an entire aftermarket of 'Apex Ready Barrels', milled specifically to accept the Apex Tip. The new BT Apex 2 Barrel was just released, offering a better design and more performance.

Empire BT Apex2 Barrel

The Empire Battle Tested Apex2 Tip is leaner and longer than the original version. The outer casing is made from aluminum, guaranteeing it will stand up to just about any abuse that you can dish it. The Apex2 adjuster now allows for greater sensitivity with 9 settings that click into place. Tool-less disassembly allows for easy cleaning. The BT Apex2 is destined to achieve even higher levels of popularity than its predecessor.

The BT Apex2 Paintball Barrel is available in 14" and 18" models in three thread patterns: Tippmann A5, Tippmann 98 and Autococker. Check out the new

TechT MRT Pro Series Bolt for the X7 Phenom

TechT has released the latest in a line of MRT bolts for the X7 Phenom. The TechT MRT Pro Series Phenom Bolt is a delrin/aluminum hybrid bolt. The hybrid design increases the efficiency and speed of the Phenom. It's light and it's fast, and it does a good job of sealing off the barrel with the soft face tip. Each MRT Pro Series Phenom Bolt includes the new Phaze 5 Fitting by TechT. The stainless steel fitting replaces the stock plastic fitting the ports the air from the receiver to the cyclone.

New Designz Phenom High Flow Hose Fitting

Better airflow in any paintball gun is always a good thing. Some of the parts included at the factory can be a little restrictive on a marker, preventing it from reaching peak performance. The New Designz Phenom CFS Fitting is designed to allow the cyclone feed on the X7 Phenom to breathe easier by increasing the port size of the fitting that exits the receiver and provides the cyclone with air to function.

New Designz Phenom CFS Fitting

The ND Phenom high flow fitting increases the port size about 47% over the stock fitting. The X7 Phenom functions at a lower pressure, around 300 psi. There is a minimum pressure rating required for the Cyclone Feed to continue to shuttle balls into the receiver. This the reason why your cyclone will stop feeding once the pressure in your tank is very low. Low pressure source means the gun has less pressure to function and therefore the pressure to function the cyclone could be below required minimums to operate properly.

The larger ported fitting means less restriction and better air flow. New Designz has tested and is reporting that the
CFS Phenom Air Fitting offers smoother cyclone operation even at pressures well below 200 psi. This means your cyclone will continue to function even at critical pressure levels. Best part is that it's only $6.99!

Paintball Bipods: New Additions and Old Favorites

The idea of using a paintball bipod is one of those topics that is hotly debated in the scope of paintball. Some players use 'em, others feel they have no use for 'em. The reality is whether or not a bipod is applicable to you depends on your playing style and personal preference in gear. No, it's not practical to add a paintball bipod to a tournament marker. But if you own a scenario marker that's decked-out with all the hottest upgrades, using a bipod tends to make more sense.

Woodsball and scenario events are not as fast-paced as tournament style games. Players are able to take cover, gather information regarding the other team's position and develope a general game plan of how to move forward. Military style paintball guns can be heavy. Body kits, stocks, shrouds and all the jaw dropping accessories add weight to even the lightest factory markers. Many players who choose to use a bipod do so because they tend to sit back and provide cover for forward moving players. They take on more of a sniper role in which their position is mostly fixed. They rely on the bipod for a number of reasons. First and most obvious, it provides stability. The shooter is able to take a cleaner shot and also make slight adjustments to correct ball placement by simply pivoting on the bipod. Secondly, it allows the shooter to free-up the forward hand. This allows a player to use that hand for other things such as reloading, adjusting a scope and even working communication equipment while the other hand stays on the trigger and the marker is aimed, ready to be fired.

Bipod for Paintball Gun

Paintball bipods mainly differ in leg length and the means by which they attach to your weapon. There are a ton of options out there and models available to meet your exact needs. The most universal bipod is one that attaches to the barrel itself. This is normally via a clamp that goes around the barrel. Another popular method to attach a paintball bipod is to a picatinny style rail on the lower front part of the receiver or on the barrel shroud itself. Most RIS (rail interface system) style shrouds have top, bottom and side rails. The bottom rail provides the perfect mounting point to attach the bipod. Most have a quick release function that allows you to remove the bipod easily for cleaning or storage. Just about every bipod folds up and out of the way. You can reverse the folding direction to allow the bipod to fully collapse depending on the mount position and how much clearance you have in regards to the gun's receiver.

Our latest bipod additions include the NcSTAR ABPGC Bipod and ABPGF Bipod. The only difference being the overall length of the legs. ABPGC is a compact model while the other is the full length version. The unique feature of this bipod is the flexibility of the mounting. It includes 3 adapters to allow the bipod to attach to your marker in a variety of ways. This allows the bipod to be almost universal and be able to be applied to just about any marker out there. Take a look the growing number of paintball bipods that ROCKSTAR Tactical offers for your scenario marker.

Sly Profit Goggles: New Colors and Limited Editions

The Sly Profit Paintball Goggles have been wildly popular since their initial release a few months back. The high-end features of the Sly Profit prove that this was no 'quick release' from the factory - but a lot of time and energy devoted to getting it right the first time.

The two main features of the Sly Profit Goggle System are the lens system and soft-shell mask. The thermal lens offers a large viewing area along with a patent-pending quick release system. The soft shell mask molds to your face, providing one of the most comfortable fits available today. Internally, the lens area is lined with soft-cell foam for maximum comfort. Even the ear region received padding, which also aids in comfort and helps reduce mask movement while promoting directional hearing.

Sly Profit Goggles

We have many of the hot 'woodsball' colors available for the Sly Goggles. Our original offering of Black, Tan and Camo has been added to with the Sly's release of the Olive and Dark ACU Profit Goggles. There is now a color or pattern to coordinate with all your woodsball gear! Sly Profit goggles retail for $89.95, which the LE (Limited Edition) color go for $99.95. Stop by the website and see the latest hot color addition: Sly Profit Goggle - Dark ACU.

Paintball Grips: Options for Scenario Players

P86VGY66EYAK

At ROCKSTAR Tactical, we pride ourselves on offering a wide range of products that not only look good, but serve players well in the field. Our
paintball grips category has grown substantially over the years. Scenario and Milsim paintball guns can be heavy. Adding a longer barrel with a barrel shroud and front sight can often make the marker feel 'front heavy' and off-balance. Adding a front paintball grip can help balance the gun, providing a more comfortable, ergonomic feel.

We offer a large variety of grips for paintball guns. Most are universal and slide onto a standard lower receiver or barrel mounted mil-spec picatinny or weaver rail (this is the standard 7/8" rail). From composite to aluminum, folding to stationary... we have you covered. Most models come in a variety of colors to match other components like paintball stocks and rail covers.

Magpul AFG Paintball Grip

We are excited to introduce two new offerings to our paintball grip category. The new Magpul AFG is a low profile fore grip that combines a sleek look with an ergonomic design. Another new addition includes the Combat Aluminum Light Grip Kit. This flashlight/grip slides onto any picatinny/weaver rail providing both a solid aluminum base for handling as well as optional flashlight capabilities. Just slide your thumb up from the rear of the grip and press the button for instant light. Side bar and quick release allow you to easily remove the grip for cleaning and marker maintenance. Stop by today and see what options ROCKSTAR Tactical has for your marker.

The shoulder seams are sewn much like other paintball jerseys, allowing maximum comfort and mobility in the field. The sleeves feature small pockets on both sides. This allows you to store tools, parts or a map for quick access. Both pockets are overlayed with velco to easily attach an ID badge or patch. The wrists have an integrated velco strap that helps keep the jersey secure and covering the arms at all times. Sizes range from small to 2xl and follow along the overall fit of adult t-shirt sizes.

Empire Batttle Test Trracer Pump Marker

There was a lot of buzz about the new Empire BT Trracer Pump Marker that appeared on Empire/BT's new website. People have been asking if it was in and how much this baby was going to go for. We are happy to report that the Trracer Pumps have arrived and they are hot looking!

Empire Trracer Pump Paintball Gun

Empire took the old Trracer design and gave it a more modern overhaul. The barrel is autococker threaded which allows you most of the cocker threaded barrels on the market. Rail space... it has plenty. Both the top receiver and the pump handle have picatinny style rails for adding any combination of tactical accessories. You can really mod this thing out!

The main receiver of the Trracer is made from aluminum while the top rail overlay and pump grip are made from durable, lightweight plastic. You will need a hopper with the Trracer and a CO2 or compressed air paintball tank. The Trracer is compatible with either. Everything else is included in the kit. Empire Trracer's retail for $119.99 and is the perfect gift for the 'old schooler' or pump gun lover on your Christmas list. Initial quantities were limited, so grab yours today!

Virtue Paintball A5/X7 Crowns

The Virtue Crown Loader Lid has become very popular over the years. You'll find them on a variety of markers in the woods and/or speedball courses, basically anyone looking to increase loading time. The Virtue Crown replaces the stock lid on the loader. It provides for a one-way quick feed of the hopper without opening and closing the lid. Balls are prevented from exiting by the specially designed lid insert. Specific Crowns are made for specific models of hoppers, the most popular being the Halo loader Crown which uses a lid similar to many loading systems on the market today. Virtue has just released the latest to the lineup of lid replacements with the Virtue A5/X7 Crown.

Virtue X7 Crown

The
Virtue A5/X7 Crown replaces the lid on any of the Cyclone Feed style hoppers. It can also be used on many of the BT Rip Clip hoppers as well. The original Virtue Halo Crown could be used on the A5/X7 hoppers although it required removal of the bottom bracket to do so. Virtue has eliminated this step by offering an A5/X7 Crown that is a direct lid replacement. The best part is that you only get and pay for what you need. X7 Crowns are cheaper than Virtue's Halo models.

Standard Virtue A5 X7 Crowns run $16.99. Ultra Soft versions run $19.99 and are available in a few different colors. Anything to make you faster in the field is a good thing. The Virtue Crowns allow you to reload quickly without hassle and fumbling opening and closing of 'hard to shut' lids. You'll have the assurance that your rounds will stay in the hopper during heavy movement. Use one on all your Cyclone Feed hoppers and gain an advantage in the woods.

New Designz Turbo Valve Housing: Tippmann and BT

Will all the powertubes on the market, many players wonder why no one ever focused on the heart of the air system: the valve assembly. New Designz has done just that with the release of the New Designz Turbo Valve Housing for the A5, X7 and BT4 paintball guns (basically markers that use the Tippmann valve design).


New Designz Turbo Valve Housing

Install of the Turbo Valve Housing is basically a direct replacement of the stock valve. The internal parts of the valve assembly are not included, therefore you'll need to reinstall your factory parts as specified in your marker's manual. The New Designz Turbo Valve Housing has a custom design body which features a ramped inlet and exhaust port, a smaller front port and a 3rd top port. This all equates to improved air flow and better marker efficiency. It's beautifully anodized in red which obviously adds to the cool factor.

Get the New Designz Turbo Valve Housing along with other New Designz Tippmann upgrades from RCOKSTAR Tactical. As an authorized dealer, we get all the latest New Designz products including the
Phenom Spitfire Bolt.

Flasc Paintball: Marker Upgrades, Barrels and Tips

Flasc Paintball is a Canadian manufacturer of quality barrels and gun upgrades for the milsim, scenario and woodsball market. Their flagship product is the Flasc double threaded barrel which is available in many configurations and barrel threads. These high quality aftermarket paintball barrels also offer the flexibility to swap out front tips. Allowing you to achieve a different look in seconds. Tippmann A5/X7, 98, Autococker, TPX and Tiberius T8.1... there's a thread pattern available for any marker and a tip to match any style.

Flasc Paintball Barrel

We recently got in the Tiberius 8.1 Double Threaded Barrel upgrade. This barrel will also accept a variety of tips and extensions. The Flasc Extensions allow you to achieve 11", 13", even 16" in length without the cost of purchasing another barrel system. With so many options available in one barrel, you’ll never need to buy another one. With accuracy and distance at its finest, Flasc Barrels will help take your game to the next level.

Not only does Flasc chur out some high-end barrels, they also produce some innovative upgrades for many of the most popular paintball guns on the market. They recently released the
Flasc Rip Clip Adapter for the A5 and another for the X7. Now A5/X7 owners can experience the patented Halo technology for themselves. The RIP Clip will also accept all the current cyclone hoppers, no need to buy a bunch more. Even the stock X7 low profile hopper fits perfectly.

Flasc Rip Clip Adapter

Original BT Rip Clip BT-4 owners have asked for a more sensitive mic for Rip Clip activation. BT made the mics more sensitive in the TM Series Rip Clip because of the extremely low pressure operation of the marker. Now available are the Flasc Rip Clip Mics for BT4 and 98 Rip Clip units. The mics are more sensitive like the TM series giving you better feed activation and less mis-loads and mis-fires.

Paintball Camo Overalls: One Piece Woodsball Clothing

If you've gone to a commercial paintball field before, you're familiar with the paper based camo suits being sold. These $5-10 single-use suits are good for someone who wants instant camouflage from the neck down. Although convenient, these paintball overalls normally tear pretty quickly. Total use is a few hours resulting in the player throwing the badly worn and torn suit away.

Normal paintball camo pants and jerseys can run a good bit of money depending on the manufacturer. If you want an 'all-in-one' solution to field camo without breaking the bank, try our new paintball camo overalls. These camo overalls come in the ACU digital color pattern: one of the most popular types of camouflage used in the woods today. The paintball suit is made from a durable cotton/polyester blend that's both washable and reusable. Just step inside, zip the main zipper and you're ready to play! You'll save money and the frustration of dealing with a $10, single-use paper suit.

Paintball Camo Overalls

Our paintball camo overalls come in four sizes. Sizes are based on adult t-shirt sizes, therefore if you wear an adult medium, you'd go with the medium overalls. We carry sizes ranging from small to 2XL. Each suit has 5 small zippered pockets, velco wrist straps and ankle zippers for adjusting the width around boots and shoes. Additional features include a front patch section for adding your ID or favorite velco patch as well as vented underarms for releasing heat. It all adds up to a great value!

Take a look at the new camo paintball overalls and all the camouflage paintball clothing available through ROCKSTAR Tactical Systems.

Problem with Tippmann Flatline: We have the Fix

Even after years and years of great success, the Tippmann Flatline Barrel is still one of the most popular barrels for Tippmann A5 owners. With an additional 100 feet of flat trajectory, it's not hard to see why the Flatline is among the most popular barrels in the woods. The unique inner design allows the barrel to impart a spin on the paintball; this spin helps the ball resist the forces acting on it as it flies out of the barrel and across the field at the opposing players. The spin is the secret to the success of the Tippmann Flatline barrel.

Although the Tippmann Flatline is loved by so many and still remains the 'go to' barrel for a lot of players, it's also the source of a lot of frustration for some. Understanding a few key points about the Flatline (as well as paintball barrels in general) will do wonders for your performance on the field. You may have read or heard many people describe the Flatline as 'picky when it comes to paint'.

That could be said for any barrel that is not a barrel 'kit' (with multiple bore attachments). The Flatline has 1 bore size, therefore is best matched with paintballs of similar caliber. You'll get lousy performance from any barrel that isn't matched well to the paint that is being used. But does quality really count? You bet it does... Cheap or old paint will give you issues not matter what barrel you're using. Higher priced paint tends to be more consistent in shape and size. With more consistent ball size, you're able to get better results shot to shot. Buy quality stuff that matches the bore of the barrel and your distance and accuracy will be optimal for your set-up.

If you called Tippmann and asked for a recommendation regarding paintballs that could be used with the Flatline, they'd probably tell you RPS Marballizer. They have traditionally used Marballizers for Flatline testing. It's our experience that a quality paintball in the high .68's (.688, .689) works well with the inner barrel of the Flatline. We always get great results with Marbs in the Flatline barrel.

Next is maintenance. 'Barrel' maintenance you ask? That's right, especially when it comes to the A5 Flatline Barrel. Believe it or not, some players don't realize that the Flatline has multiple pieces. The A5 Flatline has 4 parts: the barrel, shroud and two end caps. You can disassemble the Flatline and clean it. There is one important thing to remember when you re-assemble your barrel. The barrel must be lined-up properly to the rear A5 end cap. This is easy because Tippmann marks the barrel with an indicator line. You need to make sure the line on the barrel is in the middle of the set screw port on the rear end cap. Once you do this, you’re ready to reassemble and your Flatline is properly aligned.

With a little maintenance and understanding about proper paintball matching, you can get optimal performance out of any barrel. The Tippmann Flatline Barrel is no exception to this rule. For more detailed pics, take a look at our Tippmann A5 Flatline problem article on the website.

Pinokio A5P Hopper System

The long awaited Pinokio A5P hopper is finally here. Cyclone feed system and Rip Clip owners are going to love the new Pinokio A5P. It attaches to your loading system like the factory hopper offering you more carry capacity options along with a much sleeker, low profile design.

Pinokio

The Pinokio A5 Loader comes standard with 2 capacity configurations. Stay light and quick with the 200rd nose attachment. If you like to lay down serious paint but hate the constant reloading, opt for the included 4oord nose attachment. The longer 400rd nose stays streamline with your marker, staying horizontal eliminates a taller profile and therefore a bigger target. Both noses are very easy to attach and remove. The Pinokio A5P will also allow you to maintain the centerline view which is important for sighting.

A5P Pinokio Hoppers are in stock and shipping. It is compatible with all Tippmann Cyclone Feed Systems (A5, X7, Phenom, 98, US Army) as well as all BT and Tippmann markers using the BT Rip Clip Loader. Swing by today and check them out!

BT Paintball: Limited Edition TM-15 Terrapat, Woodland and Desert

BT Paintball (now under the Empire paintball line of products) has released a few different color versions of one of the hottest paintball guns to ever hit the woods. The TM-15 Limited Edition is now available for Terrapat, Woodland Camo and Desert. These new durable finishes are a perfect compliment to match just about any style camo and/or playing environment.

BT TM-15 Terrapat Paintball

Camo is designed to break-up the outline of our body to help us remain undetected by the scanning eye. One issue is camouflaging the gun. Most players do not put much effort into camouflage for their paintball marker. You can use a bushrag gun cover to compliment camo such as a ghillie suit. You can also go the pain-staking route of painting your gun to a particular camo style. By far the most time efficient and cost effective way is to purchase your marker with a factory camo finish.

BT TM-15 Woodland Camo Paintball

The Terrapat TM-15 paintball gun, along with the woodland and desert versions, have all the same features as the original black version. Electropneumatic operating system, magnesium receiver, 4 firing modes and no external airlines are just a few of its long list of features. The TM-15 took the woodsball world by storm with its Invert Mini-like efficiency, performance and over-all technology. Don't miss out on your chance for this time limited offer. Psst... TM7 Limited Edition colors are on the way!

NEW! TechT MRT Phenom Bolt

With the recent release of the Mechanical X7 Phenom, its clear that the Phenom version of the X7 is the future for Tippmann's revolutionary woodsball gun. The Mechanical Phenoms have been going quickly and new Phenom parts and upgrades have been really popping up. TechT Paintball always has its thumb on the pulse of the market especially when it comes to the needs of Tippmann's owners. TechT gave a sneak peak of its new Phenom bolt at a recent convention in CA last month. It's now in full production and intial runs are on their way out to dealers, ready to take your X7 Phenom to even higher levels of performance and efficiency.

TechT Phenom MRT Bolt

The TechT Phenom MRT Bolt System is an extension of the wildly successfull line of MRT (mass reduction technology) paintball gun bolt upgrade kits. TechT's unique milled design shaves off 64% of the weight in comparison to the stock bolt and the added soft tip helps reduce the amount of ball breaks as well. Testing shows that the Phenom MRT Bolt provides an increase of 30 fps over stock. This allows you run a more efficiently, smoother cycling marker. Another smart, performance upgrade from the boys at TechT Paintball.

Paintball Tips: Most Underated Advice

We obviously get a lot of questions about products from existing customers and others browsing the web. We also get our fair share of questions coming from newbies and other first time players who don't play often but want to better their game. One question we always get is 'how can I stay in the game longer and why are the same people always the last guys out'?

The obvious answer to the question is to not get shot, lol! But there's a little more to than that! First time and occasional players are typically nervous and a little 'gung ho'. They start slinging paint from the minute the horn sounds. They typically give away their position immediately and suffer a rain of fire coming down on them from every angle. This locks a player in the spot he or she is in, resulting in a kill and a lonely walk back to the staging area.

The best advice for anyone looking to stay in the game longer is very easy. Be patient! Get to your spot and wait. Don't fire for a few minutes, don't give your position away. Take those few first minutes to do a little recon on the movement of the opposing force. Listen to the shots being fired from their nervous newbies. Get a feel for where your teammates are and the general topography of the field and the obstables in front of you. Always figure out where your next move is going to be before you start firing. This gives yourself an exit stategy and a new place to take cover. Never move to a bunker or cover that will lock you in for more than a few minutes. Your first shots are going to give your position away.

Calm your nerves and keep your finger off the trigger for the first few minutes of your next woodsball game. You'll stay in the fight much longer which not only makes you a more valued player on your team but builds your confidence each and every time you head to the field.

JT QLS Paintball Goggle Systems

JT USA has been in the paintball game for decades. Their goggle systems have always been the flagship product of their line-up over the years. JT has been worn around the faces of pros and first time players alike. JT's new launch of goggles continues to offer something for everyone and every price range.

The central feature of the new JT goggles is the QLS lens system. QLS stands for 'Quicklock Lens System' which allows the player to easily remove and reinstall the lens in seconds. This allows players to thoroughly clean their lens without the hassle experienced with other systems on the market. All the QLS goggles have a 270 degree field of vision, one of the largest spectrums on the market. The paintball goggles won't make you feel like you have tunnel vision or blinders on.

JT Carnivore Mask

The JT Carnivore Goggle is offered in two models: standard and full-head coverage. The single, anti-fog lens is a great system for occasional players and those looking for a great value. The JT Reaper goggle system includes an anti-fog lens, redesigned low-profile visor and adjustable chin strap. The Reaper mask also has a gel skirt covering the mouth/jaw area. This not only adds to the protection factor around the jaw area but also allows the player to swap out for other skirts of different colors. The JT Status Thermal Goggles is the top of the line system offered by JT. Its features include a thermo-cured lens, narrowed jaw line and the 270 degree lens that also allows the goggle system to fit over most eye-glasses.

PB Water Pods: Hydration on the Go!

For those looking for a simple solution to staying hydrated on the field, Pbwater Pods brings you an innovative product. The new PbWaterPod is a water canteen shaped like a standard 140rd paintball tube. The waterpod is inserted into the pod pocket on any paintball harness or tactical vest system. Water is within easy reach. This is perfect for those wanting to carry water onto a field that may be a good distance away from the staging area or even known civilization!

PBWater Pod

For those of you looking for hydration while you play, the PBwater Pod is also offered with a drink tube. Models are available with either an 8” tube or 36” tube to accommodate different harness or vest pod arrangements. Each tube has anti-microbial bite valve. The tube can easily run under your mask for a cold shot of water during the most heated of battles. An attachment clip allows you to keep the drink tube positioned exactly where you need it.

Tippmann X7 Phenom Mechanical

Tippmann has released the latest marker in their X7 lineup. The New Tippmann X7 Phenom Mechanical paintball gun offers the same valve technology as the original model just with a non-electronic trigger. The X7 Phenom owes a large part of its popularity to the Flex-Valve designed by Tippmann Sports. The Flex-Valve is highly efficient, operates at a low 300psi and has less recoil than standard blow-back markers. It is also tough enough to run on both CO2 or compressed air (nitrogen).

X7 Phenom Mechanical

The Mechanical X7 Phenom is offered at $299.00. This is $100 cheaper than the electronic version. A great platform for anyone looking for a Phenom but does not want to pay the $399.00 upfront. Those that buy the X7 Phenom Mechanical can always upgrade to the electronic model later on, giving them the same fire power as the original Phenom. Pre-orders have begun on the website. The wait should be short - estimated delivery time is 1-2 weeks.

This new addition comes with other important releases from Tippmann for the Phenom. Now Phenom owners can change the look and feel of their marker by adding any one of the new Phenom Mag Kits. The new
Phenom M16 Straight Mag, M16 Curved Mag and the AK-47 Mag kits include a built-in trigger guard that helps to stabilize the magazine and complete the overall look. X7 Phenom mag kits retail for $19.95. All should be in stock and ready to ship within the next few days.

Tippmann X7 Accessories: Stocks, Mags and Handguards

After a few months of 'out of stock' status on factory Tippmann X7 accessories, we are happy to say fresh shipments from Tippmann have arrived and others are on the way. The delay was due to the changing of the structure of Special Ops Paintball. Originally, Special Ops teamed up with Tippmann to jointly create the Spec Ops/Tippmann mags, stocks, handguards and rails for the X7. Special Ops Paintball changed ownership and its focus on soft goods rather than gun parts and accessories for paintball guns.

After a lot of hard work, Tippmann is now producing the X7 accessories once again. This includes all the popular upgrades that give the X7 its many available looks. Popular items like the Tippmann X7 UMP Shroud are in and ready to ship. We are also happy to report that all of the X7 factory stocks will arrive any day, this includes the Tippmann X36 Folding Stock. The X36 X7 Stock is used as part of several X7 upgrade kits. It folds to the side of the marker, allowing you to use it for regular and long distance play or in close quarter battle.

Tippmann X7 X36 Stock

Visit our Tippmann X7 Mods category for all the latest upgrades and aftermarket parts and accessories. Need factory X7 replacement parts like screws, springs or body pins. We have all located in our Tippmann X7 factory parts section.

New Paintball Ghillie Suits!

If you understand the basics of camouflage, you're well aware that a ghillie suit offers the ultimate solution to blending into your surroundings. Ghillie suits are used extensively by all branches of the military as well as a common tool used by hunters in the woods. Within recent years, the ghille suit has made its way into both airsoft and paintball play.

Many people will create their own ghillie suit by taking BDU's or a flight suit and attaching burlap strips and synthetic fibers to it. The strips are dyed or painted to represent the colors of the foliage in which the suit will be used. Suits can be modified by adding actual branches, leaves and tall grass to make a ghillie suit as effective as possible. Most ghillie suits are perfect for paintball use. They allow you to lay on the ground, stand against a tree or in hide in brush without detection.

We have a entire line of pre-assembled ghillie suits. Suits vary in the type of material in which they are composed, the color pattern and whether they are one piece or multiple piece kits. Our latest Lightweight Paintball Ghillie Suit is composed of two pieces: a jacket and a pair of pants. Synthetic fibers are attached to a polyester mesh suit. Snap closures and elastic waist and wrists keep the suit tight to you. Offered in two sizes, the ghillie sniper suit will fit most adults and offers a color palette that will allow you to blend into most wooded areas.

Stop by ROCKSTAR Tactical and check out all the Ghillie Camo Suits, camo netting and camo form tape for everything you need to stay stealth during your next game.

New Designz Phenom Spitfire Bolt

How do you make a paintball gun that's already great, even better? You do everything you can to tweek every little bit of performance out of it, that's how. Just when you thought the Tippmann X7 Phenom couldn't get any better, New Designz has released a product that will take it to the next level of performance.

New Designz accomplished this by offering a new bolt for the Tippmann Phenom that is much lighter than stock. Lighter mass on a bolt means faster cycling and also less kick due to the reduced recoil. The Phenom Spitfire Bolt is 62% lighter than the stock bolt. New Designz reports that it provides a 10 fps increase in velocity and better airflow due to the venturi face all resulting in increased accuracy and shot-to-shot consistency. You may even notice a slight reduction in operating noise during firing.

New Designz Phenom Spitfire Bolt


The New Designz Spitfire Bolt retails for $39.99. They should be in any day now. We have begun pre-orders on the website. Be the first to get the SpitFire Bolt for your Tippmann Phenom! Reserve yours today.

We are very excited about a new product that will soon be available for purchase through ROCKSTAR Tactical. The Rufus Dawg SwitchPad for the Tippmann A5 and X7 HE Triggerframe is a revolutionary new product that will add comfort while solving a problem long experienced by Tippmann e-board owners.

Rufus Dawg Switchpad

The A5/X7 Switchpad installs at the front of the HE Selector Switch triggerfame. It's made from durable composite plastic with a molded control panel. The top button allows you to activate the triggerframe and program it without having to insert a small object or tool. The bottom window allows you to see the led light indicating your mode or setting. This is perfect for those that want a much easier means of programming your trigger especially while in the field. No more worries about damaging your internals by blindly sticking in an object from the front to switch settings.

Rufus Dawg updated the Switchpad with a new adhesive and we now have the latest release in stock. If you are a Tippmann HE Selector Switch owner, keep an eye out for this new product. It may be your most important upgrade yet! Look for the Rufus Dawg StichPad and all the Rufus Dawg paintball products from ROCKSTAR Tactical Systems.
