Valken V-Max Loader Hits the Market!

Valken has really changed the game upon coming on the scene a few years back.  Their paintball apparel, vests and general accessories are a great value and wildly popular among many sectors of the paintball market.  Valken nows enters the paintball hopper market with its long awaited release of the V-Max electronic loader.

The V-Max is a 200+ capacity loader that is capable of shuttling balls into the receiver at a pace of about 30 balls per second.  Valken created the V-Max to be high-end in performance but simple in design.  It relies heavily on the idea that fewer parts normally means fewer problems.  Simple, tool-less disassembly is a key feature of the V-Max loader.  You can take it apart and rebuild it in seconds without the use of a single tool.  This is perfect for cleaning at the field and between games.  An on-off push button and an LED display control the power and allow you to know the status of the loader at all times.  The sleek, flip-up lid is clear which allows you to easily monitor paint levels inside the loader.


Valken V-Max - Marpat

The Valken V-Max is now available and shipping.  You can find it at
www.rockstartactical.com in 6 of Valken's popular color patterns: Black, Tiger Stripe, V-Cam, ACU, Marpat and Woodland.

Deadlywind Apex 2 Paintball Barrel Accessories

Deadlywind has been making high-end carbon fiber paintball barrels for years.  The lightweight Null and Fibur barrels are among the best in the business, gracing the markers of tournament, pro and woodsballers all around the world.  Deadlywind has released a line of accessories that will help any Null or Fibur barrel join the overwhelming numbers of players that rely on the BT Apex Barrel for hitting shots otherwise impossible.

The BT Apex 2 was released a few months ago. This is the second generation of the Apex Tip.  The Apex has an internal core that is adjusted by an outside slider mechanism.  When you adjust the slider, you can increase or decrease the center position of the internal rubber core.  This allows you to adjust the amount of influence the core has on a paintball as it is shot down the tip of the barrel.  This results in increased (or decreased) spin responsible for curving shots downfield at players hiding behind bunkers or trees.   Fully adjustable (even able to shoot straight, accurate shots), the BT Apex has been the go-to accessory for those looking for a serious edge on the field.


Deadlywind Fusion

Deadlywind released the
Fusion Apex 2 Adapter.  This adapter is similar to the milling found on the end of many 'Apex Ready' barrels.  The adapter works with the Fiber barrel or barrels of similar outer diameter.  Deadlywind also makes an insert for use with their Null barrel (or barrels similar to the Null's size).  Just slide the Deadlywind adapter down onto your Fiber Barrel and secure with the included locking collar.  You can then add the Apex 2 tip.  This allows you to enjoy the high-end accuracy and performance of a Deadlywind Carbon Fiber barrel while still taking advantage of the capabilities of the Apex 2 barrel.

Of course a little style goes a long way and Deadlywind has Apex 2 owners covered, literally!  The new
Deadlywind Reskin Apex Cover is a direct replacement of the heavier factory shroud.  Just remove the original Apex 2 shell and slide on the ReSkin Cover.  Lightweight and stylish, the Reskin is the perfect touch for blending the Apex 2 tip into the rest of your carbon fiber barrel set-up.
