Tippmann X7 Phenom Builder

Tippmann Sports has released a new X7 builder made specifically for the Tippmann X7 Phenom. After the Phenom's release last month, many were asking about the this new gun's compatibility with the original X7's shrouds, stocks and mag kits. The X7 Phenom Builder will not only allow you to see what your gun will look like before upgrading but it will also give you an idea of what is actually compatible.

One of the limiting factors between the X7 Phenom and the original X7 configuration is the magazine. The Phenom accepts the smaller sized X7 mag kits like the XP5 Straight and Xp5 Curved (with the used of the 9mm magwell). It come standard from the factory with the UMP mag kit, one of the most popular mag styles used by players on the original X7. Some have also reported aftermarket X7 stocks not working with the Phenom, we are still gathering a list.

Purchasing a refurbished Tiberius T8 paintball pistol is a great way to get into a high-quality, mag-fed sidearm at a fraction of the normal price.

Deadlywind DTI4 w/ BOB Ion Body Kit

As personal owners of a number of tactical Ion body kits, we were really excited to get our hands on the latest milsim Ion body kit from Deadlywind. We were not disappointed! The Deadlywind DTI4 is every bit of what is claims to be on the manufacturer's website. Milled to perfection, the DTI4 is 13.5" of true tactical. Loaded with picatinny rails, this Deadlywind Ion body will accept just about any weaver based (picatinny) accessory such as a red dot sight, bipod, flashlight or laser. The DTI4 has a very convenient feature especially for original Ion owners. It includes a BOB (bolt out back) design which allow you to easily remove the bolt assembly from the rear of the marker without having to remove the trigger frame.

Deadly Wind Ion DT4I Body

The Deadlywind DTI4 includes a low rise t-lock style feedneck. This tactical Ion body will work with both the original Ion and the Ion XE models. The DTI4 also accepts a rear 98 style stock. Assembly is standard for any replacement Ion body. Anyone who is familiar with the teardown of a Smart Parts Ion should make short work of the DTI4 install. For those you unfamiliar, Deadlywind Paintball has detailed DTI4 installation instuctions for both the Ion and Ion XE available on their website.

We tried the kit on one of our in-house Ions and we were more than satisfied. The fit and finish on these units are top-notch. We went with a standard Liberty 98 T6 stock, bipod and a side laser. Some guns and body kits can be picky when it comes to 98 stocks because their are slight differences between stock models. We only tried the T6 collapsible and the it was a tight and secure fit. You can add an offset mount or use one of the integrated side 45 degree rails for a top mounted scope or red dot sight. This will get you around the center mounted feedneck for a clear view of your 12 o'clock. We also tried a number of loaders on the included Deadlywind feedneck. From standard 200rd to Halo B to the new Invert TOO. The feedneck worked and provided a very secure grip with easy removal.

If you're an Ion owner looking to take your marker into the woods, the Deadlywind DTI4 kit is exactly what you need. Precision aluminum milling, easy install and tons of rail space allow you to customize your Ion or Ion XE to the exact weapon you will need in the woods.

We received our normal woodsball colors: Black, OD and Reverse OD. VForce also released a new color style for the Profiler, the Dual Tan Desert Drab.

Vforce is planning on the color popularity of the Dual Tan to transfer over to the Profiler as well.

VForce Profiler Desert Drab

The Profiler is designed to remove the lens in seconds for cleaning. The optically correct spherical lens acheives a superior field of vision. Soft ply plastic at the cheeks allows for correct protection while maximizing comfort. You really can't go wrong with the Profiler at $59. And with the new Desert Drab Dual Tan color, the Profiler will soon become a fierce contender in the woods.

Paintball Ghillie Suits Have Arrived!

No, it's not the creature from the black lagoon or what might have eaten Jessica Simpson's dog... it's a ghillie suit! Ghillie suits offer the ultimate in camouflage protection, allowing you to stay concealed in open spaces and within close proximity to your opponent without being detected. Our Paintball Ghillie Suits are very lightweight. Each suit includes full body coverings as well as a piece to cover your marker. OPFOR will never know what hit them. We have them in various color patterns to blend into just about any playing environment out there. Paintball Ghillie Suits are now available in Woodland Camo, Urban Camo and Desert Camo. Snow camo ghillie suits are on the way and should be here in plenty of time before the snow starts falling.

Paintball Ghillie Suit

The idea behind any camouflage device, whether it be clothing or coverings of any kind, is to break up the lines that allow our eyes and brain to detect shapes and silhouettes. No single piece of camouflage works better than the ghillie suit. Ask anyone who's used one in the field, it 'almost' offers an unfair advantage. Our suits run almost half of what most suits on the market cost! They are available in two sizes: medium/large and xlarge/xxlarge.

Visit the site and look for other great camo products from ROCKSTAR Tactical. Our
Camo Form Camouflage Tape has been a big hit since its debut on the website a few weeks back. In order to win in the woods, you have to find every advantage possible. Having the right tools to conceal your position is as important as the paintball gun you carry!

Trinity Paintball is always on the cutting edge of the scenario paintball scene offering parts and upgrades for some of most popular guns in the sport. The new Trinity Hellfire Stocks have really gotten the attention of woodsball fans who have been looking for the perfect stock to complete their MP5 style paintball gun build.

Trinity Hellfire Paintball Stock

The Trinity Paintball Hellfire Stock is available for all Tippmanns, US Army and BT-4 paintball guns. This stock closely resembles the feel and function of the wildly popular BT Delta and Delta Elite MP5 style marker. One of the best features on those markers is the MP5 sliding stock. The Trinity stock differs from most MP5 collapsible paintball stocks on the market. It uses a small, spring-loaded lever under the adapter plate to unlock the stock for length adjusting. The action is smooth with five adjustment points to cater to different playing conditions. The Hellfire Stock is made from aircraft aluminum and anodized black yielding a durable yet beautiful appearance. This all comes at a price listed well below other MP5 paintball stocks on the market.

Tippmann X7 Phenom - Info Released

This is an exciting day! Tippmann has released some information on the newest marker in their lineup: Tippmann X7 Phenom. The X7 Phenom is the first electro-pneumatic gun for Tippmann Sports. This blog post will be updated later today as more information becomes available. Pre-orders are available for the X7 Phenom at ROCKSTAR Tactical!

Psiworx Pro-Connect III Remote Line

The Psiworx Pro-Connect Remote Line Fitting has been around for years. It's been a stable part of many a remote line owned by players who are 'in the know'. Adding a fitting to your remote line that costs almost as much as the line itself? I know it may sound crazy, but if you've experienced the benefits like the thousands who've used the Pro-Connect in the past, you'd never run a remote line again without it.

Pro-Connect III Remote Fitting


The Pro-Connect III Paintball Fitting replaces the quick-disconnect and slide check fittings. Easily bleed your air system safely without rupturing orings or internal remote line parts. Ever experience shoot-down when using high rates of fire? That has to do with airflow restriction caused by the system and it's fittings. The Pro-Connect III features a larger internal orifice which helps to virtually eliminate the dreaded shootdown. Testing shows the Pro-Connect III can easily keep up with a Tippmann A5 or Smart Parts Ion firing at 20 bps. Also, the ProConnect features tooless maintainence and/or parts replacement. That means there's no need to replace your leaking slide check or quick-disconnect fitting ever again!

Below is a youtube video illustrating the performance gain of using the Pro-Connect III as part of your remote line setup. It works in conjunction with just about any paintball remote line on the market today. Search for 'Pro-Connect II' on youtube to view other info videos.

Easier Way to Camo Your Paintball Gun!

If you search in any paintball forum anywhere on the web, we'll guarantee there is a post somewhere asking a question regarding camouflage. Most want to know how they can camo their paintball marker without too much hassle and/or damaging the finish on their gun. There is a solution out there that's been used for years by hunting and special forces worldwide. The CamoForm Camouflage Wrap has some serious advantages over simply painting your gun with camo paint.

McNett Camo Form Camouflage


I suppose you could call it a 'tape' but you'd be implying two things. First, normal 'tape' will almost always leave a messy residue on the finish of the marker. Also, the lifecycle of tape is usually one application. That is not the case with CamoForm Camo Wrap. The Camo Form adheres to the application surface while leaving no residue once removed. Removal does not involve disposal as all. Camo Wrap can be removed, cleaned or dried and reapplied! Now that's what we call 'green', ACU green that is.

Camo Form Wrap is easy to apply. Below is an instructional video with some installation tips to help you get the most out of every roll. Camo your paintball gun, tank, stock, scope and field gear. You wear camo and so should your gear! Don't let your equipment give away your position again.



Camo Form Camouflage Wrap is available through ROCKSTAR Tactical in various colors such as MossyOak, Woodland and ACU.

Tippmann SL-68 II New Release of an Old Favorite

Tippmann has re-released an earlier woodsball favorite that is sure to be a hit once again. The Tippmann SL-68 is a semi-auto, pump action marker that requires no traditional cocking. Just add a hopper full of paint, air tank then pump the front grip and fire away.

The new SL-68 II features an anti-double pump control. The 11" barrel adds to the accuracy and increased distance. The ribbed front grip and trigger frame aid in comfort and control. The body is made from solid cast aluminum and the internals are corrosion resistent. Built-in front and rear rings make adding a sling a breeze. The top features a sight rail for adding scopes and the integrated feedneck works with nearly all standard hoppers. The grip also features a built-in tank adapter for adding constant air for non-pump action. The SL-68 also has auto-receiving for faster firing. This allows the user to hold the trigger and pump for continuous firing. A gravity-fed 200rd hopper is included.

Tippmann SL68 II


We've added a ton of new products to the website lately. Stop by our New Arrivals category to see the latest woodsball products to hit the store.

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.

Killjoy Adjustable Picatinny Rail

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. Checkout the APR and other innovative paintball products from Killjoy Industries available through ROCKSTAR Tactical.

Shooter Series Paintball Gloves

Regardless of weather conditions, having a good pair of paintball gloves is a must. Paintball gloves keep your hands warm and quick in the cold days of winter. They also provide a pair of sweaty, dirty hands a better grip during the dog days of summer.

There are two factors to consider when looking for the right glove. You need a breathable glove that will provide some warmth, yet allow your hands to vent in hot conditions. Also, you need paintball gloves that are made of thinner material with minimal finger restriction for optimal shooting.

The new
Shooter Series Paintball Gloves have the best of both worlds. The palm is reinforced with Amara synthetic leather that extends over the finger tips. The back of the hand is made from a nylon spandex material that allows your hand to vent in warmer playing conditions. The glove is secured to the wrist via a velco loop to ensure a solid fit. Suitable for all weather conditions, these gloves dry fast in rain or snow.

Paintball Gloves - ACU

The Shooter Series Paintball Gloves are currently available in black, coyote, acu and olive drab. Sizes include Medium, Large and XL. 2XL gloves are on the way and should be in stock by the end on the month.

Energy Paintball Batteries

Energy Paintball Batteries are designed to offer the juice demanded by your paintball gun or loading system. With various batteries available including the Alkaline 9v, AA and NIMH rechargeables, Energy Paintball has you covered.

Paintball Laser Tag

We have an innovative product that just hit our website early this week. Tippmann, in cooperation with Pedator Games, has launched a paintball ready laser tag system. The new Tippmann Eagle Eye Paintball Laser System and Barracuda Laser System both combine infrared and radio frequency technology to produce a laser based system compatible with Tippmann paintball guns.

Each system includes a receiver and a laser barrel that will attach to any Tippmann 98 style marker. The sound from the market shot activates the laser. The receiver senses and records hits at nearly any angle. The
Laser Command Center Module is the central unit for controlling game setup, start-up and management. The CCM tracks hits, shots and kills. It also controls all player buttons, giving the CCM operator complete control over the game.

Tippmann Paintball Laser Tag

You can also keep track of your statistics, run tournaments and even upload your results to www.pedatorgames.com. This allows players from all over the world to view other players' results and game stats. The new Tippmann Barracuda Laser System is all electronic and does not require the use of CO2.

Although acquiring the Tippmann Paintball Laser System requires some investment, Tippmann's goal is to offer players an alternative that will help save money over the long-term. Great for practice or actual field play, the paintball laser tag equipment offers endless possibilities.

BT Paintball TM-15 Stock

New to the store are the BT Paintball TM-15 stocks. These stocks are the exact same units found on the very popular TM15 paintball gun. The only exception is that they incorporate a specific end adapter to work with either the Tippmann A5 or Custom 98 (Platinum, Alpha Black, BT-4 etc.) paintball guns. The stock on the BT TM15 is one of the unique features that is responsible for some of the popularity behind BT's new gun. It is composed of lightweight composite plastic that is extremely durable. The same material found on some of the most advanced weapons used by the military.

BT TM15 Paintball Stock

The TM15 Paintball Stock has 6 adjustment settings to help adapt the length of the gun to different shooting situations included long range sniper shots as well as close quarter battle. Adjustment is achieved by squeezing the rocker lever. The level is spring loaded and functions much more smoothly than other adjustable stocks on the market today. Install is no different than any other stock and only requires a few minutes of time. No tools are required and BT includes an instructional sheet with complete install details.

Don't forget that the stock can be used on other guns such as the Smart Parts SP1 that use an adapter plate with certain 98 stocks. This stock will work with the
Smart Parts SP1 Stock Adapter Plate. The stock also works with other paintball guns that use the 98 stock but who's compatibility is selective depending on manufacturer. This is due to the groove pattern on the 98 stock adapter piece. The pattern required to fit most of these guns is a 3 stepped ridge pattern. Without the deeper groove cut into the pattern, we've found that some guns that use the 98 stock will not accept those specific stocks. The BT TM15 - 98 Stock has this pattern so no problem here.

Lapco BigShot Assault Barrels

Lapco has made some significant additionals to their product offering and a number of those products have hit our website. The new Lapco BigShot Assault Barrels were made with the woodsballer in mind. The Assault Paintball Barrels use the legendard BigShot barrel as their foundation combined with the flexibility of a front thread. The front thread will accept any of new Lapco Barrel muzzles including the Apex Adapter, M4, Dishka Thunder, Phantom and the Lapco Fake Suppressor tips. The Assault features an inner bore of 0.690 with an outer finish that's bead blasted for the ultimate tactical look. Also, all the new front tips utilize the same thread pattern (7/8-20) as that on the Lapco STR8Shot Barrels as well as Tiberius' own barrel line.

Lapco is also the first to release a barrel made specifically for the Tiberius First Strike Sniper Rounds. The Lapco STR8Shot First Strike T9 barrel comes in both 9" and 16" versions. It also features a front M4 Birdcage muzzle that can be removed and replaced with any of the Lapco front tips including the Lapco Apex Adapter. Simply screw on and screw off, no set screws to mess with and no barrel scratches.

BT TM-7 TM7 Olive - Limited Edition Release

BT Paintball has released a limited number of Olive colored TM7 Paintball Guns. We were one of the few retailers that were able to secure some of the Limited Edition Markers. For those of you not familar with the TM-7, it is commonly known as the 'Mini in a tactical shell'. The BT TM7 utilizes the same internals as the Invert Mini paintball gun. Ultra low pressure, quick and smooth operation are just some of the features that allowed the Mini to rise to the top of the list of the most desired paintball guns available today. Many would agree that the most unique feature of the Mini involves the lack of external airlines. All air is channeled inside the marker giving the outside a clean, realistic look and feel.

The TM-7 marker follows along the same principles that have made the Mini what it is today. The most notable difference is the outer shell. It was created with woodball in mind. A balanced feel with a stable rear collapsible butt stock allows shooters the stability to make clean, accurate shots. The rails included on the TM7 body provide for ample attachments points for any number of different combination of tactical accessories. From scopes to flashlights, lasers to grips... you can easily customize your marker to your exact needs.

The Olive TM7 is currently in stock. It is a limited edition marker so availability is for a limited time only. We only have a certain number available too so don't delay.

Smart Parts All-American 1 Piece Barrel

There is some exciting news coming out of Latrobe, PA from the Smart Parts Factory. Smart Parts has decided to stop production of their 2 piece All-American barrels. To clarify, the All-American Barrel Backs will no longer be available. They will still be producing the All-American Fronts that can be mated to the Freak Barrel Backs. Smart Parts is replacing the AA Backs with a 1 Piece All American Barrel.

Smart Parts 1 Pc All-American Barrel

The new All-American 1 Piece Barrel follows true Smart Parts design and quality. Known for their precise porting, the new AA barrel features dual spiral porting. The porting allows the paintball to exit the barrel without an erratic flight pattern due to the build-up of pressure before and behind the exiting ball. The inner bore is silky smooth and dead-on straight. The other barrel finish is bead blasted to a very low sheen black. This barrel offers superior performance at a very affordable price. Perfect for adding a handguard or whatever your heart desires to build the perfect tactical front end on your sniper paintball gun.

The All American 1 Pc Barrel is available through ROCKSTAR Tactical in a number of different threads: A5 (X7), 98, Ion (Impulse), Autococker and Spyder. Each thread is also available in both 14" and 16" lengths. Bon a petit...

Killjoy Industries ROC Stock

The new Killjoy Industries ROC Stock release was highly anticipated from many die-hard woodsball and scenario paintball players. Posts developed on sites like a5og.net and x7og.net, giving players just a taste of what the new ROC Stock was going to look like and the many features it would offer.

The machined thumb screw unlocks or locks the stock securely in place. The buttpad is very comfortable and features a non-slip, ribbed surface that will grab the front of your shoulder. Both the height of the adapter plate that attaches the stock to the gun as well as the height of the buttpad are adjustable.

It's been a little while since Kingman released a new goggle system after discontinuing their Java Paintball line a while back.

TechT Paintball Zero Kick ACT Hammer

TechT Paintball has produced some super performance parts for Tippmann owners all over the world. They took the cyclone feed system and made it not only faster but more reliable even at a much lower operating pressure. Their latest product, which is a twist on the wildly popular Zero Kick Hammer, is specially designed for ACT Tippmann owners.

TechT ACT Zero Kick Hammer

ACT stands for Anti-Chop Technology developed by Tippmann Sports and used in their Tippmann 98 Custom / Pro markers. The ACT helps to virtually eliminate paintball chops from misfeeds in the gun's receiver. The TechT Zero Kick ACT Hammer replaces the much heavier stock hammer. It's almost 60% lighter than stock. Less weight from the rear bolt means less mass moving back and forth, equating to less kick shot to shot. To top it off, it's made specifically to work with the Tippmann ACT system found in the Tippmann 98 Custom, Pro and the Platinum series markers.

Tiberius T4 First Strike guns have arrived and all we can say is WOW... they are truly sick. We can't wait to try one out. We'll post some info on performance once it becomes available.

NEW Tiberius Arms T4 T-4 First Strike Rifle

Tiberius Arms has released exciting info regarding the production of the new Tiberius Arms T4 First Strike Rifle. Recent sightings at D-Day confirmed that Tiberius Arms was producing a 'First Strike Ready' paintball gun. The demand for the highly anticipated 'First Strike Sniper' Rounds has been extreme, resulting in many woodsballers requesting a First Strike factory gun.

Tiberius Arms T4 Paintball Gun

The Tiberius Arms T4 Paintball Gun is straight tactical. It borrows it's body from Tiberius' less lethal line: the product line used by Police and Military forces around the world. The T4 has been modified to accept the new First Strike Sniper Rounds. The Tiberius T-4 comes equipped with 2 - 14rd mags, a 4x32 sniper scope, riser, bi-pod, remote line adapter and tactical stock. Both the T4 and the First Strike Upgrade kits for the T8 and T9 can also shoot standard .68 caliber paintballs. The T4 also comes with guards to protect the unused rail space spanning this gun. Rail space is plenty, accepting any combination of weaver/picatinny based tactical mods.

ROCKSTAR Tactical will be among the first to receive an initial order of Tiberius T4 Sniper Rifles. Pre-orders are available today at $899.95. We are hoping to start shipping late next week. Do not delay, quantities are limited.

US Army Alpha Black Cyclone Feed Power Combo

One of the most popular upgrades that people first choose for their Alpha Black Paintball Gun is adding a Tippmann Cyclone Feed System. The Cyclone Feed is made to fit the US Army Alpha and all the recent versions of the 98 style marker (includes ACT, PRO and Platinum models). Tippmann's add-on cyclone feed system is identical to the model used on other Tippmann guns. The cyclone feed system is completely air driven, cycling the inner star chamber by using the exhaust air from the previously fired shot. It's a very smart system and breakdowns are rare but they can occur especially when high sustained rates of fire are achieved.

That's where the TechT Paintball upgrades come into play. TechT makes 4 cyclone feed upgrades that are a must have for any cyclone feed owner. The Vortex Mod replaces the stock ratchet at the base of the cyclone. That stock ratchet is responsible for advancing the loader and can crack over time. The Vortex is light, made of aluminum and designed to function much smoother requiring less air pressure to cycle the cyclone feeder. By far the most popular part added to cyclone feed systems around the world.

The Lightening Rod replaces the plastic composite rod in the kit. It is made of lightweight aluminum and helps bullet proof the cyclone in it's chain of advancing balls into the receiver. TechT's QEPH (Quick Exhaust Piston Housing) helps vent the cyclone feed air faster. This is the equivalent to putting headers on your hotrod. Venting the air faster allows the cyclone to cycle faster and more efficiently. The secret is the QEPH vents at both ends of the piston stroke. The TechT Squishy Paddles are so popular that nearly every paintball parts dealer across the US and abroad jumped on the idea. The concept is simple. Softer contact on the paintball means less breaks to clean up. The results were amazing. Most users reported no breaks even when using old or brittle paint.

Cyclone Feed Power Combo Upgrade

Our new Cyclone Feed Power Combo is a must have for any Alpha Black or 98 (Pro) owner looking for the ultimate in loading technology. You get the Tippmann Cyclone Feed System and the 4 TechT Paintball Upgrade kit at a reduced price over individual pricing. At $159.00, you'll not only be able to check your loading system off your upgrade list but also super-charged it for peak performance in your upcoming events.

New BT Paintball TM-15 TM15 Paintball Gun

A lot of buzz has been created about the newest upcoming woodsball release of the BT TM-15 Paintball Gun. The gun was shown at various events including the recent D-Day 2009 (June 8-14th) causing pics and posts to pop-up in chat rooms and forums anxiously awaiting the arrival of the BT TM-15.

BT Paintball TM-15 Paintball Gun

The BT TM-15 differs from its TM-7 counterpart in a number of ways. The TM15 is lightweight but very durable sporting a receiver made of magnesium. There has been a push towards magnesium receivers since the release of the Tippmann X-7 . The material is more heavy duty and offers a more realistic feel than composite plastic receivers and shrouds but still offers a lighter weight compared to other steel and aluminum guns. The most notable difference on the new TM15 is the integrated HK416-style barrel shroud. Lined with tactical rails, it'll allow you to accessorize to the max with add-ons such as front grips, bipods, lasers and flashlights kits. BT even reports that the shroud also aids in quieting shots. The BT TM-15 also allows for easier maintenance with its 'bolt-out-back' design and and easy access battery compartment. The stock offers a slight twist in its design and collapses via a central lever and features multiple access points for sling attachment.

In true 'Mini' design, all air hoses are internal creating a clean, external airline-free look. The firing is controlled via the electropneumatic trigger that's been prefected by both the Invert Mini and the BT TM-7. External firing switch allows for fast on-the-fly firing mode changes to correspond with different engagements during the heat of battle. As always, the ultra-low operating pressure is set at about 200 psi keeping firing smooth and consistent with as little kick as possible. Flip-up sites and a 14" tactical barrel top-off the BT TM-15.

BT Paintball TM-15 will become available. No estimated street price has been released as of yet. We are currently on backorder for a limited number of first releases. Once a release date is set by BT, http://www.rockstartactical.com/ pre-orders with begin.
