NEW GEAR!!!

Real Action Paintball is proud to introduce the next evolution of the award-winning T68 family of hyper-realistic paintball markers: the T68 Gen7. Boasting hot new features that are ready to rock your game, this all-metal marker brings the look, feel, and ergonomics of the M4 family of carbines to your team. The T68 Gen7 incorporates a fully functional magazine-feed system in addition to accepting normal hoppers. The SplitFire dual-feed system allows you to use either a hopper or magazines independently, or together as you switch between them by rotating a simple collar. This allows you the flexibility of two different feed options, and the performance enhancement of carrying two different types of paint simultaneously for special missions and applications. The array of T68 accessories allows for a world of configurations, including RIS, CQB, Special Ops, variations with an onboard hidden air source or a remote line, red dot sights, scopes, flashlights, grenade launchers...By changing the peripherals attached to your T68 Gen7 receiver, you can completely change the look and performance of your marker to reflect different roles and meet evolving challenges.

The T68 M4 is built around the internal Flexi-Air System that enables you to use either CO2 or compressed air from a tank within the stock, a remote line, or a full size air tank used as a stock. The T68 M4 is ideal for individuals who believe in tactical precision--where every shot counts, every ball eliminates an opponent, and the game is as real as you can get.  The T68 M4 has a removable carry handle with standard sights that are adjustable for elevation and windage. With the carry handle removed, the T68 M4 can take any standard scope, sight, or mount on the flattop rail. They have endless configurations, and are fully compatible with standard military specification attachments. The T68 M4 has an authentic charging handle just like a real assault rifle. The new Gen7 has numerous internal and external upgrades, including a newly redesigned bolt and hammer, and many other parts that improve the T68 Series' overall power, range and accuracy. They shoot standard .68 caliber paintballs, and can deliver tactical accuracy at great range. The T68 Gen7 features all-metal construction, while the bolt is made out of Delrin to prevent metal-to-metal wear and tear. Along with all these upgrades and improvements, the T68 Gen7 comes with a 5 year warranty from defects in manufacturing or material--one of the longest product warranties you'll find in the industry. Key Features Include: - .68 Caliber System - Semi-Automatic (optional upgrade for semi/burst/auto) - 20 Round Detachable Magazine - Optional 200 Round Hopper Adaptor - Internal Flexi-Air System - All Metal Construction - M4 Style Charging Handle - Removable Carry Handle - M4 Style Front Sight - M4 Style Hand Guard - 14" Tactical Barrel - Works with CO2/Compressed Air/ HPA/Nitrogen from all tank sizes - Maximum Range: 300 feet - Effective Range: 150 feet - Velocity 200-325 fps (adjustable): Recreational Version - Velocity 350-450 fps (adjustable): Military and Law Enforcement Version - 5 Year Warranty - Weight 6.5lbs The T68 Series markers are designed for combat training, and are tough enough for years of service. They are designed to take punishment and provide ease of maintenance. Each and every part of the T68 can be removed and replaced, so you can keep your Gen7 fleet in constant use for training or as field markers. The versatility, wealth of accessories and easy-to-build configurations, and design simplicity make the T68 one of the best paintball markers available. Military and law enforcement groups are already using T68 M4 markers for tactical training. They are perfect for room clearing and building entry training, and teaching CQB marksmanship and firearm safety. The T68 Gen7 markers are fabricated with weight, width and length comparable to authentic M16 / M4 style assault rifles, and the pistol grip is identical to that on an M4. This gives personnel a true-to-life feel, as if they are training with their duty gear.
