🛠️ About the Marker:
Item Appearance:
Most parts are used, but the Tacamo Storm Conversion Body Kit is new. However, it has scuffs and scratches from part installation. One small screw is missing on the top right rail, but functionality is not affected. The mock suppressor was repainted previously and stripped back—some minor paint residue may remain. This marker has not been used in play since being built.
Functionality:
This marker has been tested using HPA, but will shoot at higher FPS when using CO2. It is built for round ball and has not been tested with First Strike Rounds.
Parts/Accessories:
The scope works and lights up red and green, though the button is firm and may require pressure to activate. The scope can be used without illumination. You may need a riser to use it with a paintball mask, and it includes top iron sights. Rear sight may need to be removed depending on setup.
All items listed above are included. Marker will be disassembled for shipping.
No additional accessories are included unless otherwise noted.
Parts costs reflect estimated market value if purchased new.
📏 Length & Weight:
Tactical setup with stock extended for realistic feel and balance.
Length: Approximately 33.5" to 37.5", depending on configuration
Weight: Approximately 6 lbs 10 oz (fully assembled as shown)
🔫 Air & Chronograph:
This marker is optimized for CO2 and performs best when powered by it.
While it can operate on HPA, it may shoot at lower FPS levels.
Chronograph adjustment is required after reassembly to meet your field’s limits.
Be sure to tune it properly after reassembly to ensure safe and legal operation.
🎯 Paint Preference:
This marker is built for round ball.
First Strike Rounds have not been tested, and the marker may require a different front bolt and a rifled barrel to operate properly with FSR.
Use medium to thick-shelled paint for best results—2 Star, 3 Star, or Valken Graffiti recommended.
⚠️ Air Storage Warning:
These markers are not designed to stay aired up for long periods of time.
While it's fine to play for several hours, leaving a tank connected at home for days (such as for less-lethal or home defense purposes) can damage internal o-rings over time and may result in slow leaks.
Several companies make air supply on/off adapters, which we recommend for setups like this.
