Tippmann announced in Feb. that all their paintball guns will now come with a new 2 year warranty. Their original warranty was only 1 year with a 24hr turn around promise. This 2 year service just re-solidifies Tippmann Paintball Guns as being the hardest working paintball guns in the industry. The Press Release is below. The industry stranded warranty is usually 90 days on any electronics of a gun (if any), and 1 year on the mechanical parts themselves. Of course, abuse is another story.

If you haven’t done so already, check out the new Tippmann 98 Custom Platinum series paintball gun.  It allows you  easily take apart the gun for maintenance, and it adds some cool looks over the old 98 custom. If you need more fire power and a realistic look, the X7 with eframe is the gun for you.  The select fire switch allows you to quickly change firing modes from full auto, semi, auto and 3 round burst.
