FAQ's
· What are the differences between Alien and other High End markers?
Alien’s higher flowing connectors and industry best SMC solenoids
allow for lower LPR pressure for a calmer shot. Alien’s SofTouch bolt
face is easy on the most brittle paint, even in the cold weather. Our Independent
Ram makes them easier to service and tech by allowing the Ram to be air
up when separated from the gun body. This certainty in inspection and repair
is not possible with any other marker.
· Some say that all guns have the same accuracy. Why do Alien
videos show the Sweep makes it more accurate?
Spool guns have gained acceptance a better trajectory fromn a “behind
the ball” airflow. Best however is the Sweep System that directs calmer
air under and around the ball. In baseball terms, your Alien throws fastballs
while the others throw knuckleballs. The sweep shot has a gyroscopic backspin
for a flatter, narrower and longer shot. The videos show the Sweep System
improves your game by allowing you to hit what you are shooting at more
often.
· Electro-pneumatic, FASOR or electric sear trippers? Poppet
valve or spool valve?
Aliens are fully electro-pneumatic (no spring returns) and use our high
flow, low resistance, poppet valve.
· How fast do Alien guns shoot?
Pro Players cannot outshoot an Alien. They come set at 20BPS max in semi
auto. BPS can be set as high as 30.
· What barrel threads?
Cocker type
· What are the firing modes?
Aliens the full range of tournament presents. The guns modes and futures
can also be individually set for your individual preferences. .
· How air efficient is it?
Alien have extra large storage for both efficiency and consistency. 1,700
to 2,000 shots as a reasonable range to expect, factors to be considered
are: how fast you are shooting, the field limit (265 to 300 fps) and a full
fill or a fast, hot fill.
· How much maintance do they need and how easy they to service?
An Alien can be shot for a whole season cleaning only the bolt and the outside
of the gun. Should it need servicing we feel they are the easiest to both
trouble shoot and repair. See the ‘Tech video.’
· How do I buy an Alien marker?
On this website or from your favorite paintball store. If you local store
doesn’t stock Aliens they can call us directly. But if the store starts
hating on Aliens (to get you to buy something they have sitting on the shelve)
call us or order here online. ;-)
