As my equipment lies dormant I start to wonder what I need to keep, what I can sell (ebay) and what I want to get for next year that I can purchase during the winter.

I started the year off with my Tippmann 98 Custom, which I customized more this year with items like a cyclone feed and stock. I also purchased two Diablo Reincarnations, of which one hasn’t worked correctly so I figure now is the time to send it in for repairs. The same marker woks best off of HPA, as it freezes during auto-fire when running CO2, so I guess I can add an HPA tank to the wishlist.

The Tippmanns are so easily modified that a lot of money can be poured into them to make them look and work however you want them to. At this point I am getting rid of my Flatline in favor of a different, more accurate barrel. The big question is do I spend a little extra for looks? I am also looking for an expansion chamber and response trigger for it (among other things).

So as the weather gets colder my wishlist is growing. I guess it doesn’t help to have more time on my hands to shop online for stuff. At the same time I can read reviews and get an idea of what works and what doesn’t.
