ACI F4 paintball gun

Just won an ACI F4 this on a local NZ auction site $50 about $35your dollars needs a little work ( they say it leaks from the hose) but it sound like it might be ok as a rental or 2nd backup incase both my A5 and 98 custom pro let me down on the same day. LOL.

Hard explaining to SWMBO why I need a 3rd Gun

Its a mechanical marker apparently on par with a 98 Custom has a built in expansion chamber and the stock barrels are apparently quite good.

Question

-What barrel thread has this got ?

Re: ACI F4 paintball gun

I want to say spyder, but dont hold me on that. It looks to be a spyder clone with a couple tweaks. Pull out the barrel and lets take a look at the threads.

Re: ACI F4 paintball gun

So ya got yourself an old Illustrator. ACI use to make these markers an Bulldog tanks an regs back in the day. It uses Tippmann Prolite barrel threads, not Spyder. I think prolites have the same threads as A-5's do. But I'm not sure?

Yes, Pro-lite barrels are "A5" threaded.

Re: ACI F4 paintball gun

Arent ACI threads same as trracer threads? Making some relations with the ACi mavericks. ACI mavericks has trracer threads and trracers have a couple of barrel options.
