Amazon.com Product Description
There are ordinary paintball markers, and then there are paintball markers that act as extensions of your personality. The Tippmann 98 Custom Basic fits squarely in the latter category. The fully customizable semiautomatic marker is compatible with Tippmann's accessory arsenal, including the Flatline barrel system, the sniper barrels, the double trigger kit, the Response trigger system, the collapsible stock, and the rear-cocking system, among many others. Want to create a paintball marker that represents your style, your game, and your creativity? Look no further. Plus, it's easy to install a new accessory, as all you need is the same tools you use to take the marker apart.

The Tippmann 98 Custom is made of die-cast aluminum with an extra-sturdy silver finish. More significantly, the marker boasts Tippmann's Anti-Chop Technology (A.C.T.), a system consisting of a rear bolt, front bolt, and linkage arm with movements dictated by the location of a paintball in the chamber prior to firing.

If a paintball is fed correctly, the system's front bolt and rear bolt travel together--connected by the linkage arm--to fire the ball. However, if a ball is lodged inside the chamber incorrectly, the system moves the bolts independently until the lodged ball falls into position. Once the ball is back in place, the marker cycles itself to discharge the ball at normal velocity. Not only does the A.C.T. system prevent stalls and "blowback" (a sudden release of trapped air into the hopper), but it also maintains shot velocity, as the cycle speed never changes. It's a must for the serious paintball enthusiast.

Additional features include a quick-release feeder elbow, a removable front grip (for adding an expansion chamber and vertical kits), and a 200-round hopper. The Tippmann 98 Custom Basic is fully compatible with CO2, compressed air, or nitrogen and comes with a marker maintenance pack with a barrel sleeve, oil, wrenches, cleaning cable, and spare tank O-ring.
