guys, one of the workers of the pro shop said they walked in, asked for 8 g6r's polish black and about 50 cases of paint. they said it was for a show and this was right when the g6r's were coming out and they were special ordered from bob long. there is no big mystery and we do know that adam, jamie, and tori like to play paintball. it was actually posted on techpb somewhere

Im pretty sure the SP1 featured in the accuracy episode is Adam's personal gun. That same episode, you can see multiple guns laid out on a table, and i think i remember seeing a splatmaster. Not sure though

People, It's mythbusters. Bob probably sent over some markers for them to use,

Is it the dueling myth?
I'm watching it right now and they are using a .43 p99 RAM not a TPX

[andrewthewookie]

The most recent episode was about blast waves and the shape of WWI trenches. However, they decided to waste some time by shooting at each other with TPXs from adjacent trenches.

I've watched a few episodes now where they use paintball markers ( they have been doing a lot of myth recently which use paintballs as a simulation for guns). And I have noticed something...

They wear actual body armor to make it sting less, but they don't even wear paintball masks...

And they dont call them " paintball markers" or even just " paintball guns" , they say "high powered paintball guns" , as if there are different types and the ones they use are the special , awesome types which hit you harder and are dangerous lol

And they kind of contradict themselves , Adam says that a paintball can't to be used as a simulation for a bullet but Tory , Grant and Kerry shoot paintball markers to see if someone can run away from people who are shooting at them with real guns...

They've used the G6Rs in at least two episodes that I remember. The first one they were used as remote controlled gun turrets on a "spy car" episode, and the second time they used them to shoot a paintball in time with when a sniper's bullet would hit the target to see if you could dodge a bullet if you saw the muzzle flash from the rifle.

Why spend the money on one?Did they think it would be more accurate?

My guess is they wanted something consistent and efficient that wont go down on them.
