This is one the best scenarios markers around.... You will be pleased with the quality of it (material used, realistic feel).
It's quite heavy and will give a true felling of the the real gun... Therefore, I would advise to get a Sling in order to attach to the vest, otherwise you will definatelly get tired of carring after a few rounds of scenario game...
The Alpha Black is mainly a Tippmann 98 already customized right our of the box.
All the internals are the same as well... If you need to replace anything, it will be quite easy to find the parts for it.
As an advice, one of the best things you can add to this marker is a cyclone... In order to this.. you have to get the 98 Custom Cyclone.. File down the border (since it's the only difference from the 98 to the Alpha Black), which does not allow the connector of the cyclone to match the AB right out of the box...
With the cyclone the weapon really comes alive... (And I am not talking about the E-Grip yet)
This is also an additional resource, since you can then use the Tactical Loader, which comes in capacity of 50 or 20 rounds and will fit the cyclone adaptor.
There are plenty of websites that teaches you how to do this.. Just look over at Google and you will find... You don't even need to replace the internals since they are Cyclone ready..
For the money, this is definatelly the one of the best markers for paintball scenario/woodsball around here...
The effectives of the shot is also pretty good. It has a good range for the 11" barrel as well...
and another hint... Take a Remote line to get the tank out of the marker, this will make the feel of the marker even more realistic... The weight of the gun itself is enough for this and will give you a better balance.
As one little flaw..
I would advise to take real good care of the E-Grip, since when we play scenario around here, on real wet places, sometimes you can get the gun really wet, and due to poor seal of the section where the circuit goes, you can get it fried in no time... Just an extra care you need to be aware.
I am very satisfied with the quality, versatility and price for this marker... You will fall in love with it..
As I said, one of the best bank for the buck around, with great quality.

Just about everything with the Alpha Black is great. It's a solid marker and holds up through what you put it through. There are a couple of things that could be done better.
1.) The allen wrench that came with it to take out the bolts that hold the gun casing together is just a little small. It seemed it was slipping a little so I tried the one that came with my Custom 98 and it was a tight fit. May seem like a little thing but if you strip those out it would not be good.
2.) It does not come with A.C.T., Anti-Chop Technology. Mine has been chopping balls left and right. Very annoying for what I paid for it. I put in the bolt from my Custom 98, which is A.C.T., and it seems to have helped. You would think A.C.T. would be standard.

This is great just for the fear factor,of walking on to the play field with a 4 foot long rifle(with a couple of upgrades)and watching other peoples expressions change from fun times to "oh crap,what have I gotten myself into"!Can get alittle heavy at times though with the tank screwed in an oversized hopper and a 18 inch barrel.Weight "feels like" 25 pounds,must have pretty good arm strength to use for extended time!Very solid gun construction,dropped mine once or twice with no damage.You can add a huge amount of accessories to it!In the process of turning mine into a long range sniper rifle.The extendable plastic stock hurts the overall gun though,it`d been nicer it it was a harder more precise material.

the real deal
This is as close to the real thing as you can get. I love it. The E-trigger is the only way to go,(I wish it was easier to switch between firing modes though). Read more
