Tippmann 98 is a paintball marker, that most people usually just call M 98. M98 is probably the most dependable and rugged paintball gun available on the market today. This is because it has a simple design combined with extra-tough finishes. It's strong, durable and affordable. The Tippman 98's trigger is the lightest trigger pull Tippman has put out it.

This model is so well constructed that it's practically unbreakable. It comes with a a hopper, wire squeegee, barrel plug, gun oil, 4 allen wrenches, and an owners manual. It's also covered by Tippmann's one year warranty which they apply to all markers. Some of the distinctive features of Tippmann 98 include a removable elbow, front foregrip and a bottomline setup.

The M 98 can be customized to fit your individual needs and way of playing. The 98 custom is the best selling marker in the history of paintball. It's definitely the best choice for entry level players, because no other marker offers so many features at such low price (around $140). This model can be customized using Tippmann's E-bolt electronic system and the Response Trigger. The E-bolt system increases your firepower, offering several modes of fire, including full-auto. This is achieved with an electronic control board powered by a 9v battery. You will fire 3 shots with each trigger pull, however there will be times when the balls will crank up in full-auto mode.

Available for the 98 Custom paintball marker is the Tippmann Drop Forward connector for your CO2 or nitrogen tank. Its 90-degree elbow ergonomically repositions tank and is easy to install with the direct bolt-on kit. It fits Tippmann 98 Custom marker.

ACT stands for Anti Chop Technology, which is a patent pending design to help eliminate ball chopping and ensure consistent performance. Trigger speed up to 8 shots per second. Removable front grip to accept expansion chambers, vertical kits.

You can further customize the 98 custom paintball marker with the Ricochet AK Hopper, because the standard one can't quite keep with a high rate of fire. This hopper is very efficient and feeds around 12 a second, powered by a 9 volt battery, which you can expect to last for 5,000 to 6,000 rounds.

Another element of the M98 worth customizing is the barrel, because it stats loosing accuracy after 85-100 feet. The Tippmann Flatline is probably the best choice. It adds about 100 feet to your range while maintaining accuracy.
