Does the Speed Pinch?

[warpedx]

Here's my big question, does the lower lpr pressure of the speed allow it to pinch paint?
Can somebody with a speed do a test? Ya know, hold the thing upside down, hold a ball halfway in the chamber, and fire a couple of times.

I am sure it will not pinch when it is stock. You would have to lower the pressure with volumizers

You will have to get the pressure quite a bit lower than the 150 they mentioned (using massivly huge volumizers.... err should i say 2nd barrels) to get it to pinch

[jtcimp00]

but the "pinching" part is controlled by the lpr isnt it? the 150 is output pressure from the mini reg I believe. If I am not right please correct me.

ill be willing to bet it will pinch. my ir3 along with several others including TAG's have pinched numerous paintballs flawlessly. i even dangled a ball in the feed tube using a peice of scotch tape attatched to the ball. i could pull the trigger up to about 7 times before it would break it. i used rps bigball. that was at an lpr pressure of like 90-95. the speeds runs at like 60-70 or so. im sure it will pinch paint for the most part depending on what paint you use.

My speed has chopped a couple of times. The worst part is that when it happens the bolt sometimes gets stuck forward and the air begins venting down the barrel. :angry:

There's no worse sound to hear during a game then venting air coming from your marker. The first time it happed while chronying I didn't know what happened.

according to a test on an A/C forum , most paintballs pinch every time at ~50psi, and britte ones like Evil pinch often only at under 40.

That may have been my problem. I was using Evil paint at the tournament.
