unboxing Tippman TMC Elite Paintball Maker for self defense use

[@moosesnWoop]

True, best thing other than a firearm really. To be honest, after the riots in Durban and the madness I experienced, its better to have this than nothing at all. I would set up the magazines differently, so two high quality lumo green or something similar followed by 4 or peppers and then about 8 to 10 rubber/ceramics. That way, you can give warning shots/highlight target, followed by non-lethal followed by lethal. With that strobe flashing on, you'd be unstoppable

Correction, what you call the Co2 bottle is actually the HPA (high pressure air) tank. To use 88 gram Co2 you have to get an adapter. Co2 is good for emergencies when you can't fill your HPA tanks and you have run out of air.

[@francoiscilliers6853]

From a fellow South African , nice marker for self defence, but I decided on the Valken M17 and with a little mod it gives more than double the energy/joules than the Tippmann TMC elite

[@swamivandermerwe]

Hpa requires a special highpressure pump = R3000 avg. Using CO2 requires a refill monthly,need a asa on/off switch to slow gas leak down. All Co2 and HPA tanks lose pressure over time...ave a month or more. Any paintball gun will work for homedefence. Buying the Tippmann TMC, Stormer,Tiberius,Valken M17,FSC pistol rifle or pistol will cost you R10k plus for accesories etc. FSC is good for EDC , learn the pros and cons , train,do drilss, learn what to do if your launcher fails...Check your launcher weekly the CO2 is full, pepperballs can crack in mag...do a visual check daily. Tippmann TPx is also a large pistol, good power, buy paintball guns that you can adjust velocity up...do not overtune velocity as it may break your o rings ..300FPS is all you need. 200 round hopper paintball gun eith solids at an attackers face,groin,knees,neck etc will put him in hospital. Lol you should have just bought the tippmann cronus , much cheaper same internals. The TMC elite is not really meant for hopper...but alas your choice. TMC is a Milsim lesslethal true AR15 copy. Nice video,lovely rifle, please remove hopper and go magfed...please😂Tip, buy a silicome spray and lube the internals monthly or after each use....will last years .

[@sedition1142]

Can you do a video of you shooting it? Looks great 👍🏼👍🏼

[@kylereynhart]

So I'm thinking about ordering the TMC Elite, how much will it cost to refill the CO2/HPA tanks? Also how can u mount a red dot sight with a hopper?

[@petchieful]

Hi refill is only 20 rand

[@petchieful]

Red dot sight can be mounted on the left or right side of the riffle using special mounting brackets

[@baddnfluenz]

Get a pcp hand pump. It may take about 20 minutes to fill an 13/3000 hpa tank but it will save u money in the long run and u can take it anywhere.

[@YayaSisterhood]

wow may unboxing tmc paintball ok yan

[@Muhammad-Sawah]

Is there maybe a shooting test video soon?

[@petchieful]

Hi i will ask my hubby

[@Muhammad-Sawah]

@@petchieful Allright thanks.

[@spexmaniacuk]

How long does the "gas" last if left screwed to the gun? does it lose pressure slowly?

[@petchieful]

There is a valve which you close when not using soo it last very long until u need to use it.

[@spexmaniacuk]

@@petchieful Thank you, the other thing is with the gas cylinder in place it looks a long distance from the trigger to the should rest (length of pull) can you shoot this gun OK?

[@petchieful]

@@spexmaniacuk yes is fine no problem in shooting

[@swamivandermerwe]

Always have a minimal of 3 Full bottles, rotate the bottles every two to three weeks, empty the oldest one and get refilled. Buy a on/off valve for the asa , there is no way of telling how much gas is in the marker , but if filled every 2 weeks then should be good.

[@trishahouston3656]

Was wondering if this would shoot .68 caliber Chrome steel balls?

[@michaelc3416]

While it may push them out the barrel, it wouldn't have much effect. A paintball marker is a relatively low energy device, and a .68 steel ball has so much mass that the velocity achieved would be very low. And that would be IF you could even get them to feed from the magazine properly.

[@HARLINSVIKINGLIFELNC]

Yes it absolutely will. 💯 % Plus other deadly projectiles.

[@HARLINSVIKINGLIFELNC]

With a few dollars lol, and minor modification upgrades, and experience, the Tippman Tmc, Tmt Elite is capable of shooting through a metal plate. No joke.

[@joekelly9369]

we made some home made pepperballs . my buddy ( questionable) shot me at 4meters . $#@@$%£€£= @#$ yep it all flooded out .. the danger isnt the cayenne pepper its the balls splitting and having to dig them out of your skin for days after ... serious pain

[@HARLINSVIKINGLIFELNC]

LMAO!!😅 AWESOME!! GOOD TIMES! 🍻 LoL.

[@gryphon-x]

[@petchieful]

Yes the one who took a video is filipina lol

[@smokingunclefrank6037]

I won't criticize you but I'll bet you know to wind the mag now and check yo see the marker is empty 🤣🤣bobo yep

[@mexcellent3261]

This guy does nothing more than mumble his way through the entire video. No real commentary or input.

[@FoundingYouTuber-2005]

His video wasn't a review, it was an unboxing, which I thought was fine because he covered all the basics about it.

[@HARLINSVIKINGLIFELNC]

..maybe? ..But we all learn in our own way. A lot of people are afraid of even being on camera doing a unboxing video demonstration. I appluad this guy for even trying too. Maybe?.. It was very first video he's ever done? ..maybe he was trying to contain all his excitement in a mature manner and not be nervous at the same time? .. Maybe it's his first marker gun? and his wife was distracting him? lol. Maybe all of the above? There's many other instructional videos on this gun. I appreciate anyone who makes the right purchase. 🇺🇲🤜💥🤛🇺🇲
