The last gun form the Tippmann Custom 98 ACT family is the Tippmann Custom 98 Pro with E-grip. Here are the gun’s features:
• ACT (Anti Chop Technology) is a patent pending design to help eliminate ball chopping and ensure consistent performance. Using a new technology that has the front and rear bolt working independently of each other, ACT virtually eliminates ball chopping and improves ball accuracy with less barrel cleaning. And unlike other anti chop systems, this system maintains ball velocity shot after shot and does not have to be re-cocked if the anti chop technology had to be engaged.
• The E Grip now exclusively with WAS electronics features 5 firing modes including semi automatic, turbo, 3 shot burst, auto reponse and full safety auto (eliminates accidental bursts of fire). For 2006, Tippmann has added the new WAS board which fires up to 30 balls per second, is more durable and extends battery life with an automatic shut off after 30 minutes of non play.
