Tipx/Tpx users?

how many tpix users are there and have any done the conversion to first strike rounds?
how do you like it?
the reason I'm asking is I have a tipx and love it but wonder if the conversion is worth it, never shot first strike.

My buddy did the conversion. His rivals the Tiberius pistol easily! First strike is the most intense paintball ever. Super fast, super accurate (and packs a heck of a punch if I do say so.) Only thing is, cost is way high. If you can pull it off, I'd say it's pretty worth it.

I've only heard good things about first strikes but how long is their shelf life. I know they are made out of different things but will a box last from week to week because I waste more paint that I don't shoot?

FS rounds are nearly plastic, my friend. My brother has only ever bought one box of 100, back when he first bought the tiberius. When he sold it to me about a year later, he had about half left. I've still got the box, and they all shoot great. Longest lasting paint I've ever seen.

thanks. I don't like shooting endless strings of paintballs hoping one will hit my target. there is just no fun in that.
I still want to hear and see what pistols people use and why they like them.

Sorry Spooten...I hate to get a little off topic, but I plan on running FS rounds in my AlphaBlack MKV Tacamo as soon as the D-mags come out. I got a box of 100 for my birthday and so What I would do is load up a few Dmags with FS and then the rest with regular rounds. That way I can take out guys far away first and then swap out to regular PBs as I get closer to the front line so speak.

I have YET to even fire a FS round! :)

I have yet to go magfed except the tipx, but if I do the conversion I may use it as a primary. I really want to just havent put the cash out there, maybe after I do my taxes

just remember most fields will not allow FS,
my field only allows it if I shoot the regulars cant use it on rentals

Lucky for me my field is ok with them. Even sells them for $45/100...not too shabby!

so far this is what I'm working on, installed the fs conversion but have not filled the mags. it's not a big deal some fields wont allow fs, I'll just use the trusty salvo
what yall think?

Sick man! Looks awesome!

I didn't know a tipx could look like that, looks awesome haha.

That is Sick looking, Wish i could do something like that.( If i did i would have bled all over it)

thanks, I'm setting up my rig for it now. can't wait to try it out.

Love my TPX, first thing I'm doing with my summer spending money is getting the conversion and a sweet setup for my pistol. It makes a flawless sidearm, i've gotten plenty of great use out of it and it is so accurate with the paint I use, but I really want a magfed sniper rifle so i'm goin all out and getting first strike.

i run 2 tpx's. heres my logic. your not shooting far enough with a pistol for the price point to warrant the accuracy increase.

fsr rock,.. i just think its not worth it.

I know it's off-topic, and a semi old thread, but I'm picking up a TipX soon, I don't think it's worth it to get FSR either.
