Stock Class Paintball Gun

By Jerry Manuel


Want to get into stock class paintball? This highly overlooked game format has been steadily rising in popularity as more and more players are looking for cheaper yet challenging ways to play the game they love. The shame lies in that few players will ever give it a chance, but since you are reading this article, you must realize how great this format is.

What makes a stock class paintball marker unique? A couple of stuff. In fact, let us discuss what makes it so unique below...

One of the more noticeable aspects is the size. When gazed upon by a new player, a stock class marker will look like a pistol. However, it is nothing more than a pump without a hopper or large tank. No wonder it's so small right?

A gun without a massive 68ci 4500 HPA air tank is one thing, but a marker without a hopper? Now that's just a whole other level of crazy...

In place of where a hopper would be, is a 12 to 20 round feed tube, that rests horizontally on the top of the guns body. Most often the feed tube is only 12 rounds, which is 198 shy of what most paintballers are used to hauling.

Being a tank-less marker, a stock class gun is powered by a 12 gram co2 cartridge, which can provide roughly 20 to 50 shots. With only 20 to 50 shots per cartridge, you better make sure every shot you make counts, otherwise your in for a lot of reloading.

If your in for a more challenging way of playing this amazing game, look no further than stock class play. It's an amazing game format, which can help you develop your skills and turn you into a better player.
