Paintball Gun Parts: Upgrading Your Old Gun



If you and old paintball gun stashed somewhere in your garage, do not throw that old gun yet. By changing some of the old paintball gun parts, you can upgrade your old gun and make it look like new again. However, before you start looking for paintball gun parts and restoring that old paintball gun of yours, you need to make sure that you know what you are doing. If you want to upgrade your old paintball gun, you need to learn more about the different parts of your gun and how these parts function. Furthermore, before you change any of your paintball gun parts, you need to make sure that your old gun is still in good conditions.

Upgrading The Air Source Adapter

When it comes to changing paintball gun parts, upgrading the air source adapter is one of the easiest things to do. To do this, you first remove the air source, the hopper, the paintball and the barrel of your gun. Removing these things will make it easier for you to change the paintball gun parts. After removing the air sources, barrel, hopper and paintball from your old gun, you may now unscrew the old air source adapter from your paintball gun. Use an open end wrench to remove the hose attaching your air source adapter to your paintball gun. Remove the fitting from the old air source adapter and clean it. You may use the same old fitting to attach the new air source adapter to your gun. Just make sure that you rewrap the old fitting with pipe sealing tape before you use it with the new air source adapter.



Upgrading Your Hopper

Although the hopper is technically an accessory and not a paintball gun part, you cannot really play paintball well without it. The hopper feeds the paintball into your gun and without it; you will not be able to fire your gun continuously. Since you cannot really play paintball well without it, many paintball enthusiasts consider the hopper as an important paintball gun part.

Over the years, hoppers have evolved a lot in terms of shapes, sizes and functionality. Traditional hoppers use gravity to feed the paintballs into your gun and let you fire a few paintballs at a time. More modern hoppers on the hand are motorized and allow you to file continuously up to 300 paintballs in one setting. If you want to have more fire power, change your gravity driven hopper into a motorized hopper.
