NEW RAP4 Quick Flip Optic

 Quick Flip Red/Green ScopeRAP4 is proud to release a dynamic new product that will get you on target faster, more accurately...and offer you both direct and offset sighting! This amazing new sight is the RAP4 Quick Flip Optic, an electronic sight with some hot features.

The RAP4 Quick Flip Optic displays a red chevron, which grabs your attention and focuses it right on the apex - right where your shot is heading downrange. Considered a faster-to-acquire reticule than a simple red dot, the chevron subtly focuses your attention and makes it easier to estimate drop over distance, so you can effectively engage opponents at all ranges. With adjustable luminance, you can see the chevron in broad daylight...or dial it down for use inside tunnels, caves, or at night.

The best feature of the RAP4 Quick Flip Optic, though, is the way it flips ninety degrees sideways. Mount it to the RIS rails atop your marker, and it functions in the traditional role - and position - as an electronic sight. But when you need to mount a different optic, light, laser, etc, to that rail...you can flip the RAP4 Quick Flip Optic ninety degrees to the left and use it as an offset sight! You don't need any tools...just flip the RAP4 Quick Flip to the side, and you're ready to use it with an unobstructed sight line along the side of your marker.

This helps when your goggles get in the way of using a stock with a traditionally-mounted sight, and allows you to use iron sights or other sighting solutions along the top of your marker - just flip the RAP4 Quick Flip Optic to the side, and you have a securely mounted offset sight ready to go! Some tough players sight in the RAP4 Quick Flip Optic for extended range, sight in their iron sights or other RAP4 red dot scope for close range, and when it's time to engage opponents way across the field...they just flip the RAP4 Quick Flip sideways and are ready for one-shot-eliminations. You can do this too...all without tools.

Backed by our outstanding warranty, this sight is specifically designed for the rigors of hard use...and the single RIS attachment point doesn't take up much rail-space. Carry this sight with confidence into any scenario or mil-sim game. When you're ready for serious action, you need a serious sight...and you seriously need the RAP4 Quick Flip Optic.

MKP ENIGMA Magazine Fed Paintball Marker

MKP ENIGMA Magazine Fed Paintball Marker
RAP4 is proud to introduce the new streamlined, magazine-fed and Tippmann X7 Phenom -based marker that is ready for CQB right out of the box. We started with an electro/mechanical Tippmann X7 Phenom, which gives you electronic firing modes backed up by battery-free mechanical action at the flip of a switch, and installed its critical parts into a Tacamo Mag-Fed Conversion Body.

This created a magazine-fed marker with the reliability and ease of reloading you can only get with using spring-powered high capacity magazines. Getting rid of the hopper also means an obstruction-free sight plane, so you can maintain awareness throughout your full field of vision!

To maximize your accuracy potential from this FlexValve marker, we added a Retractable Air Through Stock that collapses nearly flush with the rear of the receiver when you need a compact marker for cornering and CQB; it easily extends to provide a full-length stock for maximum stability while you line up shots on distant targets - brace the marker against your shoulder, and use the included sights to track running players as you line up for the perfect one shot elimination!

The stock interfaces with a RAP4 Flexi Air Kit that provides a discreet attachment point for a remote line, meaning that the MKP Enigma is free of steel hoses, ASA attachment points, and other unrealistic fixtures...creating the most authentic, realistic equipment possible.

With a full-receiver-length top RIS rail and an auxiliary RIS rail under the handguard, you have plenty of attachment points for accessories and electronic sights. The natural point of aim is true, and the balance makes the MKP Enigma respond quickly, precisely, and responsively, as you play hard in close quarters and line up for long shots across open ground.

With the Retractable Air Through Stock and the Tippmann X7 Phenom's reliability, the RIS rails and Tacamo Mag-Fed upgrade, the MKP Enigma is ready to meet any challenge...and eliminate any foe, in any environment.

The Hurt Locker Paintball Game

hurt locker paintball game
RAP4 is proud to sponsor this spring's hottest paintball event: "The Hurt Locker," produced by Ultimate Paintball Wars and hosted by Paintball USA in Acton, California, this April 14th-15th. To help this awesome scenario live up to our motto, "As Real as it Gets!" RAP4 is going to litter the field with our RAP4 Landmines and arm a lot of players with mag-fed T68 and Tacamo Conversion Kit markers. Step on a RAP4 Landmine, and you'll get a rude surprise - a loud simulated explosion and burst of smoke simulation powder showing you that you've been eliminated.

The RAP4 Landmines add a whole new dimension of realism, as they behave just like real mines laid by, and encountered by, military forces around the world. The one exception: they're designed exclusively for tactical gaming and military training, meaning that they're safe to use. Set one off, though, and you're eliminated just as if you'd been shot. With a storyline that pits US forces against terrorists who are known for setting booby traps and laying mines, these RAP4 Landmines play right into the event's compelling storyline!

RAP4 will also bring an arsenal of mag-fed markers and cases of magazines, so players who are after the absolute height of realism can check out the unparalleled look, feel, and ergonomics of our magazine-fed markers. They'll get a chance to shoot, purchase, and maybe even rent, some of the hottest configurations we offer...and then see for themselves how RAP4 is changing the game!

"The Hurt Locker" will also see a new RAP4 product deployed on the fields: RAP4 Battlefield Scented Smoke! These tactical smoke grenades give off the smell of burning ash to add an even more realistic element to the action!

At this amazing event, commanders and players in the "intelligence officer" role will have unprecedented field intelligence - Ultimate Paintball Wars will deploy a Datron Communications unmanned aerial vehicle to spy on the action! This tablet-PC - controlled aircraft hovers virtually silently wherever the commander chooses to fly it, relaying live, color video back to its operators...so real military personnel get an eye in the sky that can see over fortifications, around corners, and monitor developments without being detected!

One of those UAVs will be flying around "The Hurt Locker," relaying real-time video back to team commanders...just like they currently serve for elite counter-terrorism teams!

RAP4 Summer 2012 Product Release

 

Real Action Paintball is proud to help you out-maneuver, out-gun, and out-play your opponents this summer with some all-new gear and exclusive technology. Our engineers are hard at work putting the finishing touches on technology we previewed to players and the media at the Paintball Extravaganza...including our all-new D-Mags and new mag-fed markers. We have some extraordinary new models coming soon that recreate SOCOM-configured carbines, and accept D-Mags loaded with, interchangeably, First Strike rounds and traditional paintballs. We even have new tactical gear coming your way, because we want to protect and empower you with more than just our revolutionary markers.

Out-maneuver your opponents when you see the field clearly through our redesigned goggles. Our engineers know that it's a challenge to get proper sight alignment with ultra-realistic mil-sim markers while wearing paintball goggles...so they engineered a solution that will be available shortly. You can hit what you can see, and you can see a lot more with our new goggles.

Out-gun your opponents when you carry our all-new mag-fed markers into action. With rifled barrels, mil-sim silencers, collapsible stocks, and paint pushed into your hopper continuously via the spring-powered magazines, you'll have the accuracy and reliability to make every single shot count...and the accessories to create exactly the marker your mission requires. New models even include a Barrett M82-reproduction mag-fed marker that is so real we had to license it with Barrett!

Our next generation markers are designed to work with the all-new RAP4 D-Mags. Made to be tough, light, and remarkably inexpensive, these magazines each feature two ten round vertical stacks of paint that eliminate follower-binding and paint deformation - the stack isn't pressurized until the magazine is inserted. D-Mags will also be available with total capacities of fourteen and, for heavy-gunners, thirty rounds.

This summer, you will even be able to train and deploy with reformulated RAP4 paintballs that are designed to function in all paintball markers...but are optimized for our truly authentic equipment.

Out-play your opponents when you have the performance of the latest RAP4 mag-fed marker, the style and comfort of our latest tactical gear, and the performance of our legendary products. You'll need to be daring, cunning, and smart, which only comes from practice...but you can leave the gear up to RAP4!

Check our website frequently for updates, and stay alert for breaking news from RAP4 - you don't want to get the message by way of incoming paint from someone who got their new RAP4 gear before you!

Landmine At Ultimate Paintball Wars Scenario Event



paintball mine
Real Action Paintball is proud to make the action at Ultimate Paintball Wars games truly as real as it gets this season. In addition to vending the industry's top mil-sim gear and supporting our players, RAP4 will provide each event with a complement of RAP4 Pressure Activated Landmines! We'll arm these blast-simulation paintball landmines and deploy them strategically around the field. Set one off, and you're eliminated.

But if you find one, safely remove it from its position and convey it undetonated back to the RAP4 booth, you'll receive a special prize on the spot.

These RAP4 Pressure Activated Landmines hold ten grams of CO2 in an onboard reservoir, and can be charged from CO2 tanks, 12grams, or other air sources via a special adapter. When sufficient pressure is applied to the full-size pressure plate atop the mine, the reservoir is opened with a mighty bang and the gas is jettisoned across the "blast plate," which can be covered in smoke simulation powder or liquid paint! The bang and accompanying "smoke" or paint combine to give inarguable proof that a player has been eliminated by a mine...

...and to create the most realistic battle-simulation possible!

RAP4 Pressure Activated Landmines are currently in use with military training units, where they are used just like RAP4 will use them this season at the Ultimate Paintball Wars: to add a realistic challenge to the field, and safely recreate the hazards and challenges of dealing with mined positions. Real operators learn how to strategically deploy these mines, detect mines, and move tactically through mined terrain...and this same tactical utility is available to make your paintball games as real as it gets!

RAP4 looks forward to demoing these mines for you at the Ultimate Paintball Wars "Hurt Locker" game this April 13-15, at the "Tropical Thunder" Game June 15-17, and at their other events throughout 2012. Come and discover tactical paintball that is truly as real as it gets...and try to find the RAP4 Pressure Activated Landmines before they eliminate you!
