Hello,


Looking for anyone who can help me with info on either converting a paintball gun for WWI machinegun sound or an outlet to buy such a contraption. I saw a link on GTM's site to a video called "fokker scourge" and on that video one of the aircraft sounded like it had a paintball system in it. I have messed around with painball guns as I had three teenage boys (yes I survived) who were into it and we played for several years. I have many paintball guns laying around but I am worried about weight and what type of tank to use. I know the wound glass tanks are lighter but I dont want to die from one exploding either!
I guess I dont want to reinvent the wheel if someone has already done the work. Thanks for any leads anyone may have. Watch for the HUN in the SUN !

Awsome video: http://s11.photobucket.com/albums/a160/deljon2005/Videos/?action=view¤t=FokkerScourge2008.flv

there are some little electronic gizmos around that do that. Small circuit board running on a 9V battery, small speaker attached. I picked one up at the local flying field swap meet. I have seen them advertised in some of the mags... MUCH lighter and smaller than using the paintball gun (although shooting paintballs might be fun...)...

I have seen them but have not been as impressed with the sound of the electrical speakered units as I have been with the "pop pop" of the paintball gun. Not interested in the barrel or shooting anything I am just looking for info of either the conversion or an actual unit to purchase.

Thanks
