Best Options in a pistol.

I am not talking about an existing paintball pistol but if you had your ideal PB pistol what would you want in it or on it!

Bigger mag? Gas efficiency? Light weight? Accurate replication of an actual pistol? Better sights?

What would you want!!

15rd clip w self sealing CO2 in handle.

Something that looks and feels so real that I'd get shot by the cops if I answered their knock at my door while holding it.

Smaller caliber is fine.
3 Burst and Full could be neat but not required.

Even more important then the gun itself would be all the different holster and duty belt accessories pouches etc etc etc

What i wouldnt mind seeing in improvements/upgrade for the TPX would probably just be the 15 shot clip that was mentioned already..

Anybody see the Walther .43 cal pistols yet? they look actually fairly real and are magazine fed etc. I can post up a link or picture if you want?

I've seen them but have been told most paintball fields are resistant to add .43 cal paintballs to their .. menus. I'm thinking of just picking one up for random entertainment on Galiano or something.

OK, see you sunday.
I'll bring my Desert Eagle and my Walther P99 ... up for a duel in the tire castle?

.43 may be a short ranged calibre but really that's what pistols are about. The 68 cal pistols just can't come close to the feel, and form of the 43 cal offerings. At shorter pistol ranges they are dead on accurate, if you wanna play long ball ... stick with 68. Realistic feel, mag fed, blowback action complete with muzzle jump and slide lock on an empty mag ... it's a whole different thing. Personally I like the little buggers, don't get me wrong, I'm not going to drop my 68's any day but the 43's are just a hoot to shoot.
