The king of paintball has been dethroned...or has it. For years now new ballers and veteran ballers alike have had a special place in their hearts for the Tippmann A5 but the question on the street lately has been will the newest release from Tippmann , The Tippmann X7, conjure up the same cult following that the Tippmann A5 has enjoyed for years?


For years now paintballin' guys and gals alike that have just been getting into the sport have gone the A5 route due to its reliability, ease of use and of course the bang for the buck factor. Most people have held onto their beloved A5's as they have progressed in their ability because of the A5's ability to do the same. No matter what your skills are the A5 has the ability to adapt and grow right along with you (unless of course your skills have to do with speedball, that's another story).



The recent release of Tippmanns X7 came with a lot of hype. It was the first release in history that was a collaboration between a manufacturer and an existing paintball retailer have joined forces to release a gun. The real question is whether or not a collaboration like this is for the best. There is quite a laundry lists of cons that come from a collaboration of this nature, one of the largest is limited mods.


Although Tippmann is claiming that there will be millions of different setups for the look of the actual gun, that is all banking on when Specops decides to release them, because they have exclusive rights to the mods for the X7. Now does "exclusive rights" mean that other manufacturers aren't going to enter the market with some mods of their own, maybe, maybe not. I guess it all depends on the mood of the guys at Tippmann and Specops whether they decide to pursue legal action or not is up to them.


The biggest downside to the Tippmann X7 is the lack of control that the paintballers around the world have over the "non-commercialized" customization of the marker itself and that is really where the A5 is still far superior, there are thousands of ways already that you can customize your Tippmann A5 and there are no restriction as to who can jump in the market when they create something that is different and possibly cooler than the last guy had created.



With all that said our opinion on the Tippmann X7 is that it is overall a good gun. How can you go wrong with Tippmann Reliability right? A couple of the features that we liked the most about it is the scratch resistant plastic, which has gotten some mixed reviews and most especially we like the e-trigger options. Compared to the etrigger options on the A5 where you have to do a lot of holding the button down and waiting for the light to turn and then stand on your head and jump up and down on your left foot, the Tippmann X7 etrigger allows you to switch from safety, to single shot to fully auto while still have the option to fire in three round spurts. Even with all the politics surrounding the gun we feel it is a great gun for beginner to intermediate woodsball players.

Everybody knows who Babe Ruth is. His name is always equated to baseball. This person had remarkable statistics in this sport, garnering 174 homeruns from 1914 1935.He ranks third among the players with homeruns made. Hank Aaron broke the record after 1976 but never the less broke this record was undefeated for a long time.

Babe Ruth played for three different teams in his whole career. He played for the longest time with the New York Yankees as an outfielder. His performance drastically soared and the number of home runs he can make can even out score the total performance of a team. When he stands on the plate, everybody expects a homerun. He practically led this team to their victories. Without him, the team would be paralyzed. However, Ruth did not play MLB smoothly. He had his own episodes of rebellious acts that caused him suspensions and ejections from the court. Nevertheless, he makes a comeback and every time he finishes a season, he would always perform better.

This left handed baseball phenomenon was one of the players sold out by his previous team. He played as one of the many talented pitchers of the Boston Red Sox. He was sold out because he demanded a raise in salary and they could not give it to him. However, there are certain matters that led to the conclusion that the real reason for his sellout was for the owner of the team to finance a theatrical Broadway show. Unfortunately, Frazee, the owner, made the worst decision in his entire life. Red Sox never won a World Series from the time they let go of Babe Ruth.

The team can make it to the finals but they can never get the title. For years until 2004, the curse existed. Although, people who believed in it might sound crazy or superstitious for some, it is just a lousy excuse to make for not making to the number one spot, there were several Championship Matches cited from 1946 2003 that could support evidences of the curse. If you are a non believer, probably it was just coincidence.

The team had a constant struggle to break the curse. Even the fans were collaborating in performing several rituals in the hope that losing streak would just go away. When 2004 came, the curse was broken when they grabbed their first World Series title since its effect. According to USA today, when they won, their fans left various items on the grave of Babe Ruth. It seems that with all of the constant struggle that the Boston Red Sox team and fans put to break the curse, it all paid off and has gone away. It was further evidenced by their repeated victory as World Series Champions in 2007. They had a 4 0 win against the Colorado Rockies.

Despite the curse that everyone was talking about, Babe Ruth remained an icon to baseball. He became a Hall of Famer. He deservingly called as one of the greatest baseball .
