Update: 07-10-02 – The CSR is pretty old now, check out Planet Eclipses latest gun the CS2. Hello, CSR. Just as we (and most everyone else) expected the Planet Eclipse CSR, is a special edition CS1. The Planet Eclipse CSR is a heavily modified version of the CS1, the trigger frame, body, POPS on/off, trigger, eye covers and barrel is all unique to the CSR. At first glance the gun looks like a much more slimmed…

It’s here, just as Dye promised. The e.Voke is the news, so let’s cover that first. What is the e.Voke? The eVoke is an ear piece that when connected to your M2 MOSAir (more on this in another post) will tell you in-game information and help you run drills. In-game information will be: game timer, shot count and g-count by tapping a button (I’m guessing on the unit itself, on the inside of your mask?…

Just 12 days ago Planet Eclipse released the Gtek 160R, and now they are back at it with another new gun. Planet Eclipse has provided very little information thus far, the video description on YouTube reads, “Collaborative. Special. Refined.”. Maybe the CSR?

Planet Eclipse in the past has only used carbon…

https://paintballruinedmylife.com/2019/02/28/planet-eclipse-gtek-170r-review/ Planet Eclipse has been pumping out the new paintball guns in the past few years.

Planet Eclipse has manufactured far and away more paintball guns than any other paintball company has in the past few years. As the name would suggest, the Gtek 160R is an iteration of the…

Just a quick rant. Padding on jersey and pants needs to go and the NXL needs to lead the way. There is one reason tournament paintball players want padding on their jerseys, bounces. it could be argued that padding on pants is useful but, in reality, it does very little for knee protection. To make matters even worse, the NXL allows the use of chest protection, yes chest protection. You can wear a layer of…

UPDATE 2/21/17: NPPL Cancel First Tournament For nearly 20 years, the NPPL was the biggest paintball league in the world; it had the best players and the best teams. But in late 2008, the league filed for bankruptcy; from 2009 to 2013, events were held branded as the USPL and later as the NPPL. Participation dropped every year until the league ceased operations entirely in 2014. Chris Cole, the current head of the NPPL, has officially…
