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?

One of the most common questions new paintball players has is, “What is the best paintball gun”; in this article we will hope to answer that.
