I saw a post up for Milsig so I figure I put one of up of ATS. Not many people know about ATS. But they are the same class – magazine fed and would go well in the limited ammo category. The basic model is the ATS AT85 and I've modified mine to look more like a sniper rifle and use First Strikes. In my opinion, these markers would hold up pretty well to sniper competitions. Here are the basic specs:Marker type: Mechanical magazine fed, closed bolt Operation: Semi/Full auto Ammo: 68 Cal paintball Capacity: Magazine 25 rounds, Forward loader 60 rounds Air Source: Compressed Air only. Must be modified at the factory for co2 Here is mine  Here is a sample of how it shoots Overall, it's a bit of high maintenance but by far my favorite marker. |

Company website is: www.getrealpaintball.com/It's a great marker and unique in a way that it is a true "chain fed" feeding. Advantages of being chain fed is that, it is mechanically impossible to break/chop paint when working properly. Disadvantage is that the insides are complicated and troublesome to diagnose when issues arises. |

Some pretty cool ideas there. It took me a little while to figure out what exactly their "front loader" was, but it's a great way to turn a 25 round mag into an 85 round mag. Too bad you only get that on the first mag though.
With your FS mod, how many are you able to get into a mag. I would assume around 10-12? Nicely done.

Idk those ATS mags are pretty short I would say you'd be lucky to get 6-7(i'm pretty sure the only way to get em to work is to single stack the rounds). But who cares these are super sweet markers. The AT85 was the first marker I ever used in a game and I fell in love. Shooting an ATS is kinda like riding a vintage Harley Davidson... Part of the appeal comes in the shear violence of it all. They will both put a big smile on your face. |

That's pretty awesome... I just got home from a game and someone was telling me all about these. I wouldn't mind giving one a try sometime.

The biggest one, 8 inches long which I epoxied two mags together holds 8 rounds but it's ugly and difficult to reload when lying prone. My favorite one is the one that holds 6 rounds. I made that by epoxing just the bottom half of a standard mag. A standard factory size mag modded to first strike only holds 3. I dunno why but it is the most reliable. Parts to make a complete mag ran me around $15.00. If you didn't recognize it, the spring and follower are from tiberius mags.   |
