Hi guys, love your vids. I have watched a TON of project salvo and alpha black vids and I think it just comes down to the look but what would you guys say is the better gun overall?
@MrLincolnWoof I like the Salvo folding stock and the quad rails as well. On the field they are identical but I think the Salvo gives you more versatility for just a few extra dollars - Jeff
Also a good idea for another video can be the comparison between the Project Salvo and the Alpha Black Tactical, also in the same video add a shooting comparison between this two
@CheleSegura7 They are exactly the same marker internally and with the same barrel they shoot exactly the same. The only difference is the stock, shroud, magazine and the handle on the Alpha. None of these affect the performance of the marker.
@callinikka4life, the barrel looks pricy. I was looking at the J&J 16 inch ceramic barrel. But I heard rumors that anything over 14 inches is just wasted air to push the ball out. And does the longer the barrel length affect the accuracy? Or the range?
Ok and just another question(s), I have been looking to buy another barrel. But I don't know which threads are for the salvo. I am questing 98? AND one more question, can the picatinny rails also fit weaver rail products?
@C3r0C3r0 sup man Ethan from hustle paintball told me this barrel Pathogen 2 Mil-Sim Sniper Barrel - 98/US Army - 14 inch is a great barrel i went on and bought it and this barrel is excellent the accuracy is great i bought it for my project salvo. also if you have the project salvo you should get that barrel and the low profile cyclone feed system and the E-grip kit also use compressed air not CO2 ...CO2 will harm you gun...
@C3r0C3r0 You cannot remove the pistol grip as it is a part of the receiver itself. If you performed some significant modification it could be possible, but you would have to be versed in all of the tools necessary to do that.
ok so i just got my project salvo about a week ago. i put it all together and went to set my response trigger up and found that i have an air leak where the ASA goes into the braided coil. does anyone know of a way to fix this or what could be wrong with it?
waiting on my salvo now, living in canada i had to order it from a different company but i wish i knew about this review before i ordered it, would have made the choice a hole lot quicker. got a response trigger and the cyclone feed for it with a 20 inch barrel and apex-2 tip
@AbeybladeAsteR70185 The A5 is better as it comes with a Cyclone Feed and has more aesthetic upgrades available for it. As for how well it fires though, they are both almost the exact same internally, so they will shoot very similarly.

There are various rail options, you can either use a riser to elevate your sights or an offset rail to mount your sights to one side. If you have an offset hopper the NCStar MARF will work just fine.
@xXDiscipleGamingXx The Project Salvo is a great first marker! It comes with a one year warranty and is very reliable and easy to maintain. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Hi HustlePaintball, I have a question. It seems like an O-ring came out from my Sierra One marker but I don't know here it came from. I checked my tank but it still had its O-ring. What other places should I check? And will it affect my gun in any way if I don't return it?
i recently got my project salvo and Ive seen other videos of it and people have some crazy attachments i wanna put a longer barrel i am a long shooter also a close quarter one to also i was wondering is it hard to install a E-grip kit?
@calinikka4life It is not extremely hard to install an E-Grip kit, just make sure you watch our video on it! As for a barrel, the most optimal length for any barrel on any paintball marker in the industry is 14 inches.
i have one of these and im looking for some good upgrades, i already have an E-grip, Foregrip/bipod, Aftermarket barrel, Cyclone feed, and carry handle on top. i was looking into maybe a red dot sight and something to help the cyclone (like the techt squishy paddles) do you have any recommendations on useful gear to add?
@vgmax1 If you don't have compressed air, you should definitely get that, and as always, upgrading your Cyclone Feed System with TechT or Lapco upgrades will be a huge improvement.
@vgmax1 How well is this gun working for you? I'm trying to choose between this gun and the X7. Not the Phenom, just the X7. I have an A-5 now but I'm probably going to take it back to trade it in for the Salvo or X7.
@ReinforcedRitter its working pretty well for me, and i have a ton of upgrades in it. its very customize-able, very reliable, and pretty accurate. the only problem ive had was that occasionally during games, the bolt will become stuck and wont fire, but its easy to fix: just pull it back again and its fine. this is very likely because my gun was bought used off ebay >.< honestly i think the X-7 is better. ive never used it but people with them have told me they love them. i have no space left xD
@ReinforcedRitter so yeah in continuation, my gun is nice, but the X-7 ive heard is really good, also if you plan to use an E-trigger on the salvo, there is no selector switch, its an aggravating buttin in the trigger grip that needs an alan wrench to change fire modes -.-
anyway it really comes down to personal preference, both are excellent guns with a lot of upgrades out on the market for them, although i think the salvo looks more badass :P
@HustlePaintball Is there any difference between the alpha black and project salvo in terms of range? (like does one gun start dropping before another)
here is my question.. for my very first paintball gun, should I get the project salvo? I really only do woodsball and stuff like that... this is very confusing for a first timer like me
@KaaaablamCommentator For your first gun, a Project Salvo would be fine. You could also look into the Tactical Black, which is the same gun with fewer shroud rails and a carry handle. It's preference really.
@falconsfan720 We're familiar with a number of manufacturers that make custom grips for high end speedball markers, but presently we aren't familiar with a company that makes custom Salvo grips.
i wanna put a flat line barrel on it but i don't know how and i don't know if it would work.... can i put the 98 custom on it without taking any other pieces off just switching the barrel?
@myxboxisbroke1209 Unfortunately, you cannot put a flat line barrel on a salvo, but what you can do is buy a 18 inch Apex 2 and put it on, it does the same thing as a flatline.
@ghost210 Unfortunately the ACT upgrade does not exist, it only comes on the ACT 98's. If you have a Project Salvo and are looking at upgrading and you already have the cyclone feed, I would recommend getting the Egrip
I'm thinking about purchasing the Apex 2 barrel system for the salvo...will the 14" fit with the stock shroud or should I get a longer barrel? My concern is the Apex 2 "siliencer" tip not being able to install because of contact with the shroud.
@HustlePaintball i wanna put a flat line barrel on the salvo but i don't know how and i don't know if it would work.... can i put the 98 custom on it without taking any other pieces off. like just replacing the stock barrel with the 98 flat line barrel?
@GODSMACKisLIFE The stock 98 Custom Pro barrel will work as it is the same length as the stock Salvo barrel. Threads are the same so any barrel that fits one will fit the other.
@Killerbe2758 It'll perform identically to the Alpha Black Tactical, but in my opinion it's a bit better, since it comes with a quad rail and a better stock, so it's worth the extra $20. The Pathogen 2 barrel on our website is one of our best and most popular barrels! Give us a call or email us with any other questions!
I noticed you guys have aluminum power tubes that work for these, will the aluminum tube work with the rufus dawg wicked bolt? Or would it be better to also get a aluminum bolt to go with it? Thank you
@damnationofsociety The Rufus Dawg bolt is ONLY compatible with the Rufus Dawg powertube. I'd recommend getting an aluminum powertube and an aluminum bolt combo - much higher quality than the Rufus Dawg version.
@HustlePaintball Sweet, thank you very much. One other thing, i heard some where that with the project salvo some people had to change to 1/8 line when they upgraded to HPA, something about it not being as efficient and as good as it could be with the new line. Any idea if this is true?
I wanted to get a BT Rip Clip on my salvo...but u guys said I need a FLASC adaptor...I just looked in ur website and u have the bt4-m98 rip clip and the TMseries rip clip....
Which Rip Clip will I need???
And u guys got the TM7 flasc adaptor and the TM15 flasc adaptor...
@Doom3guy1994 Those adapters are to make Tm7 and Tm15 compatible, we also offer versions for Tippmann A5 and Phenom. the Project Salvo is similar enough to the 98 to accommodate the Rip Clip for 98.
@JBmcwiener it definitely helps. i have my red dot sight on the front of my gun right now because the gravity hopper blocks half of it if its in the back or middle. but the cyclone moves it more to the right it makes more room
@TheBeastRhino the new tippmann a5 is ambidextrous so you can use that if your left hand also its a good gun with cyclone feed already built in and its really easy to upgrade.
i'm wondering if i should get a tippman a5 or a sierra one considering i dont have much money for upgrades and i'm looking for accuracy rangfe a good to handle for a good woodsball game
@victoria0610 Not that I know of, the E-Grip for the 98 is similar but still different and third party companies only make boards for the 98 it seems.
@Deathtizity Yes you can, there is a 98 threaded version. It's just a matter of finding the barrel as of right now. Kee Action Sports has been really shady on getting them shipped to us, though we do have the Lapco Bigshot Plus Apex Tip which is MUCH higher quality.
@24ResidentEvil :) No worries - we just filmed a video today on how to install the E-Grip kit on the Project Salvo. Keep an eye on our channel and you'll see that video come up soon.
@Dakine09ify Yes you can but you would have to cut the trigger guard off. If in the future you wanted the single trigger back, you'd have to buy two new receiver halves.
how does this compare directly to the alpha black? Is this an upgrade or are there pro's/con's to both. I'm asking because I've narrowed down my choice to the salvo or the alpha black, but dont know which one would be better
@venom0237 It would be a good idea to check out our review on the Alpha Black. They both have their pros and cons so it's really a personal choice. All the internals are identical but its about the extra rails or the aesthetics of the marker. So check our our other review on the Alpha Black and hopefully that will help your decision!
@gamefragwalkthrough You don't have to worry about the integrity of the Salvo, that thing like any Tippmann marker can take a ridiculous beating and come out swinging.
@darrinkelly14 I would suggest going with the 98 Custom then, it is smaller, has tactical rails on top, the same internals of the Project Salvo and has been around for over 10 years with many different upgrades available.
@darrinkelly14 They can be removed, but might I suggest the Tippmann X7, if you are looking for something a bit smaller. It also has rails on top to mount tactical accessories.
@shugo207 Depending on how you move the gun around when you dissasemble your gun it could still fly out, I just suggest removing it gently so you can keep track of it.
@Marshmallows10101010 It doesn't lose the feature to fold.. it just doesn't tuck in as well. It is definitely a drawback but the positives of the cyclone far outweigh the negative.
@125jones The reciever halves are made of aluminum (this includes the top picatinny rail) the shroud is made of high-grade polymer, as are the sights and trigger.
@HustlePaintball hey i just purchased a siera one and im inlove but i would really like a red dot sight! i saw some bt ones for just 20 bucks but i was wondering which ones would fit on the marker and do u know of anygood ones to purchase for a lower price. plz reply thx
@Daimen555 Any sight with a weaver/picatinny mount will fit on your sierra one. Take a look on our site at NCStar red dots, they are very high quality at competitive prices and come with an amazing warranty.
Is there any place to attach a one point sling to this? Also would an iFit barrel adapter fit down the shroud?
ZappyRadio 1 week ago
@ZappyRadio There is a sling attachment point at the bottom of the stock and the iFit will fit in the shroud without issue.
HustlePaintball 6 days ago
@HustlePaintball Awesome thanks. Also how long are the Rails?
ZappyRadio 6 days ago
@ZappyRadio On the Salvo the shroud rails are 8 inches and the front rail is about 18 inches :) Hope that helps. -Russell

@JBmcwiener it definitely helps. i have my red dot sight on the front of my gun right now because the gravity hopper blocks half of it if its in the back or middle. but the cyclone moves it more to the right it makes more room

I am afraid that the barrel shroud will break off from the body, because its only held on by one part of the gun.
NoComprehend 1 year ago
@NoComprehend every Tippmann is a pretty solid piece, I wouldn't be afraid of it breaking off with normal use.

@desertboyzero The internals are metal, and the body is metal.The quad rail and some other parts aren't. Anything specific you were looking at?

Do they sell salvos for left handed people?
futureswat93 1 year ago
@futureswat93 They do not make them for left handed people, you would just hold the marker in your left hand.

hey i am a lefty and i am wanting to get into paintball... im pretty new but i have experience in shooting guns.. do you have any recommendations???
TheBeastRhino 1 year ago
@TheBeastRhino the new tippmann a5 is ambidextrous so you can use that if your left hand also its a good gun with cyclone feed already built in and its really easy to upgrade.

Would a Tippmann flatline barrel work on the salvo with the shroud? if not can you link me to a flatline barrel that will?

i'm wondering if i should get a tippman a5 or a sierra one considering i dont have much money for upgrades and i'm looking for accuracy rangfe a good to handle for a good woodsball game
franck560 1 year ago
@franck560 I would suggest an A-5 because it comes stock with a cyclone feed and it can be upgraded with a hall effect E-Grip.

Can the salvo take the 98 custom BT Rip Clip?
Doom3guy1994 1 year ago
@Doom3guy1994 FLASC makes an adapter you can use that we sell to be able to use a Rip Clip with, out of the box it does not fit though.

can i get anouther board instead of the alpha black e trigger
victoria0610 1 year ago
@victoria0610 Not that I know of, the E-Grip for the 98 is similar but still different and third party companies only make boards for the 98 it seems.
HustlePaintball 1 year ago
hey. what type of e trigger should i buy to fit into this gun?
dakot33lax 1 year ago
@dakot33lax The E-trigger kit for the Alpha Black fits the Salvo.
HustlePaintball 1 year ago
Can the e-grip from an alpha black work for the salvo?
FlameNinja345 1 year ago
@FlameNinja345 Yes, they are the same marker internally, so yes that would work.

so can i put a weaver attachment on it?

Can i install an apex barrel?????
Deathtizity 1 year ago
@Deathtizity Yes you can, there is a 98 threaded version. It's just a matter of finding the barrel as of right now. Kee Action Sports has been really shady on getting them shipped to us, though we do have the Lapco Bigshot Plus Apex Tip which is MUCH higher quality.

can u install a double trigger on this marker ?
Dakine09ify 1 year ago
@Dakine09ify Yes you can but you would have to cut the trigger guard off. If in the future you wanted the single trigger back, you'd have to buy two new receiver halves.
HustlePaintball 1 year ago
how does this compare directly to the alpha black? Is this an upgrade or are there pro's/con's to both. I'm asking because I've narrowed down my choice to the salvo or the alpha black, but dont know which one would be better
venom0237 1 year ago
@venom0237 It would be a good idea to check out our review on the Alpha Black. They both have their pros and cons so it's really a personal choice. All the internals are identical but its about the extra rails or the aesthetics of the marker. So check our our other review on the Alpha Black and hopefully that will help your decision!

@gamefragwalkthrough The two receiver halves are made of high grade aluminum, the shroud and magazine are made of impact resistant polymer.

@HustlePaintball so there are no tacky plastic parts? Just to be sure that in combat I can go prone fast
gamefragwalkthrough 1 year ago
@gamefragwalkthrough You don't have to worry about the integrity of the Salvo, that thing like any Tippmann marker can take a ridiculous beating and come out swinging.
HustlePaintball 1 year ago
@HustlePaintball thanks, takes a lot of my mind :P
gamefragwalkthrough 1 year ago
@darrinkelly14 I would suggest going with the 98 Custom then, it is smaller, has tactical rails on top, the same internals of the Project Salvo and has been around for over 10 years with many different upgrades available.
HustlePaintball 1 year ago
@darrinkelly14 They can be removed, but might I suggest the Tippmann X7, if you are looking for something a bit smaller. It also has rails on top to mount tactical accessories.

so if u keep the feed neck still installed on the gun while u take it apart, the spring wont come out??
shugo207 1 year ago
@shugo207 Depending on how you move the gun around when you dissasemble your gun it could still fly out, I just suggest removing it gently so you can keep track of it.
HustlePaintball 1 year ago
@Baconeatersunited They don't work together, you can only use one or the other.

i dont like how if you get the cyclone feed system the stock loses the feature to fold away and can only slide in and out disappointing :(
Marshmallows10101010 1 year ago
@Marshmallows10101010 It doesn't lose the feature to fold.. it just doesn't tuck in as well. It is definitely a drawback but the positives of the cyclone far outweigh the negative.

@Daimen555 Any sight with a weaver/picatinny mount will fit on your sierra one. Take a look on our site at NCStar red dots, they are very high quality at competitive prices and come with an amazing warranty.
