For those that are interested, I'm sure MilSim Products will be able to get these for you... MilSim Products.

Tippmann Sports is proud to introduce U.S. Army Paintball, an entirely new brand for players seeking high-quality equipment and a realistic military experience at an affordable price. Tippmann is launching the U.S. Army brand with the introduction of Alpha Black?, a new marker that incorporates several popular upgrades, including a high-performance 11? barrel, an integrated carry handle, an all-metal receiver and a removable magazine that doubles as a tool kit. As an added benefit, Alpha Black can easily be modified to take on an M16 style stock and shroud ? allowing players to take the field with a new marker that mimics one of the most popular rifles in U.S. military history.

The new Alpha Black marker, as well as future products from U.S. Army Paintball, will be launched in conjunction with a broad-reaching program that will utilize the core values of the U.S. Army to help promote safety, responsibility, teamwork and sound strategy among all paintball players. The first-of-its-kind program will utilize a special Web site, in-store signage and other promotional tools to build awareness about U.S. Army Paintball and encourage new players to try the game.

Incorporating Tippmann?s proven in-line bolt design; Alpha Black will also offer unmatched reliability in the field. Plus, it will be backed by a comprehensive one-year warranty.

the best part about it is for entry level players.. you cna get a decked out m-16 type marker for $160.00 bucks, stock, sight, carry handle & stock.

it's great for younger players and also a good idea for us vets for a backup marker.

They are nice....but with all the hype I was expecting something better!

Mag loaders or something like that.

Looks like from the tech docs that it's built around trhe M98, same with feed neck. Might be compatable with the Cyclone. Again another good entry level marker for us Milsim types.

Yeah, it is built on the 98 design. I just can't believe it took them this long to get the magazine placement correct so it looks authentic in that area. lol

It looks like a great entry level marker, much nicer than the original 98 or 98custom. I am glad to see the Army getting involved in paintball. Maybe this will motivate some more youth to join the armed forces and serve their country.
