Even though I found this interesting little trinket at a convention, it’s also available on Amazon and various other online retailers. It’s a bottle-opener, but it works like a butterfly knife (also known as a balisong). In other words, the opener itself is encased between two hinged handles, which …

The response trigger system for the Tippmann 98 custom is by far one of the best customizations you could follow through with for a Tippmann 98 custom A.C.T. It definitely doesn’t get any faster, and maybe even compares to the electric trigger grip. This system is different though. It …
