Includes: · Magazine Expansion Chamber (01) · Collapsible "CAR" Stock (06) The Banshee TM Includes: BT PAINTBALL DESIGNS · BT-47 Barrel (02) · Magazine Expansion Chamber (01) · Combat Stock (05) The Ironhorse Includes: BATTLE TESTED · BT-M16 Apex Barrel (03) · Bi-Pod (04) · Collapsible "CAR" Stock (06) (01) Magazine Expansion Chamber Not only does this add the look and feel of an M-16/M-4 magazine, it serves as an expansion chamber. This improves the efficiency of your air source and allows CO2 room to expand into a gas instead of pushing liquid CO2 into the BT-4. TM The same expansion chamber characteristics often permit playing in lower temperature conditions. With the Magazine Expansion Chamber, looks are certainly more than skin deep. (02) BT-47 Barrel AK-47 looks and feel make this one impressive looking, paint slinging machine. The AK-47 style barrel includes a raised sight rail, faux gas line and hand grips. Don't be surprised if your opponents surrender out of fear alone. Note: If the barrel comes loose and needs to be re-indexed, (sights or handgrips get out of alignment), you need to loosen the set screws located at the base of the front sight and at the base of the ring holding the hand grips in place. Twist the hand grip and sights as one unit until properly aligned and tighten the set screws. (03) BT-M16 Apex Barrel M-16/M4 looks with Apex performance. This barrel allows you to dial-in the back spin from zero to maximum and then adjust the angle of attack from hard left to hard right to drop shot to maximum flat trajectory. Simply move the ramp switch forward to increase back spin and then twist the Apex end to set the angle of attack. The BT-M16 Apex Barrel looks great while providing, what some may consider, an unfair advantage. Note: If the barrel comes loose and needs to be re-indexed, (sights or handgrips get out of alignment), you need to loosen the set screws located at the base of the front sight and at the base of the ring holding the hand grips in place. Twist the hand grip and sights as one unit until properly aligned and tighten the set screws. TM (04) Bi-Pod This collapsible Bi-Pod can be adjusted for uneven ground and folded up when not in use. The Bi-Pod makes for a stable shooting position preferred by snipers, the World over. The perfect addition to the Ironhorse, when every shot counts. (05) Combat Stock The Combat Stock gives you that great shoulder/stock support for optimal stability and balances out the BT-47 Apex Barrel. (06) Collapsible "CAR" Stock Collapse the stock for a short carbine style setup or extend it for a stable firing platform. By squeezing the locking tab located below the stock and pulling or pushing the butt plate, you can adjust the length of the collapsible stock to 07 achieve the perfect setup for your playing style. S.W.A.T. 01 02 BANSHEE 01 03 IRONHORSE 04 06 05 06 Reassembly To reassemble the marker, reverse the Disassembly instructions starting with the barrel adapter, ball retainer and bolt removal. While reassembling the marker, you should oil all O-rings and sliding parts. All parts and o-rings returned to the marker should be free of debris and visual nicks and scratches which can alter the performance of the marker. All screws returned to the marker must be tightened so there is no chance of them vibrating loose. Storage and Transportation 1. BT-4TM must be clear of all paint and propellant when not being used. 2. Be sure to have marker in "SAFE MODE" when not in use. 3. Make sure barrel blocking devise is in place. 4. Store BT-4TM and propellant in cool dry place. 5. Keep your BT-4TM away from children without proper supervision. 6. Your BT-4TM must be free of all paint and not attached to a propellant source while being transported to and from the playing field. 7.
