468 Split Upper/Lower Receiver

troy 468 paintball gun 

 RAP4 is proud to take you to the range to check out the amazing utility inherent in the M4/AR-15 carbine design...and show you just how we've reproduced that to make our 468 the most easily - and authentically - convertible marker on the market. Patrick, the host of Monday Night Paintball, loaded up an AR-15 with two fully accessorized upper receivers, and packed along a 468 with fully outfitted uppers as well.

Can you tell which carbine that is at first glance? Don't feel bad - our engineers spent a lot of time, effort, and money making the 468 you see later in that video, look identical to the AR-15 you see first.

Most impressively, they captured the M4/AR-15's modularity with that quickly-swapped upper receiver. See how easy it is to swap upper receivers on an M4/AR-15, between one designed for CQB and one designed for longer range accuracy? It's just that fast and easy - push the two body retaining pins to the side, lift off and replace the upper receiver, and push the pins back - to swap upper receivers for your 468 between different mission-adapted receivers!

You can do it in the field; in your team's headquarters; at the chrono range; even at your car. There aren't any special tools required, and you don't even have to degas the 468. Just push the pins out...

...and swap upper receivers.

It's easy, and rather ideal, to own at least two upper receivers, so that you can customize them for the two most frequent roles you play. Keep one light and fast for CQB work. Make the other a little longer, wearing optics you never have to remove again - they migrate with the receiver, even retaining their zero - to handle open spaces and longer ranges. Or adapt one to light up the night, and wear the optics you require to excel in the dark. Or modify the other with a RAP4 Phantom Grenade Launcher for when you have to take out armor, bunkers, or play a heavy gunner's role. Or...

Or...

The options are endless. The power is yours. The swap...is as easy for you as it is for the armed professionals who trust the M4/AR-15 family of carbines. Be sure to check out that video, so you know what's up with the 468, the most realistic, and adaptable, milsim marker available.

Real Action Paintball - As Real as it Gets!

Biggest Mag-fed Game At World's Largest Paintball Event

largest painball game in the world 
 Real Action Paintball is proud to invite you to the biggest mag-fed game this season, an epic in the making that can only be hosted at one place: the world-class mil-sim fields at Oklahoma D-Day. This June 13th, the Thursday before the renowned Oklahoma D-Day game, we'll occupy the village of Bastogne with a hardy cadre of Allied defenders...then pit the Axis forces and their Panzer tanks against them.

Will you be in the action?

The week leading up to the June 15th Oklahoma D-Day big game is filled with scenario games, tactical clinics, and once in a lifetime deals at probably the industry's largest consumer tradeshow...right next to the camping area that regularly turns into a tent and RV city full of thousands and thousands of paintball players. They come early, they play all week, and as the days draw closer to the big game on Saturday, thousands of players take to the Oklahoma D-Day game fields to play scenarios that test their courage...

...and introduce them to fields that are worthy of being Hollywood movie sets. These weekday scenario games are intense, larger than most other big games in the country, and provide the perfect opportunity to test tactics, maneuvers, and strategies on the actual field that will be in use for the big game.

The Siege of Bastogne finds elements of the 101st Airborne Rangers surrounded and outnumbered by the Axis forces and their Panzer divisions. The Allies control Bastogne - in this case, the Caen Village portion of the D-Day field - and the roads leading through the area. It's a crucial target, the Axis forces want it back…and they plan to use the roads to attack from multiple angles!

Our mag-fed only Siege of Bastogne will feature enough roles and frontline action for all who attend. The rule that makes this game special, though, is the requirement that players use only magazine-fed markers, as we create the most realistic mil-sim game possible…and reflect the limited supplies available to the besieged Allies during the historic battle!

The use of mag-fed markers also creates games where tactics and marksmanship rule the day, rather than the sheer volume of paint. Mag-fed games offer true tests of strategy, communication, and the close quarters battle drills that decide the outcome of real conflicts around the globe. They create games where the action is as real as it gets - from the hyper-realistic look and feel of the markers used (and used against you!), to the realistic round counts of the detachable magazines, to the emphasis on squad-level tactics and individual marksmanship. At the Siege of Bastogne, you'll see how well you really stack up against similarly armed players in this season's most dramatic scenario game.

And you'll do it on one of the world's top paintball fields.

RAP4 Scarab Arms Warranty And Service Work

scarab arms paintball gun 
 Real Action Paintball has you covered with the industry's best warranty for our products, and now, we've got your back if you shoot one of the hot new Scarab Arms guns, too. We've struck a strategic alliance with Scarab Arms to officially become the largest North and South American service and warranty provider for their mag fed paintball markers...and we handle their service and warranty work in the UK and Europe as RAP4UK. We even sell Scarab TGR 2 mag fed markers, so that you have even more choices about how best to explore this exciting tactical format.

We pioneered the mag fed format several years ago as the ultimate way to experience paintball: with markers that feel, handle, and look as real as it gets...and even operate with detachable spring-powered magazines that encourage real world round counts and reload exactly like M4/M16 magazines. Our players responded by supporting the Tactical Ten Paintball League, Operation: End War, and the many additional scenario games and tactical challenges we've put on to showcase the mag fed format.

And now, we're helping bring you another exciting development in paintball: the introduction of Scarab Arms mag fed markers, which utilize T68 magazines and have a high degree of interoperability with our latest generation T68 markers.

That interoperability is part of what helps us offer full warranty work and service of the Scarab Arms mag fed markers, so whether you buy a T68, a 468, or a Scarab, you know that RAP4 backs up your marker with a dedicated staff of armorers and technicians. While your marker is designed to withstand the abuse of years of full-tilt play in the toughest games, we know that sometimes things go wrong...and when they do, it helps to have a professional armorer standing by to get you back in the game.

That's what we provide for warranty and service work on our paintball guns, and now, we're the biggest provider in North and South America of that same dedicated service for Scarab Arms mag fed guns. We've even got our European and UK players covered. Just contact us to find the best way to send in your marker - you might not need to send in the whole thing - and we'll turn it around on our end just as fast as our armorers can turn their wrenches.

Because you need to get back in the game. Because we have your back, no matter what. Because we're Real Action Paintball, and we're glad you're on our team.
