Well, I am not interested in using solenoid to open the valve but only to push/pull the trigger while I turn the momentary switch on. I am not sure what that means when they say that solenoid on paintball has 3 burst mode or full auto. Can that solenoid push/pull the trigger just once while i am activating the…Read more

Hmmmm… let me think about it a little…. Sorry NO! 🙂 I am very tempted now to keep it myself but who can blame me 🙂
Yes, the full shroud would be very nice on this gun but I am also entertaining bullpup idea for it so I think shroud would get in the way somewhat.

Heavier pellet hitting higher then lighter pellet has to do with pellet weight and recoil of the rifle.
