With the Inception Fang trigger and FLE body
kit installed on our test Eclipse EMek, all that
was left was to thread on the Autocockerthreaded
Stella barrel, cram a hopper into the
adjustable, clamping low-rise feed neck and
screw in a compressed air bottle. Before we
did, however, we were so impressed with how
light the completed, fully Inception-upgraded
EMek felt in the hand, that we just had to
weigh it. Impressively, the Inception EMek
rang the scale up for a feather-light one pound,
twelve ounces ready for a hopper, bottle and
paintballs. That’s ridiculous. It’s one of the
lightest paintball guns we’ve seen.
Once we were done weighing our Inception
EMek for a third time to be sure we weren’t
imagining the numbers, it was time to run some
paint through our English-American creation.
Testing was completed with an Immortal Air
68 bottle with an 850psi output pressure and
a Bunkerkings CTRL loader. For the ultimate
lightweight EMek, a player could very well
thread on a smaller bottle like a 45cubic inch
tank, the lightest hopper around, the Speed
now made by HK, and a carbon fiber barrel and
they’d have a game-ready mechanical paint
slinger that might weigh four pounds!
Then there’s how it shot. We ran some pretty
solid paintballs through this Inception EMek,
including Valken Grafitti and Empire Marbalizer,
with impressive results. Over a radar
