Editing CCI Phantom Express

The '''CCI Phantom Express''' was a .68-calibre, direct-feed pump-action paintball marker made by [[Component Concepts]]. It was a long-barrel configuration of the [[CCI Phantom]], with a fixed 14-inch barrel and breech formed as one assembly. VintageRex dates its Express entry to 1988.[1]

== Period advertising ==

In December 1990, TASO advertised the 14-inch Express alongside the shorter [[CCI Phantom Shadow|Shadow]] and [[CCI Phantom Tournament|Tournament]]. TASO listed the Express for US$319.95. The Ultimate Sport advertised the Express for US$295 in the same issue of ''Action Pursuit Games''.[2]

A March 1992 Ground Zero advertisement pictured the Express with a hopper and rear-mounted 7-ounce tank. VintageRex lists both 12-gram CO₂ and constant-air configurations.[1][3]
