[srrdude]

This thing is so insane...

check it out

[FooTemps]

sorry for being stupid but...

What is that? A viking?

[srrdude]

another pic.. yes its the same gun

[wobbles82]

Viking? No no my friend you are mistaken., that is no Leaf Ericcson, thats Matrix my friend, aka Matrices aka Trixxy aka "da gas eater". Like the scheme of colors, very nice. Bet it works welll. :D

[srrdude]

Yes, this is indeed a trix. Aka gas whore/guzzler/ fill it after every single game. Thanks, i love my colors. Haha, its the only one of this color- its a green titanium.

Yes, it works INCREDIBLY well, well enough to overlook its incredible gas problems. But, it sucks gas enough for me to consider trading it if i get a good offer. But i love it and i want everyone to be able to admire it. So go ahead. Admire it.

[FooTemps]

silence you... i can't tell the different from an viking from a trix for some reason... I guess it's because I haven't really seen a viking in person.

[heftylefty]

oo so pretty. i didnt know that they make leds in htat color? i remember when i had a trix, never really worked well, but miss it like no other. i dont know y, maybe its cuz i could rip on it:)

[Ov3rmind]

That thing is so hot I could lay a log in my pants.

[CpSuPeRkId]

if the poor air efficiency is making you think about selling it, then i suggest saving up 150 bucks for a FF bolt kit. its like a miracle for the trix. around 1600 shots per 68/4500. its a small price to pay to get rid of the only "bug" trixes have.(besides FSDO/bolt stick and constant leaking of course, lol jj:))

[srrdude]

footemps: its ok, i saw my first viking (real one anyways) yesterday

Lefty: I didnt know they did either- and well, they dont. This is the only one. And i first used it yesterday, not a single problem the hole day. Only one chop (18 month old paint, 12 volt revvy) and i was walkin it like none other (outshout ironmans, viking, lassoya, gz, ir3). I love this thing.

ov3rmind: it looks hot now, but you havent even seen it shoot. Youll drop a forest worth of logs.

So much for 5,000+ posts ;)

Its nice, kinda color crazy (black, chrome, and pewter)... none the less clean.

[srrdude]

lol... yeah, id prefer a black lpr and barrel but hey, i got it like this and it was definately worth it.

[heftylefty]

how much did you get it for? or did you trade.

[srrdude]

i bought it. I got a good deal. Wont say a price though


i just got a pm from a guy who wanted to trade his 2k3 cocker for mine. Says his is worth over a thousand and mine is worth 600. Ill spare him the embarassment by keeping his name to myself.

[ERut]

Might want to update your sig a little then;) nice though.

[UltimatePaintballer]

yea i offered the v/f cocker to him, i thought i would just try it and see, maybe the guy likes cockers but no he has to get all snotty and think hes way better cause he has a trix and can sell his for more then mine. really i could find a trix like yours for 650 cause yours is a non lcd so they run for around that price, the ones with the lcd and bolt kit are like 900. with all your stuff on it yea its probably over 1000. so just saying i was just wondering, had an idea you wouldn't but just wanted to try. :mad:

[ZAust]

the more i look at matrices, the more i like em. now i just need to shoot one:D .

[srrdude]

of course when you shoot one, you will only need to buy one.

i think thats how it is with a lot of guns

[srrdude]

perhaps your right. But its sweet nonetheless!!

[trev_pbller]

Ahh yes I finally get to see your Trix...I like the pewter look of it with all of the other colors, lookin good. Maybe I'll get to shoot one sometime, but now I'm waitin on my new beasto to arrive:D.

[darklord]

Nice pewter LED. Pretty much stock, but nice.

Pretty much stock?

[trev_pbller]

I didnt really get that one either, but oh well...I still like it, stock or not.

[dcmander]

Nice tank. ;)

Pretty much stock? I only spot 3, maybe 4 things that aren't stock (barrel, feedneck, snatch grip, and maybe even the trinity), hence I say "pretty much stock". I guess it'd depend on the internals, too... again though, it's nice. I had a similar trix, only with a different reg, feedneck, and barrel...

[srrdude]

lpr, feedneck, snatch, boomstick, ardy red bolt kit, chip, nw q/d.

[No sKiLLz]

Here is the solution to air innefficiency. And it's a delrin to boot.

http://www.evolvepaintball.com/matrix_categories.php

Free Flow is the has-been bolt. Good when it came out, but Evolve is the top of the pile for now.

[srrdude]

hey.. i got an offer for a straight up trade for an impact ir3. Its legit, should i take it? Id appreciate input

its stock- but its a dust fade, has mem6 cops 2

[vaa]

Have you ever shot an Angel? They are very diff. than the trix. If the Impact is mint then money-wise I think your making out by a little bit. Keep in mind the price of ir3's are going down cuz of the Speed and the A4. Personally I liked my trix(basically same upgrades as yours) but I love my Wased out Viking w/ACE. :D
If you want to try something else I say go for it. It's not like your getting a run of the mill ir3. Remember they make 90° frames for trixes now.

Oh btw I'm the guy that's getting the Blue to Silver LaSoya signed Fly on PBN.

Good luck.

[srrdude]

oh haha. Yeah its got 6100 on the shot counter.. and i know about speeds and a4s. I was never interested in angels until i used a fly ir3 on sat, and i know they make verts for trixes but they are 180 and fugly, and i still need better efficiency on my trix. Sot thats what, 300 bucks? or trade for the impact...

thanks.

[darklord]

Stick with the trix bro, but if I were you I'd get some kind of bolt upgrades, be it the FF bolt, leethal mod, etc. etc. Other than that I'd say you're solid, I guess you could throw on an ACE if you want, but they aren't out yet for LEDs. BTW, I think liquid makes new snatch grips specifically for trixes that don't stick out as much as that angel one does, if you're interested! :D

[No sKiLLz]

Went back, filled the tank to 4500psi, and grabbed a full case. Well, what do you think happened? I was able to shoot all but 83 paintballs from a hot 4500 fill on my 68ci. That’s insane. That’s 1917 shots off a 68/4500. The last shots were still in the low 290s, as I again stopped when the tank pressure reached 300psi. So I may have been able to shoot the whole case, but I wasn't pushing it. The weather was hot (93 degrees) and humid, and I didn't have a problem with bolt sticking, shooting down, or chops through the entire process.

You have to register to look on this website, but this is a clip of the guy talking about the Evolve Delrin bolt kit for his Matrix. Here's the full link.

Angels are nice. See if you can try the Angel and decide which one you like. If you already tried both and like the Trix better on everything except efficiency, this bolt kit is your answer. If not, Angel it is. Good luck.

[srrdude]

i know aboub the bolt kit. I was hoping for someone who has owned both to say which he liked better. One more thing


im broke.. so upgrades arent much of an option.

[No sKiLLz]

That's a nice sig.:)
