OK, OK, OK, so I first saw this gun and was like...maybe it will grow on me like the DM4, which is just starting to settle in. Well when I pull up for practice today a guy on the team has a Freestyle. Haha! Of course, it turned out to be very nice looking, and the anno is great. Lets look at some stuff:
Weight- HA! Not a thing to this gun, with a Halo AND a 68/45 it was still lighter than my 2k2 Timmy with a Revvy and 48/45. Compared to the Alias, it feels a bit better, because it just seems to balance out nicer. And balance, is good.
:D
Speed: Once again, amazing! Gun flew outta our hands almost. The owner who is like thee pimp on guns still has to work out the trigger because he said there was a way to get some bounce, but other than it felt like a Timmy with no trigger spring, but with a nice magneticish return. It was a great trigger, and you could easily dump a Halo in no time, very addicting.
Kick, accuracy whatnot: Amazing,..most high end markers are, this is no different. Works sort of like a Matrix as I see it, the back comes off and leads to a sorta Automag Matrix spool valve setup, but apparently a ram directly pushes the bolt, dont quote me on that. Gun has no kick, even at ripping fast speeds, does not really budge.
Overall, marker is great. Its not mine, but I think I feel obliged to clear up some of the worries of this gun. Designs for markers are definately changing, for better or worse, so I guess we shall have to deal with it, and the looks are pretty good once you really SEE it. After the owners successful B2K2 setup that he practically made on a mill, I think I really owe ICD more than I thought I did. They make great markers and dont think that trend has ended with the Freestyle.
:rolleyes: Oh..the Alias is pretty kool too,the mowers are equal. ;)
