Reviewing friend's Cyborg

[havoc531]

My buddy just got his Black/Orange fade Cyborg. We slapped some macro on it a few hours ago, filled up his Conquest and it was ready to go. The tank was set at 400 psi, 200 on the Gladiator reg. We took it in the back yard with around 800 9 month old Diablo Midnight, and 500 X-Rocks paintballs from WalMart. Oh my god this thing rips!! We were shooting a MatchStik with a .689 back. I was shocked at how fast it was right out of the box, no adjustments to anything. Bounce was minimal, as was kick. The tank was around 3800 when it cooled. We shot all this paint and the tank is now at 1700. It is so easy to maintain a really good ROF with the trigger, although it is cumbersome to walk at first because of the inward angle of the trigger. We had three barrel breaks with the WalMart paint (from Christmas). None with the Midnight, surprisingly. All in all, this gun is incredible. With the combination of excellent stock features, I think this marker is an awesome value. I'm jealous and am now considering getting one myself:D . Hmm...Cyborg or Alias??

Cyborg vs Alias...

That is a hard one.

I guess I'd go for the Cyborg. Just to be different. They are very nice.

I shot one and it freaking ripped!(cyborg i mean)

ya I probablly would too..

I would of gotten a cyborg.. But I didn't feel like waiting (need a gun for the end of this month), and I like smaller guns, so shocker it is :P.. Cyborgs are very nice though..

If you've held a bushmaster, you've held a Cyborg. So you'll know what one of those things does in your hand, how the balance is. Personally I hate bushmasters, tried the borg and yep... hated that too. But that's just me, I like a better overall balance that doesn't feel like a teeter-totter.

Though between myself and other people I know who have shot the two. Everybody is able to rip faster on the Alias than the Borg. Both are fast, but faster on Alias.

However the Borg is definately more efficient, possibly the most period. Viking being it's only real challenger. They get over 2000 shots on a 68/45 tank.

You're definately going to want to play with one of these man. Performance wise when one is 1000 and the other is 1400 you're not going to notice much difference. But how they balance out and how the frames feel that's a whole other story with these.

the cyborgs balance feels fine to me. i held an alias yesterday and yes they are very comfortable, i like the angle of the trigger a lot.

[havoc531]

i think the alias looks killer, imo it looks better than the cyborg. oh, lol, the idiot guy at the shop yesterday thought that my friends cyborg was a freakin Dragun TES!! man those guys are tards.

[puckmaster]

i'v shot the cyborg and the alias, and the alias is faster, and more comfortable to shoot.

Cyborgs cost 980...

[baka]

borgs are worth it imo, and there a lil less then timmy's too.

[tjmpaintball06]

i stand corrected, i thought i saw one somewhere for like 780 though

[havoc531]

$$ is not an issue for me. that said, what marker do you think is better?

[Digits]

Alias would probablly be easier to trade.. But then again, so would a cyborg.. Both will probablly be great, whichever you like better :)

[havoc531]

Alias it is!! black w/blue accents, maxflo, pipe kit

[TheDuelist]

My Cyborg is one hell of a marker. It was definitely a tough decision you made between the two. I hope you enjoy the Alias.
