I am always on the look out for cheap guns that I can loan new guys when they play. I dont like to give them crap guns, and I dont want to give them a really great gun. I know that these psycho guns are not trully autocockers, but blow back cockers of some type, but you also get a halo with it. Thats about 120 for the loader so the gun is 80, I know stores get things much cheaper but is this gun really that cheap. I have priced them before and they were much higher. Has anyone used this gun, i know they are notorious for leaks.

They're not truly autocockers by name. Their function, however, is the same.

That is what I was thinking. All you guys who were pondering getting a Halo. Buy this package and then sell the gun on ebay or pbnation and you can almost recoop your price. Maybe. Or have a Halo for yourself and a decent loaner gun for your buds. Those were my thoughts.

For some reason I thought this gun was a blowback but used the cocking thing to reset the bolt, or something. I guess I was wrong.

thanks

Team mate got his for 20$, from national. The front block is screwy on most of them

They aren't bad, especially at that price! Another advantage is that they will take all the normal cocker parts and upgrades.

I say sang one, for the money you can't beat it.

Actually, it doesn't look too bad. I heard that Phsyco was basically making DYE cockers, but with a Phsyco logo, and after actually seeing a pic, I believe it. That is almost a repliica of an old DYE cocker... I may have to sell my GX-3, buy one of those, and be happy. The HALO is another great thing about that package.

I wonder if you could put an E-Blade on their? If so, I might have to snag one up. I also need a new Balo B. I say go for it, it's a pretty good deal.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

They can't give the guns away, so they have to add a Halo B!!! That's hilarious!!! They're not bad guns, really. They need some tweeking, but for that price, it would be worth having a back-up marker.

The company, PsychoBallistics, was court ordered to stop making/selling them, so distributors are dumping them as quickly as possible.
