sell it and buy a mag. you wont be disappointed, especially when in 2 years an emag will still be the same price and a dm5 will be like 300 used

but a DM5 will still be a DM5 wich is (field legal) faster, lighter (in most cases) sexier (in most cases) more consistant, and usually easier to sell, even if it is for a tad less then he bought it for.

[behemoth]

Riiiiiight.

Nothing shoots as smooth as a matrix..im not sure i would shoot anything else, kind of want to try a quest but it would be hard to get me to put down my UL framed pm6...thing shoots like butter. I havnt shot a dm5 but i have shot all other year matrices..so im sure they shoot just as well, just make sure your lpr is tuned right..i shot a dm6 a few weeks ago that kicked like a shotgun because they kid that owns it thinks he knows more then the dye techs :rolleyes: ..ahh well enjoy the gun.

[dahoeb]

good deal

[mr.mag218]

wow, id definately take the 3 emags. i've owned a few matrix's and guess what....i always go back to shooting a mag. i just need a gun that can shoot a consistant 240 fps without constant adjusting. but it shoots great and i was sharing the deal....didn't mean to start a mag VS every other gun thread

[fullofpaint]

werid, my DM5 is WAYYYYY more consistent than my mag or any of my other guns :confused:

[CKY_Alliance]

Are you saying the mag or the dm5 is inconsistant?...I havnt had a consitancy with any of my matrices.

[mr.mag218]

mag takes way more tuning and even then isn't garunteed to work in reball...not the dm5.

Ill trade you my tacone :p let me know if you get tired of it


thats a great deal on the dm5, lets see some pics of it

mags taking a lot of tuning? its a mag! tune the level 10 in one afternoon and never touch it again!

i'm sure the dm5 is a great gun, otherwise it wouldn't be so popular. i hear nothing but good things about them. with that being said, i've NEVER had consistancy issues with any of my 4 mags, they shoot about as tight as possible for a pball gun.

after a good high end marker breaks in, if its got a decent reg and airsupply, the shot to shot consistency is largely paint/barrel match. its not that my mags are inherently more consistent than anything else out there.
you give a mag and a dm horrible paint matches, and they'll both shoot about as consisent spyders

....i'm rambling now....

lot of tuning....for it to shoot at 240 fps.

[magman007]

so how consistent is your rt reg over the chrono? Please, i would really like to know, try shooting it without the rt chrono procedure.. then tell me. I know you arent constantly shootng, and shooting fast to hit that top chrono speed..... I garauntee you a broken in hyper 2 is more consistent over the chrono than an rt valve that is being one balled.

[mobsterboy]

You're kidding right?

you realize i said nothing about cosmetics, consistency or anything else other than value. The DM3's and Dm4's went for what, a grand, maybe more new. What are they worth now? ****. thats what. so tell me im wrong.
