the blowback is the same isnt it? i thought it was less weight, meaning less recoil/kick.

the superbolt is lighter, which produces less recoil, and allows the bolt to return to its 'starting position' sooner, leaving more 'bolt open time', hence giving the ball more time to enter the breech, and helping to eliminate ball chops, and since its modeled after the 'long nose' bolt, it too helps reduce blowback.

IS it worth however much it is? is it like 50$?

I personally think so.... I love mine, makes the 'marker cycle silky smooth hehe very spiffy, though as most things, to each their own. :)

Xion,

It reduced your blow back too much so your vibration senson on your warp wouldn't work. Did you ever get that fixed?

GalligerAtWar; If you want to push the performance of your mag up another notch and don't mind replacing the sleeve every year or so, sure, I'd say go for it, if one or more of the above is a problem, it may not be worth your while, where as a long nose bolt will probably suffice, one thing I do reccomend getting is some of the plastic nubbins, for use with a superbolt or otherwise.

Gambit1106; Well, I had left it with AGD before leaving Country Club so they could take a better look at it and see what was wrong, they sent it back with Slushee's 'mag and I havnt gotten around to picking it up from him yet, if they have, great, if they havnt, I'm not too concerned because I plan on hooking up an intellilink to my warp from my Z-Grip, which will solve the problem with no ifs ands or buts. :D
