There pretty cool they have their on site i would put up a link but im not on my comp but from what ive heard the only prob with them is being a bit over priced.

[potti]

from what i've heard, the idea is pretty good, but the gun isn't worth the money. the trap door limits the rate of fire greatly, and by that i mean limits to like 8bps, from what i've read. the hole idea of the trap door is to eliminate chopping and breaking, which can be done with other techniques such as the level 10 mod for the mag.

It also sucks down gas faster than a Shocker and is not available in vertical feed. Neat idea, but in no way worth $750.

[Spray Painter]

it's a cool idea but way to overpriced

[EsPo]

i was just about to say that overmind, it doesnt have the help of a bolt to push the ball out, so it must use gas like crazy. its definetely over priced, for like 100 more bucks you can get an emag from xtreme.

I could go on forever about these guns. I really wish I had one, but I'm not allowed to buy anymore paintball guns or even sell mine to buy a new one. These things are so durable, and even more so if u get a bead-blasted anno. They are really simple, and has almost no maintanance. The ROF is pretty low, but if you look at the people that go into tournaments with pumps and do pretty good, then why cant u use 8bps?

You can't chop a ball, you really cant short stroke it, you can use any gas and it still works good, you will have an original gun, etc... When I met the guy who makes em (John Reible or somethin) he said that they were thinking of coming out with an electro version and vert feed later I think. If they got the ROF then it would be simply incredible.

I'm kinda a walking billboard for this gun. But yes, it is overpriced.

Heh angel boy in in the same boat you are, no new markers, or selling the one i own for 2 years!

They are pretty nice. Their limited to 9bps. The olny really sad parts are the inability to use a good drop configuration (you gotta do a bunch o stuff to make it work) they arent vert feed, they arnt as fast, and they are expensive.

I wouls still buy one tho, there really cool, quite ingenious, and very unique. there deffinitely a head turner. If they just changed the grip around, nade a few effeciency changes, and a few other things, you would be set! It would be nice if we could get mr reible ove onto these boards, his insite would be appreciated

Actually the drop thing isnt that hard.

First just get the drop/tank/reg/whatever you want to put on it. Then just put it all on there like you normally would.

Then get a bottomline adapter hose thingy like the one that you would put on a minimag. For those of u who dont know what im talking about... Its just a regular steel braided hose at one end, and then at the other end it has threads like a tank would.

Real simple, real easy.

[FutureMagOwner]

wasnt there another gun with a design similar to that? something like an alien


anyway who cares if its only 9 bps or whatever

[EsPo]

i cant even shoot 9 bps
