Some observations:
1. Wow.
2. This thing gets more looks than any other gun out there (Angels, Excaliburs, etc.)
3. Insane ROF in Hybrid mode. The marker, for all intents and purposes, went full auto. After the first 4 balls (one in the chamber, three in the vertical feed) it went into full blender mode. It was kind of amazing. You NEED a Warp Feed for this mode. Let me say that again. Hybrid mode is almost useless, unless you are very skilled in very short burst, or unless you have a Warp. But still - Holy sheep-dip!
4. With the stock barrel, a full 12V Revy, and an adjustable 4500 psi 68ci system, the thing seems a bit heavy after about the 6th game. (I do have a cold, so maybe I'm just being a wuss today.) Definitely too heavy for my GF, though, or so she says.
5. Stock barrel is nice but loud. Easy to clean, though.
6. You can make a powerfeed barrel fit on a centerfeed Mag (Emag or RT Pro), but it's a pain. I had to insert my Boomstick into the marker, then insert a thin Allen wrench through the hole in the vertical feed, depress the spring loaded (thingy?), and slide the barrel over it. It kind of locked into place, and did not move. Of course, this is a pain if you break a ball. Luckily, I sold my Boomstick to a guy today.
7. It's basically impossible to chop a ball in Electronic mode unless you are an idiot like me, and forget to turn Revy on (twice!).
8. It's easy to inadvertently flip the selector level to Hybrid mode from Electronic. This happened to me twice. See #3 above.
9. I love the plastic safety clip. I have it on a lanyard connected to my barrel plug.
10. AGD should think about incorporating a set-screw into the top of the vertical feed tube. Putting tape around the hopper sucks. I am really hesitant about putting a set screw in there, since the gun is such a piece of art.
