Are you considering buying a new gun?

Reguarding the new markers every year topic...

Look at smart parts. They basically have stuck to the same markers (impusle & shocker & ion) only updating them every few years and it lets then charge way less per marker. Just smart business.

I thought they can charge way less per marker because they don't have to pay themselves $50 per marker to sell them?

up until a few weeks ago I had boughten NOTHING new(except paint)

But I broke down and bought myself a DP Fusion, very very very nice marker and well worth the cost (though they did give me the wrong manual )

I plan on picking up an A1 here in the near future(new) because I absoulutly love that gun. Somthing about it just turns me on and I love using it. I actually plan on buying about 3 NIB markers in the near future. I also plan on buying a few used if I can manage to save up enough.

I despratly want to buy a DM6, I'm wating until the DM8 comes out though before I spring

I have no love for the A1. I don't care if the PBN kiddies think year model means everything, the thing was a HUGE step down in quality from the G7 platform.


I loved my G7, but WDP has left a bad taste in my mouth lately....

Can't even find g7's for sale used anymore....atleast not most of the time.

I'm considering looking for a Invert Mini if I didn't get Emag lowers.

Well I guess now I'm considering an 08 Fusion since the Thresholds can't take upgrade boards and I am not a huge fan of dipswitches. Trigger pull programming ftw.

I know the thresholds are supposed to be pretty light, perhaps thats what it is? All the reviews I have read on it have been good so far. I havnt heard to many complaints yet. Actually the only one I have heard (and it will be changed in future manuals) is that the recomended dow 55 is swelling the bolt orings to much causing bolt stick. I am not sure what lube they are recomending now though. There is no point in relubing it from the factory anyway or before/after playing, my fusion gets relubed once every 6 months if its lucky.

I'm not sure.. It just FELT cheap while shooting it, almost like it were a lesser quality aluminum or something. I dunno. I'm used to Borgs and Vikings, which are made solid. The gun shot nice, don't get me wrong - it had a little kick but it was also brand new. BUT, for the price - honestly, I'd get a used shocker. SRSLY. I had one and as long as you keep on top of them, they are great markers. You can even find a used NXT for that price.

What about the A1 don't you like just out of curiosity?

Only things I don't like about it is the shim adjusted LPR, the eye covers, and the fact that you have to buy seperate guages to adjust your LPR and HPR for fine tuning.

EDIT: Looks like they replaced the eye covers with som 3 peice model, very nice.

Got a super hot wife/gf?

Nope no wife or girlfriend right now. Is your question pertaining to me being cheap or not having a flashy car? either way it equals the same

Single = - (+ ) but more time for

Ahh... if only i was interesting and good looking. I would front and say that its the same cost vs performance decision as in my post, but i doubt anyone would believe it.

There will be boards for the threshold I am sure. I contacted DP to ask about it, the boards arent compatible with each other, but DP is getting ready to release a better adjustable board for the fusion and 08 fusion. Just thought you might want the heads up.
