2 shots per trigger pull..

maybe one day I will buy another or build one... I found a few things I would change in the design.

That thing was heavier than heck. Id love to hand it to people and watch them laugh, then hanbd them my phantom... thats the extremes for ya. way light and WAYYY heavy

Ooooo! Now there is a REAL MAN's marker. talk about a classic! Now I shot a phoon for a few years (not a Nasty!) Overall it was heavy but the weight is well to the back. Balance was nice, but I like my mag better.

Actually, weight is why I have a mag with a retro valve rather than an actual RT. Cleaner lines, smaller rail and frame.

Play safe and have fun,

heavy gun = stable shooting platform & better work out.

I dont think i said i want it real hevy. I just dont like it feather light. The ss beral i love thow. if i hit a tree on acident i dont have to worry but the boblong is a very hevy berrel. It shoots great with the paint i shoot so i hate to spend the money on a new barrel but i am thinking about the cp.

I like guns that aren't too light or too heavy. Something like the mag seems to be nice weight to me. Those rental pmi traccers are so light that when I tried to peek around I overly adjusted my shots on accident. My gun right now I have to throw my arm into manuvering it quickly...

I love the weight of my bushy so even. But now i have it with a benchy drop foward extender and a system x cradle. I never felt so much even weight before. With a full hopper im all set, not to mention my gun is light to begin with. Big change from my Basically all chrome mag (so heavy) but she was good for me for 5 years so what the heck.

Few things.......

Weight *sometimes* can turn into a smaller profile, and smaller = better.

As for weight, snapshooting and running is the main reason. You dont see too many fast runners with a 6+5 and a 114ci and a 20lb gun.....Do you? Lighter - better, you can run without as much stuff on you, and if your a back player, you can get your gun up faster for sweet spotting....As well as snap shooting, or having to shoot someone out ASAP.

yes, but lighter guns tend to be misbalanced and subject to recoil forces.

I play front. I use a 400 round pack. automagRT with 68ci megareg, 18v revy(yes 18), and ss boblong 12in berrel. My gun isnt real heavy to me. the guys at the field with light guns complain thow. I can snap shoot with it great and run fast. i just worked my arms out so that it would be ok. I have actuly set with my gun pointed at one bunker with my shooting hand alone for 5 minuts. It didnt get that tired. i was pointing and reloading with the other hand.
