Nova

ummm, havoc? I dunno where you're from, but in my neck of the woods they came with a barrel shroud that kept you from grabbing the barrel and twisting it during play.

lunacy??

i remember reading about section 8 making a new gun off the design that supposedly shot on 25 psi i think it was the lunacy or somethin like that. anyone else hear of it??

This is the gun I shot, it's a Nova (one of the first one's). The shroud was worthless.

Actually, the company that drilled the regs for them drilled a batch of them too deep. No one was EVER hit by a valve, but one did fly out the back of one. When they drilled them too deep, it caused over pressurization, and they COULD explode out the back of the gun. This happened only once. They operated at 95 psi, and worked absolutly flawlessly on Co2, due to the d-icer technology, which was just a buch of tiny beads that kept liquid Co2 out of the valve. You could dry fire them in your house, and no one would care they are so quiet. There was also a Nova ET, which means Electronic Trigger. There was the Normal Nova, SUper Nova, and the Nova ET.

I've never heard of the barrel flying out though.

correct warped

The Nova series are EXCELLENT guns. Stop basing your opinions on here-say and farce. I had the oportunity to shoot a Super Nova ET well over a year ago. It had an INCREDIBLE rate of fire and a nice cushy trigger. Talk about quiet, no vibration, and extremely easy to maintain. It's real shame that they're no longer around.

The mayhem is, at best, a bastardization of the Nova. They employ many ACI supplied parts and a newer, "better", valve design. I dunno, I'll have to try one; if I ever see one.
