Dang, look at all the O-rings that thing uses in high traffic areas. IF you do end up getting one, make sure it stays well lubed up and keep a O-ring kit handy!

Mag's got 3 , 6 isn't that many. I'm still on my first set after almost a year.
lube and spares is a good idea though. but then, for which marker is it a bad idea?

oops forgot the RT it has 6 active o-rings as well

Im not an english major, but maybe someone who is can back me up...

The plural form of "matrix" is both matrices *and* matrixes. (look it up)

But since we are talking about a marker called the "Matrix", the word matrix is a proper noun. Wouldnt the plural form for it then be "Matrixs"?

That's a good point. I heard that Diablo actually said at one point that it should be said Matrices when in the plural, but the proper noun thing contradicts that.

On the o-ring bit: Most of those o-rings don't even move (they're just there to create a seal so air doesn't escape certain passages), so only a few will only need replacing regularly.
