        Yep, Brass Eagle is just sucking big time, I refuse to buy product from any of the companies they have acquired, including JT.

        Pres BE Revy's held up to tough abuse, never had a problem with them. Post BE revy's I've had paintballs go THROUGH the shell, I've broken off the feed necks, etc., they just plain suck. One of the major reasons I went with the HALO was to get away from BE garbage.

        Before BE acquired JT, how many products had JT recalled due to manufacturing problems? How about the Proteus being recalled due to the plastic being brittle? Revy's with brittle plasic... hmmmmmm... there is a reoccuring theme here with BE.... don't trust your money or your eyesight with it!

          i was playing with my friends, just backyard and i cracked my friends clear rev into 3 pieces with 2 shots to it. he popped out with his cockerand i shot the middle of the loader twice and it pretty much shattered in 3 pieces, spilling 1/2 hopper of paint everywhere. He was pissed (not at me, at BE, cause it was only like 2 weeks old)

              Yes, new revvy's are horrible.
              I got a Red revvy right after the BE/jt buyout and it was still a pre-BE pre X
              I bout a X, installed it and the hopper has been through high hell and never busted.
              My freinds new black one snapped off his timmy a week ago, looks like that.

                i bought a new revvy too, then i liked the shells off my other one better, so i switched teh new ones with the old ones (the new one was a 12v and the old was a 9v). Then i sold my friend the 9v with teh new shells and before i sold it to him a piece of plastic by the lid broke off. Then after he had it like a day later the feed tube broke when he tried to take it off his gun.
                Also, paintballs get stuck under my 12v's prop now (the prop keeps coming up), can i fix this?

                  I superglued my prop back on.

                  However I would recommend taking a short walk to a nearby trashcan, and saving yourself some frustration.

                    when my pre be 9 volt died due to old age i went out bought a used 12 volt ( pre BE) and boutght an extra shell too... and they claim that BE has nothing to do with it.

                            yes, the QC at BE is well... lacking.
