    i have hade my BKO for a couple months now. And it has performed well for me. A few chops per day, thats about it. Um its no Timmy but performs damn well for the price. Also you want a new reg pretty soon. I like the mac dev i have on mine. I still found out i liked the mag better.

    Props to echo419 for the sig

      The regs used to be a problem... I think my over the chrono readings on the 2k3 kinda show that they fixed that.

      As far as efficiancy I was getting a full egg (ie 180-200 balls)+ 2-2.5pods (140 rnd) off of a 45/ 3k fill (field didnt have 45 fills ) at a 3man this weekend

      My only complaints on the marker would be that the wiring is a bit "delicate" and that the pds seems to slow down the marker alot more than need be... (i dont chop with pds off when using my egg2, so why would turning pds on slow the gun down for it?)

      If I wanted to get nit picky I could mention ICD threads are a pain to find (hence get a cocker threaded bush), The stock grips are kinda... well, they definatly are stock grips , and since the gun is shorter than most (or maybe just than what im used too) I have incured problems "wrapping" airball bunkers... *to be fixed shortly with a 14 inch boomstick (to replace the stock 12in) and replacing my dropforward with a bottomline-esque ASA... (this could also be result of my TINY TINY 45/45 tank... and by "could be" I mean "IS" )

      As you can see im kinda really stretching here to find fault with this marker.. Imho its one of the best value guns on the market at this time...

        for the most part, i've heard nothing but great stuff about bushys.

        in terms of complaints, i have heard that some come from the factory with dirt and other junk in the reg.

        nothing a good cleaning wont remove though.

          I hate bushy's, never liked them, they don't even look cool. I mean just save yourself the money time and effort, buy an Impulse, Angel...... or you can be like the rest of the guys here and get a mag or something else, just not a bushy

            ummm Tsunami generally in this forum, we post our opinions and then reasons for the opinion. I mean come on, what a bad post, "bushies are bad, don't buy one" thats pretty darn weak.




            The trigger is pretty sloppy, needs some shims; mine right now feels like a loose tooth

                oh well, don't buy a bushy just because I said so and they are ugly IMO.

                  reduced

                  Ok, we have reduced the reason for buying a paintball gun to how it looks.

                  That must explain how a spyder body with a dye cast grip frame and a 9V battery is sold to every kid wanting a cool gun.

                  The timmy's are great, but they are what they are.

                  The timmy, impulse, bushy, angel, viking, EM1, and tribal all work the SAME WAY.

                  You switch a solenoid, hammers goes forward, switch it back, it comes back. THAT IS ALL THEY DO.

                  The difference comes down to materials, manufacturing, and design.

                  They are not all the same but they can all be made to perform at the same level.

                        I think the sonic bushmasters look sweet. MacDev makes some really good products. If I were to buy a bushy it would be a sonic.

                          LOL Load, I just busted up laughing when I read that.

                          I agree with Phil, those Sonics are nice. I've always been a Bushy fan. I've always felt them to be the Imps less popular superior, but I'm sure no one wants to get into that argument again.

                              Thanks for the opinions everybody

                              I am probably going to get a bushmaster in the near future. And if a gun looked like a log of poop, I would buy it if it were accurate and consistent.

                                I've got an 02 bushy and I love it. It's pretty much stock and it still rips.
                                There's nothing like passing gas at 25,000 feet.
