Time for a new gun.

The "Dark Viking" is just a very slightly modified stock viking. All they do is add Dye grips and a blade trigger. Thats it. The price is good, but if they are outta stock you can look elsewhere. All vikings come stock now with the sidewinder, tornado, lightning, and WAS board.

And maintenance does soley consist of lubing the bolt and a few drops in the macro or ASA.

Heres the AKA web site www.akalmp.com/main.htm Check it out. You won't be disappointed. Just jump on the bandwagon before everyone else does

It's my handle, isn't it? That's why no one bothers to try my links.

[Steelrat]

No, he tried you link and liked the Dark Viking. I just wanted to show him the main company's homepage

[No sKiLLz]

That's right. Cuz the Dark Viking is better than any matrix out there.

[Steelrat]

I dunno, the NYX, Ironman, and Trauma are NICE markers. But the Viking has much easier maintenance, and is much cheaper.

I chose the Viking.

so is it worth gettin the dark viking? or just the regular viking sense its only slitly upgraded. does the dark viking have the same waranty as the regular viking?

[Steelrat]

Dark, casue you get the extra parts essentially free. Warranty is the same, since all the parts are purely external. Darks have a bit of a wait, though.

[Trauma]

dark viking, or trix, whatever one u pick you will be happy with, each of them have great ROF, and are efficient with air

[cockersuk14]

havent seen alot dark vikings but ive seen matrixes outshoot halos. no joke a kid i wasnt there but a think a friend might have got it on a video. and halo bs feed 22+ bps so u do the math.

[No sKiLLz]

Both are fast, but since Chicago we know Eggis X board is faster than WAS. Not that you can outshoot the WAS, but just in case your finger has an epileptic seizure on the playing field...

Regardless, I believe you get what you pay for. I would like to see the Viking viced to a bench and rapid fired at a target to see the spread pattern before I ever consider picking one up. So far, I have not seen a low pressure marker yet that can sustain a high ROF with no drop off and stay within a smaller circular pattern than a Trix.

And good luck finding someone to help you if god forbid a "maintainence free" marker should have a problem. Not many techs working on AKA's yet.

Come to think of it, my whole time reading about Vikings, I have NEVER once heard of drop off problems with them. It's designed rather well, and if there is any dropoff at high rates of fire, it is likely barely any (plus, in the unlikelyhood of that, the SCM would probably end up solving it).

ya the dark viking has like a 5-8 week wait..whitch is alrite sense i still gotta get some more $$. freakin truck payments and vacation. i would have it if it wasnt for those!

Youd have to shoot one to really understand. If you get the chance, don't pass it up.
