    JUST SAY NO!....to macroline that is!

    This is the last time i use this crapola!...This was brand new line! Did this at about 700psi...well thatwas the last pressure i saw b4 it blew. If the line looks ugly to you...you should see what 700psi does to skin!...ill get the pics of that up soon as i change the bandage!

            This crap blows up all the time... I will NEVER use macro micro crap.

            Steel braid is the only way to go. Measure what size you want and order it. I used shrink tube and covered mine so no scratches.

            I don't know WHY people used this crap.. cool colors? WHY?!?!?

                          Lets stop the "mine never blew on me"

                          yeah... but I hear at least two stories each week of a macro/micro line blowing and have seen 4 at different times blow up on the field.

                          I have NEVER seen a steel braided hose blow and have not heard of one blowing.

                          \Theses lines suck. WHERE did this trend come from? One day everyone was like "lets use a piece of plastic for my high pressure airline, it will be tight, fresh, sick!!" and now everyone one uses them. WHY!!?!

                            well animal mother, people like things that add color to thier gun, many people have never had macro or micro explod, its just the few rare cases and everyone goes crazy.... macro is cheaper than SS line and u can replace it much eaiser. it makes life eaiser by letting u flex it more and u can disconect it without problems, instead of having to buy a Q/D. but what ever, u keep using your SS and ill keep using my Macro, even after it blows (if it does)

                            edit, also ive never seen micro or macro blow, and i play at the field prety often... and for about 4 years.

                              One of the guys I play with had his steel braided hose fitting fail and the line completely disconnected from the fitting discharging the contents of his tank. I have been using plain black macro line for years and have never had a problem. I have never seen macro fail. On the other hand the fittings can be a little leaky.

                              P.S. 32* products are low quality. I would avoid purchasing them.
