              Why would a team change to a completly different gun in a tourney? If you played with a trix why would you switch to a vik mid-tounry? Doesnt make much sense to completely switch guns.

              Its a comfort issue not a "pic the best gun issue".

              Sorry guys but a timmy, angel, vik, are the same dam thing. Stacked tube blow back. IF you guys feel the neww to get into a pissing contest over which one is best feel free. Personally i think the vik is a dam fine gun and so is the timmy, however a timmy is just not for me.

                      quote from a timmy owner

                      The nicest thing about Vikings is that they sell in the $700 range so it may be a better buy for the buck than the newer Timmys. They're also a bit easier to maintain and tend to be more efficient than Timmys. It doesn't come with an eye but it's LP enough that it's supposed to pinch rather than break when set up properly.

                      and u get alot shots off on a viking then a GZ...

                        maybe you can clarify that for me. I was under the impression that most of those guns were simliar to an old pmi our or current spyder, less an LPR.

                        Sorry just a little hazy on this issue please explaing what the diff is in a open bolt blow back spyder and an open bolt stacked viking, bushy, pulse, ......

                        Feel free to post as childish as you like. You know good and well that an LCD is smaller than a shocker. I am on the tail end of this convo and it seems that more mature folks in this post have all but given up on you. Besides if you have seen it twice now and have yet to change your mind then I guess an additional post wont help.


                        Jon/xpm

                        I agree man! The vike is a bad gun for the money. Hell you can get a made to order Featherlite for a little over 1k. Truly custom made for the player, you can barly touch a speed with a lifetime warrenty for 1k.

                          It just deals with how the hammer operates. A blowback gun requires the hammer to be pushed forward by a spring, and returned from gas vented from the valve when the hammer strikes it. This is how Spyders and all their clones operate.

                          Angels, Bushys, Vikings, Timmys etc. are electropneumatic. The hammer is both pushed forward and returned by a solenoid toggling gas between two points in a ram.

                          The designs themselves do share some similarities, but at their base, they are different designs.

                            Hey I was wondering where the cheapest place is for an un-milled gloss black viking. Someone had mentioned $750 for a dark viking eariler and while that seems like a very good price I was just seeing if they could be had for any less while still coming with the WAS board, newer noids, and the eye holes already drilled and tapped. A picture of the setup i'd like most is below.

                            :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: Metal kids have more fun!! :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

                            Atleast wipers are good for something........target practice.

                              The Dark Viking is your best bet. However, I must warn you, it's more of a matte black then a gloss black.
