the alien?

**IcantBelieveit** · 08-30-2003, 01:49 PM

well...i for one think it looks pretty neat. Its unusual looking yes. But it does not look like a shocker spyder, timmy and all the other mainstream guns...I give him credit for daring to be different. If the performance issues work themselves out i would probably consider buyingone

To become a widely accepted new design, this Alien would need to have a distinct advantage over our more common electros other than the idea of being an overgrown blowgun. Since I haven't heard anyone, neither then nor now, say this is more accurate by far or insanely gas efficient or capable of spewing out 40 BPS, I think this is an idea that needs to be ditched. The Alien would have to gaurantee I hit everything I shoot at to make me put my markers up for sale.

Boltless markers

If you want to see a pretty no-bolt marker that wont chop check out the epic. its a mech, but that dont confront me.
take a look:

ever consider the alien has more performance than the epic?

**Nick O time** · 08-31-2003, 01:05 AM

can you imagine

an evolution 2 on that thing or like a huge 88 tank with no drop or whatever and like a 4 inch gen x 4 barrel. it wouldnt even make it past the front of the gun. lmao the freak show gun.

**Nick O time** · 08-31-2003, 01:13 AM

No, not really. The only electro marker i would consider would be an emag anyway. I dont care for any boltless marker and i dont think electronics=performance. If you have some documentation of the alien out-performing the epic i think this would be a great opportunity to share it. I posted the epic link because it may be of interest to those looking for this style of marker. Also, the alien does not really look any smaller or even as small as my mini with a 10' barrel, so whats the big deal?

it also has a was board and ace.

the whole damn thing screams "bolt-less sliding door cocker-like marker"

look at it closely there's a "ram" part that goes to the door...

I'm not saying it sucks, I'm saying it won't revolutionise anything...

Can't wait for Jim to finish his electro epic

**jpdgas** · 08-31-2003, 01:49 PM

So he is working on an elctro one then huh? ive always wanted to shoot an epic, but ive never gone down to S.C., I guess they demo them there. I like the idea, but i dont trust it and im in love with my marker, so oh well. i see the price has dropped too, used to be over 700!

I creator of the alien lives only a few miles from me and plays at the field I play at

. I shot it about a month ago, its pretty sweet. I like it's overall feel. It had a really short trigger pull. He said it should be done soon. I don't know if I would use it as a primary gun. I think is a nice gun but i think it would balance horribly the way i would set it up.
