    I'd vote for the alias simply because the way it feels.
    I've got an A4 and an alias. They both shoot great, but I just can't get used to the way the A4 feels. (the A4's getting preditored right now)

      So therefore eyes are NOT necessary. :)
      IMO, Eyes are much better. LX takes a fraction of a sec to vent and reset after a misfeed, whereas eyes prevent misfeeds.

      I would be willing to sacrifice the cool factor of being able to stick my tongue in my breech for better efficiency and a good pair of break-beam eyes.

      Right now, I got my sights set on a DevilMag. I just have to convice my creditors its necessity :o

        Thats what I thought back when people had ACE vs. Level 10. Plus you don't gotta tune your freaking eyes . Ever person I know that has a mag w/ level 10 has a leak or a problem w/ it (bolt).

          my idea of a backup has always been something that is dead nutz reliable. a marker that doesn't require adjustment, tuning, lubing, or anything more complicated that a few drops of oil every now and then. currently, my backup is a mech cocker (at least until my viking comes in ). say what you will about a cocker but it doesn't need to be messed with. it sits in my gear bag and stays there untill i need it as a back up or a loaner and when i do break it out i don't worry if it will fire correctly. after the day is over, i wipe it off and throw it back in the bag. like i said, a backup should require little, if any, tinkering to keep it running.

                if you have to trade your impy plus the same amount of cash for a alias, sell your impy and get a a-4 fly.

                  LOL I find angels are some of the nicest markers in terms of quality. Maybe its just me. And I never see angels go down, I see so many other guns go down before an angel. But almost everyone I know with angels shoot LCDs, or IR3's.

                    man level X sucks.. Good invention and all.. Good for a mech marker but I would never take it over eyes.. Maybe over reflective.. But still.. That would be about equal IMO..

                    but hell.. My hypermag had LX installed, and I had a halo on top and it still broke paint.. I'm guessing it was the hyperframe screwing crap up... But still.. Eyes > Lvl X

                    So blah i'm done

                    Take a dm4.. The anno is so smooth.. I could rub my body all over it for days.. An alias won't allow you to do this.. Serious.. Just touch a DM4.. Crazy smooth

                      I also have lots of backups. I am on one of mine now while I wait for logic to finish my rail,frame,and "foregrip" battery pack..... the cocker , then classic mag , then tippy , then punisher.

                                I think, if youre not getting an alias, spring for the flyA4... That or a nice trix.

                                (Shockers are nice, but the wait for an alias would have to be a little longer for me)

                                Just my 2cents...
