cyborg

[assimalated by the borg]

if anyone has a borg, tell me how u like it and why. on a scale of 1 to 10, what does the borg rate? do you think that a grayish-pearl colo would be a good anno for it. i want to kno because i have been looking into buying a borg for some time now but i am gettin negative feedback from some people.

I bought a Cyborg because of its high rate of fire thats easy to obtain. The efficiency is the second reason. I hear people getting 2200 shots from a 68/4000 fill. I know I can shoot a case of paint on my 68/4500 Conquest and have 800 psi left. I love shooting down to 250 psi in the tank. With the break beam eyes, it has NEVER broke a ball. There isn't alot of parts in one either. Easy to maintain. Very quiet. Little kick. As you can see my Emag is up for sale.

The wait time is 6-8 weeks if you order one new. Price is $980 new.

Fragtek has one and he has posted a couple of videos on AO.

You will always get negative feedback about a gun, no matter what. Of course not everyone is satisfied witht there borg

Duelist has/had one,try PM'ing him.

it's "TheDuelist"

not being nitpicky, just don't want him pming the wrong guy.

i know him and know that he likes his, but he can give you the why's and wherefore's better than i can. pm him, he's a helluva fella and i'm sure he won't mind answering your questions.

I got one fairly recently and finally got the chance to play with it with some good paint.

The Good:
- Didn't chop at all
- Light, Fast, Quiet
- Easy to maintain (grease every ~20k shots)
- Low kick

The Bad:
- Eye logic could be better IMO
- Stiff stock trigger
- No adjustable electronic dwell

Fallnangel pretty much summed it up. I absolutely love my borg. It is very light and with the right trigger adjustment it can even make me look fast. As far as maintenance is concerned it is pretty straightforward, a little lube every 20k shots and your good to go. Keep in mind not every marker is suited to every player. There are those out there which will have a negative opinion of the borg but every one I have let shoot mine has liked it. Theres a huge difference between reading about them and owning one. I'd be interested to know how many of those that gave you negative info on the borg has actually played with one. My personal opinion is it is a great marker right out of the box. Hell even Lee looks fast with the thing.


Oh yeah, Fragtek is running www.cyborgowner.com. Drop in for some more info if you feel the need. Its a nice site and while its relatively new it is growing. Check it out sometime.

PM supershifty, hes a buddy of mine and got his a few months ago. He has a QLoader on it. Personally, I don't like the feel of it; I think the trigger is at an awkward angle. But thats just me. Test one out; see if you like it. And as for the efficiency, I can vouch for that. 2200 shots off a 4k/68-- its no lie.

Honestly, if I had the chance to trade my Cyborg for a DM4, I'd seriously consider it. I got a chance to put about 1/2 hopper through a DM4 with a Halo and it was quite nice. Easy to shoot a steady stream, quiet... just not as easy to work on and a bit higher maintenance. Both very nice guns though.
