        well besides weight; resale value, less maintenance due to simpler bolt, just about it basically unless I think of something else. Both will perform very similar.


        Also Evolve can no longer sell their bolts in the US so you'll have to find another way to get your hands on one. They however are able to make DM4 bolts.

            Thanks

            Thanks for all the feedback guys. Those look insane in the vids! Are the barells changeable? Or are the stock barrells sufficient? Any types of paint that work/dont work well with the Dm4? I used to only use marbalizer ... anything new I should know? I know I sound like a total Noob, but im not really. Just new to the advancements! Thanks all!

              Barrels are cocker threaded. It comes with a Dye Ultralite barrel anno'd to match the gun which is a great barrel. Bore is .688 and can pick up different size backs if you really wanted to. I have shot Diablo Blaze, Jt Maxim 2, cheap 35 dollar cases from local store, few others. All worked great, I think it babies the paint :P

                the best reason not to get a DM4 is because the DMX (NYX DM4) will be out by World Cup (or so we're being lead to believe..)

                    The DM4 is the "gun of the moment." This sport is VERY cyclical. Next spring it'll be something newer, maybe the DM5? I plan to pick up a DM4 when I can afford to buy a gun again...

                    EDIT: In my experience, having owned a ULE E-Mag, X-Mag and SFL, get either a DM4 or a ULE E-Mag. Both are GREAT guns. But the X-Mag has the removable breech and non-clamping feedneck. In my book, those were two MAJOR drawbacks. With the ULE, you can get an Angel threaded clamping neck. That and nearly no one uses the eyes on an X-Mag, just ask around...

                    1. No clamping feedneck stinks, especially if you have different guns, it's hard to get a hopper to fit securely in both without a clamper.

                    2. Removable breech, good idea by design, but it introduced a lot of problems. I had the nect come out of my breech on my SFL after diving into a front bunker. What's worse, it happened in LA during a 10-man game, not good... Not to mention the fact it had to go back to Shocktech to get fixed...

                    Just my $.02 ~ It's you're cash, spend it as you wish, you're in AMERICA!

                      or is it the best reason to get a DM4? A lot of people are starting to sell off their DM4's for relatively cheap just in hopes to get a dark dm4 or the nyx dm4....and as of yet noone knows about them. It could just be a new body and nothing else.

                      Heck the thought even crossed my mind and there is absolutely no info on it, just rumors :P

                        Dm4 update: Some crazy canadian has been working on a delrin bolt for a while. He says he has one in his dm4 running at 35 psi, if that means anything to any of you.

                        approx price ~$40

                          both are nice guns... its really preference odds are once you get your lvl 10 tuned the ace will become obsolete and pretty much useless....didnt stop me!!! removable breeches are awesome but problemattic at times.. ie the screwed up warp breeches!! then dm4s are nice just remember like the xmag/emag the dm4 is just a hocked up version of the matrix...and remember manuel mode is cool espically when the kids start complaining that you shoot to fast!! thats pretty much all i can say both are great the dm4s should have good to great efficiency..and the xmag has little maintence and a great trigger after a little work with shims!!

                            Agreed. I don't understand why many people don't even consider trixes and jump right into DM4s (fashion?). I'm NOT attacking the DM4, I just don't see that many advantages the DM4 has over the regular trix to go the extra buck. But then again, that could just be me being a trix lover/owner.

                            Between an X-Mag and a DM4 well... tough, the DM4 is easier to shoot (fast that is) and the X-Mag is a more well built product all around (kinda dumb contrast between the two) but both guns will make you proud.
