Dm4's ... the best ... why?

[SlipknotX556]

Well, what happened to me was, I was looking for a new gun, I was thinking of an HK speed or an angel 4 fly or a dynasty shocker, karnivore, a cyborg. Now Magman007 told me about the DM4, when I he told me about it, I was out of the game for about 4 months because of some other issues, so I really had no idea what it was. Now I had access to all the gun I wanted to try except the cyborg, I though the HK speed was gonna be it, but I decided to wait till I try the DM4. The angels were awesome in performance, but they were back heavy, making the gun backheavy, the shockers were light, fast, but just not my style, karnivore, I just didnt like period. As a another gun choice I was looking at an Alias, now I own a 2k2, so if anything went wrong with the alias, I would be able to fix it. But last Saturday, when I went to play the first time in awhile, someone I knew had a DM4, held it it was perfectly balanced even with a halo b. With a halo B, 68/5000 tank, the DM4 felt like it was as light as my timmy alone, even with the tank and halo on it. Now it was time to test it, let me tell you this thing was built for the player that is looking for everything, speed, weight, looks. The milling on it was very smooth, it had a very good anno job. I still dont currently own a DM4, because I am short 300 dollars, I hope by the end of July, I could own one. They are really great guns that live up to what everyone says.

ill add my .02

I would take a timmy or a viking over ANY matrix, and yes I have owned a matrix before.

[Miltonyz]

That said I'd take a matrix over a timmie or viking anyday. And I've owned a viking. Just personal preference. I just can't understand why people would pay so much for a DM4 when they can get a great matrix for so much cheaper.

[tony3]

Same with a lot of guns, why pay for milled out vikings if stock work just as good, same with timmys. I think it all comes down to looks, people are willing to pay for looks, if they have the money to pay for an awesome looking gun, more power to them.

A good gun wont make a bad player any better, but it will make a good player a little better.

Dont be stupid, lets face it - if your running around with a slingshot and some paint, you'd become a better player if someone put a high speed marker in your hands.

Ok, with that said... I just bought a DM4. Right now I have not a single complaint and I'd say with out a doubt its better than every gun I've owned/shot (E-blade, X-mag, Alias, Viking... you name it). There is no comparison between an X-mag and a DM4. The DM4 is lighter, faster while still legal, simpler - the bolt is basically 3 parts, Its cleaner... The X mag in my opinion is basically already obsolete. Besides the fact that its no longer produced.

I really think the DM4 is a near flawless design. The eye covers are flush to the body, the LPR is so simlple to tune, the Hyper^2 reg is very consistent... AND the stock barrel is a freakin BOOMSTICK!! You cant beat that.

I cant say enough good about my new DM4.

[xXHavokXx]

I agree. My DM4 just mows. Thats it, no breaking, no tuning, no nonsense just shoots endless streams of paint out like it's going out of style. Smooth body makes it easy to clean between games. This gun just puts paint where I want it. The stock barrel is a boomy so you know it rocks. At 2.3 lbs it's not the lightest gun of all time but it has no kick at all

Check the for sale forums over at pbnation if you don't mind a used gun. Theres usually a few dm4s there for around 1200 or less, many coming with extras

trigger

I have noticed while watching some of the vids of the Dm4, there seems to be a full aouto trigger as well as a single shot stage where you would "Walk" the trigger ... is this correct? Or am i just seeing things? I really must say that this gun is growing on me fast. Of course, I will not purchase until I hve a chance to check one out in person.

[Skoad]

there is no full auto. Probably what your seeing when it looks full auto is the person has it set up with super trigger bounce, its almost like an RT mags reactivity.

it only has semi mode.

edit: I'm gonna post a video up in another thread of a dm4 with super bounce if you wanted to look at it.

[scribe]

i was looking at the dm4.

i've decided on a cyborg. think that's a good choice?

[tony3]

I don't like cyborgs all that much, basically a nice impulse you could say. Not worth the 1k, I'd rather have a freestyle.

CYborg

What about a MacDev Cyborg compared to the DM4. I know it's not very well know but they can certainly roll with the big guys

[Digits]

cyborgs are good guns, my teamate has one.. But i'd still take a DM4 or a 2K4 timmy over one.

[Meph]

Bah, forget the DM4. Save yourself 600 dollars, buy a "Regular" Matrix, but a better LPR and a Predator II board, oh and also if you want breech upgrades and bolt upgrades and such. And BAM you have a faster and more consistent/reliable Matrix than the DM4. Sorry but DYE regs suck, and it's nice to be able to switch out the breech and not wait for upgrades. Hell with board upgrades via DYE get the Pred II!

[magmonkey]

although the dm4 is a nice marker, it is definatly the gun of the month and it will go the way of every other gun of the month
