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

[Cryer]

MacDev is way under-rated, imo. Cosmetically, I dont care for their borg, but it rips hardfast.

Nothin feels like a mag, tho

[Smoke]

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..)

And watch, the rapper DMX is going to start suing people over that.

How is a dm4 better then a trix with evolve and tadao 4.0/ace? Besides weight?

That's the second time I fully agree with you tony.

I have nothing against dm4's, personaly I think they rock. However compared to it's sibbling the trix, the dm4 is waaay to overated. Most of my team use dm4s and while they perform awesome, I haven't found a single reason (not even weight since I own an IMM) why to fork out $1,150 USD for one.
Back to topic, compared to the X-Mag it's a matter of taste. Putting the sentimental value aside, IMHO, the dm4 is more accurate, faster (it's trigger is friendlier) and lighter than the X-Mag/E-mag. While to some folks these two don't necessarily make it a better choice, to me that is reason enough to go for a dm4 over an X/E Mag.

Well if you agree with that statement, then you have to realize most highend guns are mostly about looks. Lets start from the top xmags? A ule emag will work just as good and be almost as light. Milled viking? Stock one will shoot just as good. Milled impulse? Stock bodied with the same ups will shoot just as good. Same with cockers, and just about every other guns. Timmys also, a nice 2k2 timmy will shoot just as good as any other timmy. It is all about looks when you get into the 1k+ market.

Intimidators are as expensive as they are because at least $400+ goes straight into Gino's pockets for EACH one. Which is why Classic Timmies I still think are nice, especially since they only went for what their cost should be.... 500-600 bucks. Well add in the better board and clammy then yeah, 650-700 is what Timmies right now should be going for. But difference between Classic and say.... Dragon intimidators (remember when they were actually the hot item?) do ya? Not much, fancier body and 1 less regulator. The internals were interchangable. Though that's nice, if you find a Classic you'll have plenty of parts to fix it up with if it ever breaks on ya.

But hey if people don't mind paying money so Gino can have a warehouse full of jetski's and sweet cars then by all means go for it.


As for the entire "all high ends = looks" department. Yeah.... basically.

[C_22]

Yes, 1,000+ guns are about looks mostly. Looks and fashion. Here where I live, about six months ago it was all about timmys. Now, it's all about dm4s. Fashion.

DM4's do rock, but I've found that Freestyles with a 25mg(or g w/e weight it is) switch and a Chaos board are equally fast. Plus the Freestyle weighs less and costs less and have an equal amount of kick(none). Of course a lot of people don't like the looks, but what does that really matter?

[Digits]

Honestly.. I had an NYX.. And i've used my teamates DM4.. There is no real difference.. I didn't even notice a difference in weight.. The DM4 did seem a touch smoother though..

And freestyles are good guns.. The only reason I don't really like them is because there isnt much you can do to them.. lol.. They just seem boring to me, but they are nice..

Yeah, about the only upgrades are a lighter trigger switch, Chaos board, aftermarket hpr and new barrel. You can't even upgrade the lpr as of now and the feedneck is already a no rise clamping. The BoneBreak Freestyle just came out though, so if you wanna spend like $1300 to $1400 on a Freestyle you can. Also, apparently ND's have an uber secret FS in testing(can't be to uber secret if I know about it, lol).
