Epic marker...no bolt???

[mixwell2]

Hey everyone.

I just got back from Hollywood sports park in Bellflower and one of the ref's was telling me about a marker she uses called the Epic She said that it is new and has NO BOLT!! Comes in both mech and electro.
The subject came up when I was telling a few players how the L10 bolt works. These players could not believe that the "Mag Blender" wasn't chopping their house paint
Has anyone here heard of this marker??

Just curious the whole NO BOLT thing sparked my intrest

[Blazestorm]

It has a trap-door that opens and shuts quickly allowing a burst of air to propel the ball...

Flawed design, nobody liked it, cost around 700 for a mechanical version and NOBODY buys them.

I almost feel sorry for Epic

Thanks for the reply...we are opening a shop in L.A. and she wanted us to stock it Said it was the greatest gun ever!!!

I read about it in APG awhile ago. Neat idea.

If you want to stock a boltless marker, talk to the guy who made the alien. It's still not in full production but I'm sure he's looking for dealers.

The Epics not new. It's been around and it does sound interesting. In an article in PB2X Linda Ambler (senario player) wrote that it shot pretty well and was a sound marker. Sounded cool but not my thing.

Ha found an old isuee of APG. January '03 with two Epics on the front cover.

i heard there were a few problems with people that have used it, cant get a high rof?

[jesseyo13]

There are a few problems with it right off the bat for me. THe recharge rate is 45ms. That is extremly slow. Angels can be set at 11ms to 20ms. The max input presure is 800 psi. They are a ton of tanks that are preset at 850. 700$ for a mech? No wonder no one like them.

I want to shoot one, just because they look so cool. I didn't know they had the electro grip out yet.

wow, another lefty at HSP, I was starting to think I was the only one by the way I always seem to be left alone on the left side of the field, trying to hold back the entire other side's right-handed division with my KP. ;-)
