dye dissapoints me *dm5*

[FSU_Paintball]

I'll say it:

I STILL THINK THE DM4 LOOKS LIKE A STUPID-LOOKING SPACE AGE NERF GUN

Doesn't mean the marker doesn't rock (it does), I just think it looks a bit stupid. Always have thought that about the looks. The DM5 looks much better in my opinion.

Yep, still posterior uuuugly.

[WARPED1]

I don't like it. But I am sick of people saying thats not a Matrix. IT IS! What do yall think the DM stands for? Dye Matrix.

How much better really can you make the dm4?

They didn't want to. I wouldn't make a big change if I made that much money.

[FSU_Paintball]

I've never heard anyone say the DM4 isn't a matrix

I have. I think people mean it isn't one because Dye changed so much of the look/parts of the Matrix.

Sweet gun. IMO the DM4's and now the DM5's do look a little weird, but they still freakin' rip. It's unfortunate that the best looking gun on the market is made by Smart Parts. The best looking stock gun, that is.

(a Karta emag is the best looking gun ever.)

my $.02

BTW, how are DM4's on maintenance. I know they are a little easier to grease since the fuse bolt is one piece, but reliability? Hopefully the DM4 prices on ebay will drop a bit now that the DM5's are out. It's between a DM4 and a Speed for my next gun I think, although an e-cocker is tempting...

I thought the DM4 was just a matrix with a nicer, lighter body, an on-off in the front, and a "one piece" bolt...

and internal LPR!

I know, thats why I said that. People expected way to much out of the dm5. I think they expected a change similar like 03 lcd trix->dm4, a change of that magnitude but dm4->dm5. The dm4 is an awesome gun, and I am sure the dm5 will be.

[Reaver]

I'm sure its gonna be a great gun but i still was hoping for more.

[minimag03]

I actually think it looks better than the DM4, or it might just be the professional pictures.

[68magOwner]

i like it, i feel they improved the DM4 as much as they could in 1 year, and look forward to the DM6 already, wish it wasnt quite so tall, but otherwise, im very pleased with how it came out, and would love to have one

[Enemy]

i dont think it looks too much different than the dm4 just a low rise feedneck... though if you go to dyes site it says its smaller lighter and faster.. how i ask the dm4s programing was already pretty wicked and this doesnt seem like a big enough design change to make that big of a difference.. basically i dont feel it deserves to be a dm5 it should just be an updated dm4 cuz thats all it really is!!!

[athomas]

I like the look of the Shocktech DM4 the best. If I were to buy a Matrix, that would be the one.

[Mosfet]

I would like to see what it would look like if a company gave the DM4 some smooth milling like on a DM3. No rolling hills with artistic valleys. Just give me the good ol' pipe look. :P

Personally, I love the performance, but hate the size.
But thats just me.
