    i just got mine and you must get a viking

    i just got done playing with mine for the first time and damn is it fast and really really good on air. they are a little heavy but that dosent bother me.

    also more info

    the 03 vikings and 04's are different in little ways like the 03 has wire nubbings for detents and are a slight taller and longer. 03's also dont come stock with scm's, milled for eyes, and humphrey noids like the 04's do.

    some people like 03's better but really i never own'd one. i just own'd a 04 for about hmm two days now and i have to say that they are worth every penny

    look here for pics of mine.

        some 03 vikings have eyes, and humphrey noids. Some of the early 03s may have mac noids and no eyes. Dont get a blind viking. In 03, AKA switched from mac to humphrey, so the later ones will have hump noids. Mine also had eyes stock, and a WAS board. ATM is right though, 03s do not come stock w/ SCM. Some ppl beleive that the stock 03 lpr is just as good, but cost AKA more to make, and if you have any issues w/ it like creeping pressure, you may want to just replace it w/ the SCM.

        The 04s are smaller though, and a little bit lighter, and AKA started using Pandora boards in their guns. Slightly different as far as programming. There are lots of submenus to scroll through. I found WAS easier to program through the trigger. Tadao is similar to WAS only more features, and better.

        I like vikings a lot. I like how they feel, how they shoot, how consistent they are, everything about them.

              I own a 04 viking and a 04 featherlight excal, IMO i would get a excal shoots plenty fast but is sooooo smooth. I love my excal but the viking is a fantastic marker. My viking came stock with scm, mighty max and pandora. The viking shot faster and with less kick then my 05 speed. Again that was for me. Either is a fine choice and are solid performers.

                ya be sure to get a tool kit for it

                im getting one from someone here on ao but you can get one off of aka here



                you will need it to take the hole gun apart and to addjust your scm (lpr) properly without blowing the noid

                also be sure to get extream lube.



                and if you want to get a mitey max with is a volumizer you can get them from aka but they are not on the site now for some reson but you can call aka and order one or get one from here



                sroll down and it will be next to the v link and on the right side. they are 45 bucks and worth it. im as well getting one !!

                  No need to take the marker apart to adjust the SCM/LPR.

                  Screw the adapter with the guage into the appropriate chamber/tube on the rear of the marker; air it up, adjust--dry fire, re-adjust if necessary, degass and air it up again to double check the psi output. Fairly easy, just make sure to make SMALL increments when adjusting.

                  have fun-- AKA markers definitely are.

                    what barrel do you have on it? My viking was a lot quieter than my emag ever was w/ the same barrel. Even my wife noticed the differnce. My LPR is broken in though, and I have it at 72psi, and I am going to lower it to 68psi when I get my tank filled again.

                    Vikings are as quiet as trixes, but they should be quieter than mags. Check your LPR. And Jerzee is right, you just need to unscrew the left back cap, inser the gauge from tool kit, gas up the gun, turn it on, and adjust the LPR while dry firing it during the adjustment. If your LPR is too high, it could be a reason for it being louder. You can also turn the bolt around backwards when you do it, so that you save air and dont tick anyone in the house off.

                      If you have the chance to try both before purchasing try both Viking and Excalibur. Compare both with broken in regulators though. The marker/reg takes a good 10 cases or so to break in. They will shoot nicer in most aspects after that period.
                      Broken in Excals are just too nice not to try. Even if the price difference is still about $150/$200 from Viking to Excalibur.

                      /too hot to play lately, stuck fondling the Excal and building a mech Merlin. The Viking needs some love too.

                        Is this a good deal guys? I'm leaning towards either this or the Viking on PBN.

                          go to AKA's web site


                          under the annoucments section, sounds like their working on something new, thou it may be awhile till it comes out by the sound of it.

                          In the mean time buy a B2K4 with PDS, theres some on E-bay for cheap, till the new gun from AKA gets produced.

                            hell yes its a good deal. I would buy it if I had the money. That was the excal I was tallking about. Dont see them at that price for long or very often.
