    Ohhh Helllllya! got my 06 proto yesterday...pics

    It finally came. Got it from pbgear.com and they shipped next day. Great. came in 4 days.

    Last night opened the package to my suprise to see a tiny little PM6 Matrix box inside. And when I say tiny, I mean tiny. This box was about 12" long, by 14" side, if that. Prolly closer to 1 ft x 1 ft by about 2.5-3 inches in depth. I know for a fact my DM4 couldnt fit in that box. Lets put it that way.

    Anway, opened up my matrix box, and there it was. OMG, this thing is amazingly good looking. Very nice milling, great ano, love the color. Its a black to red fade. The red is a dark blood red...almost burgundy. Very pretty. Matches my backplate and red mamba stiffi nicely.

    The gun itself is very light. Id say it is about as light as an Ion I have w/ a stiffi, and sidewinder on it (which is lighter than stock btw). Very light compared to the other trixes Ive held and owned.

    So, I turned it on, aired it up and dry fired it some. Great. Shoots like a trix, but a lot more comfortable. It feels real nice in my hands. Probably the most comfortable gun Ive held to this date.

    w/o hesitation, I slapped my CP trigger in it.

    I am also happy cause my Cheetah board came yesterday as well. Its like christmas in november.

    Anyway, I have more pics I havent uploaded yet, but here is one comparing it to the DM4 that I have (eh ehm for sale)

    Pics.
    EDIT: more pics

                  never likes the DMs or PMs, but the 06 Protos are gorgeous...

                  GORGEOUS, I SAY!

                        lucky you. I dont work at or own a field or get wholesale. I dont really care what you can get them for. They are worth the money IMO.

                          well yak, ive decided to be constructive, rather than destructive. And 2 weeks without internet can take a toll on your meanside

                          My personal thoughts on the new PM6, Smaller, I like the fact that its not a huge impulse looking thing anymore and the milling isnt too bad this time around.
                          I do like the fact that you are true to the AKA factors. Sidewinders are freaking awesome.

                          Yak, if its what you like, great choice

                            I'd wish they'd get rid of the composite eye covers, it gives a cheap look to protos. Also, you say it feels better, but minus the weight the frame/asa of the PM6 look just like the dm4. Whatever though, it might be the balance thing, which would be about the same as a PM5, but once again, whatever. I'm just having a hard time seeing where this thing feels so much better than everything else..

                            Looks nice though. I'm wanting to see a PM6 with the UL frame.
