Alien PB

[7Infamous7]

Has anyone on here hear/had any experience or any pro and cons about alien markers? Any anyone reckon their worth it? $595 for a marker that can keep up with timmys, shockers etc (on pbnation )

Ive seen one before, but thats all. I actually am curious about them too. I asked the owner of it , if he likes it, and he said "its alright." Then i asked him if he chopps, and he said "No, never."

Im guessing its a decent gun.. but for ~$600.. I would rather get a gun that more people know about.

its all hype, stick with something you can get parts for , and the company wont eb outta biz a year later

[7Infamous7]

How do you know there gonna be out of buisness a year later? Just cos there a new company? Not meaning to sound rude at all but can we please only have replies from people who have had experience with these markers

cheers

Never shot an alien, although i hear they are pretty nice. If i were you i would look into an 05 borg. paintball kingdom still have them for $650. I know for a fact that they can keep up with anything out and surpass most.

i wont buy one of their markers, the owner of the company, Jack Rice, is full of hype and apparently never took highschool physics.

He was once quoted saying that the dm series wasnt as accurate as the older matrix series, because the air has to take more turns before it gets to the ball.

not to mention, he is using was boards. So baisically, you have the two biggest hype mongers in the industry, in one marker.

Also, do you want something built overseas? because thats where jack manufacturers his products.

i second that.

i bought an older borg as a backup, while i wait for my dm6 and i'm debating even buying the dm6. (coming from dm4's and vikings)

I tested the Alien Interceptor at 04 San Diego NPPL and I ripped off a halo into the firing area but the last couple balls chopped. The owner of the comapny proceeded to say, "F***! Your not supposed to shoot it like that!" I walked the trigger at about 12 bps and the gun chopped... Clearly I was the problem...

correct me if im wrong, but im pretty sure alien is older than a year....... its in greg hastings pb(the first one)...... and i remember reading about one alien that had the feedneck all the way at the back of it, and it looked deformed

Yeah, Alien PB has been around for awhile, the marker with the feedneck all the way at the back was actually their first marker, called the Alien.

And rkjunior303, I say you just slap a Tadao board in your 'borg and leave it at that

My local store has one, pretty nice marker, I've been debating myself if I should pick it up. They shoot real nice, the basic matinece of the gun is very similar to timmy's but easier IMO. I'm not a fan of WAS but TAG makes a replacment board for it, I haven;t seen it personally but I my teamate used to play with a guy who jhad the TAG board and supposedly it's very nice.

and plus the Hurricanes will be have PL Interceptors this year though I've heard rumors the Hurra gun may be a whole new marker.

[minimag03]

It doesn't matter about the hype they are putting out. The marker still shoots very nice either way. I don't seem Alien going anywhere for awhile, but I don't think they will ever grow into a large company.
