    E*TEK Ego?

    Just got an email from Planet Eclipse with this



    Anyone know anything about this? Is it going to be a lower cost Ego...like the Angel Speed series?

    It's just a cheaper ego. Less cooler milling and a cheesier frame.

          I'm hoping the price difference is that of the DM6 and PM6.

          Hoping.

              Good god, is this what paintball has come to? The same 3 or 4 companies rehashing the same ideas over and over again?

                But yeah... I guess whatever sells, right?

                Someone in the loop on Pbn confirmed that it is going to compete with the PM6

                  And the Cyborg owners are screaming "we have you both beat!"
                  ...macdev needs some better publicity haha.

                  In regard to the Ego though it will be nice for eclipse to have a less expensive marker compared to the stock as opposed to the price only going up with other egos. More in the planet E family

                    No, you're wrong.

                    They're about as loud as a .44 magnum, with the kick to match.

                    they get about 500 rnds off of a 68/45.

                      A stripped down version of the Ego could sell pretty well...How many people do you know that want an ego without knowing what an ego really does better than a different marker?


                      It's probably the most aptly named piece of equipment I have ever laid eyes on.

                        Ahh my bad on that, Ive heard they are extremely efficient from every 04/06 owner I have encountered and after shooting one the kick is about the same as a matrix if not less. They aren't that loud with a quiet barrel on them too. Maybe its just how they are tuned unless I have been misled by cyborg owners...

                              Stripped down paintball marker?

                              These don't have AC, power windows, etc. What are you going to strip off it? Some milling?
