angels low demand?

[hipster]

I own an A1 as well as a dm and shockers ,and many , many more and the only reason most poeple at the fields i go to don't own one is because no one will tech them just about every field and store in the area has someone who know DM's ego's and smartparts guns but no one local touches angels you have to send them out

angel does not even have tech classes for stores in new england so no store wants to carry them or deal with them

its too bad because my a1 shoot great and is more dependable than my dm6, angel did a good job getting all the the old troubles out of their marker -now if they would just make it so classes for store and field people were as easy to find as the rest of the industry

As for teching, the angels follow the principle of every other stack tube design. They are so easy to work on.

Most players follow the "Pro Trends" with the sponsorships and such, not to mention SP and PE just spam their crap all over PBN so all the agg boys think its good stuff. WDP is more refined.

So the whole having to shim the LPR is a field friendly easy thing to do ?
I have owned 3 brand new Angels. 05 Speed. G7 as soon as they came out.
And an 06 Speed The Gat. All were paint shredders if a low pressure front came thru.
I complained to the store and they said that is to be expected in Florida.
I decided I didnt want any more markers that weather affected.
No more Angels for me.

I never had any issues with the A1 I got to barrow, it was a sweet as marker, I like it better than the 06 ego.

I play CX4 and there are no Angels other than my LED, most everything else is as stated before DM's and Ego's.
Same goes for MXL and CXBL, although there are a few more Shockers in these leagues.

I never was a big fan of the Angel since I think it had too much hype and too much lipstic and mascara to justify the price. However it is a big kick to the nuts when you realize that the orriginal AGG gun is no longer that popular, despite being a fantastic gun asside from price.

I've just gotten into angels, and I've noticed that there seem to be a lot more in the northeast than anywhere else(http://www.frappr.com/angelowners). I dont know why this is, but it seems to be the case.

Much like the mag, I prefer the design of the angel. I'm not a big fan of the spool type guns, don't know why...maybe its because when I see dm, I think ion...
I also like the fact that there's no internal lp hoses, and unnecessary technology doesn't hurt.

Hrm, could you point a link with more detail? I own a Pred II Angel, and I've been pretty happy with it. I have consistently heard finicky problems, first with Sensi, blowback?, using force-fed hoppers, shim issues, etc. and I could use a FAQ or something similar.

Thanks!

I own a predator angel as well. I play out of Nova Scotia and our weather goes from very cold to very hot including humid and fog days as well. I've experienced no problems with my angel.

Had an Angel, worked great, no problems at all, and was pretty damn fast...but HATED the feel of it, I think its one of the most uncomfy markers I have ever shot, but thats just me.

The g7 platform was pretty heavy compared to other stuff on the market at the same time, and didnt really offer any stand out performance features over any of the alternative markers of the time. People drifted away from angels during that time, now, the A1 really picked it up with its size and performance, and more and more people are starting to realize that and pick them up. I have owned many varities of angels, all worked well and shot great, but, they just wernt the marker for me. Its all personal preferace. Now, I am currently trying to pick up an A1 to have some fun with, but, I cant see that actually becomming my primary marker.
