Strength
- The bolt literally flys, very nice construction.... Stupid friend put batteries in his 500ct paintball bag and i dumped the bag into my loader....the battery went into my gun and the bolt SLAMMED Into it without a scratch or dent or anything....Very solid construction
Weakness
- Thing that dissappointed me was this things noise level. When your next to the gun the thing sounds a little louder then the STOCK bolt....that kinda bothered me... apparently though my friends say that it is quiter then the stock bolt if you stand like 5 ft away.... i suppose it is possible... this bolt with the venturi construction will have a higher velocity out of the bolt but with the highervelocity also causes less pressure needed to shove the ball forward becuase the air is moving faster through the holes.... Saves on Air a little and with thought it is concieveably a little quiter since not so much air is going through the gun at once. Try it... write me back, id like to see what other people think of its loudness.
Conclusion:
Very nice...shocktech did a great job....Little overpriced but then again if this thing can take a battery without a scratch maybe it was worth it : ).
