| Review: |
overall this was a fairly good gun for the price $180 for mine. unfortunately the crome on the foregrip chipped off making it not match with the rest of the gun. after some time it leaked Co2 from the fore grip. i replaced every o ring in the gun and still couldn't figure out what was happening. didn't bother to take it in to a pro shop so i don't know what caused it. sorry.
Its strengths are its quite light. it is a great gun for the low price (i dont know any other electros for under $200). seeing as it was a black dragun it fired relatively fast. i got it up to about 8 bps at the very max. i highly recomend the use of a new barrel seeing as stock is only eight inches. if you chopped a ball in this barrel you were done. very slow field stripping. when this happened i would just gave up. also this gun seemed to pinch alot of balls. another strong point was that when you unscrewed the co2 it didnt spray everywhere like on any other low end gun like a spyder/pirahna. incredibly short trigger pull. |

| Conclusion: |
Good for the price but you had to used expensive paint otherwise it would chop alot. Leaked air too much. |
