Clamping feed neck (mabey its only on my gun, not sure),

Review:
This is a really cool gun. The Ace (Anti-chop-eye) works really good and it looks really cool. when i played with it it is really accurate and easy to pull the trigger. the only thing i still dont completely recomend is using co2 with it all the time. it may mess up the expansion chamber if u go really trigger happy (problem i have with my gun, when i put co2 into my gun and went trigger happy it leaked through the gauge) but other then that it is sweet. the only big weakness i had with mine was the clamping feed neck because mine woudlnt completely hold the hopper letting it fall loose and off the gun but mabey only some guns have that problem. you will rip with this thing on the field. you will ripp on the field with this sexy thing
Conclusion:
its a really cool gun and i recomend it only it does have a few weaknesses which I am not completely happy bout. Still a great gun. I recomend getting it

this evo has a clamping feedneck, thats about the only difference, the clamping feed neck aint great. kwag, a wrench dont work too good man, it scratches the neck and is hard to tighten

pleas help
It does not have a full auto mode, It is just semi- automatic
i dont know what you mean man All bolts scratch its normal wear and tear and a little scratch on the bolt isnt noticable and it doesnt have any effect on the performance
alright well this guy told me that if you put a spare o ring between the feed neck and the hopper it wont move. he was right, i put in the o ring, tightened it a little and it never moved. try it

You could use one of those rubber grip wrenches on it. PMI isn't bad, my EVO performed great until I did the stupid and ran CO2 through it. No biggy, sent it in and had it fixed and back to me in a week. Then I did the stupid again and played in the rain. The electronics shorted out. Like what happens on any marker with a circuit board from tippmann A-5 E-grip to Dye DM5. I'll probably just get the T-board and it'll be fine. Yah, I'm an idiot but I was young and I wanted to play paintball, it just happened to start raining when I got to the field. That's why I revived my tippy until I can get the board.
