Review:
The Pilot ACS is a great choice of gun for the price. For 180 it comes with alot of features.
The trigger frame is an awesome piece of equipment. The tigger pull is very easy to change, you can change the pull externally with an included allen wrench. The trigger is very easy to walk. The multiple firing modes on the C.A.M.D.(colour access mode display) 2.0 tigger frame are definitely an asset. You can change the ROF easily from 6bps to 13bps on 3 burst, 6 burst and full auto.
The ACS bolt basically eliminates chop. It works just as a high end marker would with eyes.
The Pilot ACS is very upgradable. Therefore if you want to make more improvements in the future, you can easily.
Overall the gun is great, good looking gun It is definitely worth the $180 and is an awesome investment.
There is a few videos we put on www.putfile.com , just search for pilot ACS
Conclusion:
I would recommend with gun to anyone that enjoys paintball, but may not have the money for the high end electronic pneumatic markers.
