I have used the Piranha BL (non electric). I decided to upgrade to the electric version.
Marker Setup:
Piranha E-Force VTL, 14in 32 degrees Ice Cold Barrel, 4 stage ACI Sub Zero Expansion Chamber, Evil Delrin Bolt, Halo B, Empire Reloader, Palmer Pursuit Stabilizer, Dark Horizon Titanium Hammer, PMI/Pure Energy HPA 48/3000,14in Dye Ultralight
Recommended Upgrades:
Barrel
Perhaps a lighter hammer
A Delrin (lighter) bolt
Good hopper (electric gun)
HPA but co2 works great if thats all you got
Expansion chamber if use co2
Strengths:
Solid build
Electric
Reliable
Upgradable
Weaknesses:
Non really
Stock parts needing upgraded (not uncommon)
Review:
The Piranha E-Force VTL is a good solid gun by itself. If you are just starting out or have been going for a while in paintball, it is the gun for you. It (like most other spyder clones) are easily upgraded and being that it is electronic, you will have a gun that will last you for many years. The trigger has a decently short pull for being a plastic frame/trigger. It is no angel feel but it definitely gets the job done. With it fully loaded (paint and air) it is relatively light and reliable. With the stock parts it gets pretty good accuracy. You upgrade it to where you want its performance to be. Which is good since you have so many choices for parts. You can take it in the woods or out on a field and it will be reliable in both. It can take a pounding.
Conclusion:
I would recommend this product to newbies who are just starting out. Or to people who enjoy completely customizing their gun to their own specifications. This gun is reliable and it you take care of it, it will last you till.....well till you decide you need to spend more money on a new "better" gun to improve your game.
