Review:
The Sterling has the smoothest pump stroke of any pump there is. Period. To cock the gun takes little effort at all. I've seen trigger pulls that are harder then the pump action of this gun. I can just hold the gun up by the pump, and the gun will already pump 3/4 of the way. If I had to guess the pump stroke is only about 8 pounds.
The accuracy on this thing is awesome. I have one of the last 100 made so they are spyder threaded, but the stock barrel is dead on accurate. .689 bore makes it compatible with most of the paint out there. This thing is sick in accuracy.
It comes stock with hogue grips (very comfortable), a trigger shoe, bottomline, and its regulated! At first the velocity will go everwhere, but once the reg gets broken in, you can use CO2 in the winter and still get +-4 FPS over the chrono. It's unbelieveable.
The body is milled from a solid block of aluminum so you don't have to worry about low quality parts. The only thing plastic on this gun is the pump arm, and thats not gonna ever break.
This thing is also quite since it's regulated at a lowe pressure, its very accurate too.
Conclusion:
Overall, this is a sick paintball gun. The price is so cheap, only at 220. This thing is much better than the phantom. I'd even say the pump stroke is 3x smoother than the phantom. Thats the best quality of the Sterling, the pump stroke...
If your look for a pump, look no further. Go out there and get this pump now.
