| Review: |
Got this gun for $1075 CAN. Right out of the box... sweetest gun I've ever held. It's so light, it's so small, it felt like a toy, all by itself. Put a rail and ASA on, slapped on everything else, hit 17 on the trigger, which is very light, and fell in love over the ramp modes. you max out your hopper no problem if you've got fairly decent fingers. 3 shot burst is much faster than ramp mode, as you get 3 shots as fast as the hopper feeds every time you pull the trigger, after the first semi auto pull.
Very efficient, about 1800 shots from a 70/45. Everybody wants to see it, and wants you on their team. Very accurate with a good barrel kit. After over a dozen cases, haven't broken a single ball, except for some crap paint that failed a 1 foot drop test. broke 4 out of 500 paintballs, just ripping on it. Mind you, they're barrel breaks, there hasn't been a single chop... the eyes work flawlessly.
The gun can use less cycling pressure than other timmies, making it quieter and better on gas, while the lighter bolt and ram reduce the kick substantially. It kicks less than a shocker, and much less than all other styles of timmies. You hardly have to hold it down when you max your loader.
The only weakness (if you can call it a weakness) is that it's harder to take apart than the older styles of timmy. It's complicated to explain, but you'll see what I mean when you get one. |

| Conclusion: |
You want the best timmy out there? Get this gun... it is one of the pinnacles of sleek, sexy performance. It gets a 10. I guess the infamous gets a 10 too.... If you buy it, you won't regret it at all. |
