The only thing so far that I find you might want to get would be a new barrel (though the stock one is better than most stock).
Strengths:
Cheaper than other egos
Modes
Light
Weaknesses:
What weaknesses?
Review:
After all the hype surrounding the egos I decided to check out the only one I'd consider buying and I wasn't disappointed-
First of all the E-tek is WAY cheaper than other egos and comes with more than most other guns in its price range. Numerous people have told me they want the sl-66 but it's 1900 freakin dollars! Talk about excessive! You could have two of these babies for only 1500. Also I know many are crazy about the pm's and the minions but let's face it: They only come in semi. The ego has all the modes you need.
Another thing is the internal setup: At first I was worried that it would be tough to work on (never used an ego before). However upon examination I found that it is much like the timmys, and anyone can work on a timmy.
The trigger you have to work with because at first it's kinda stiff. However even a lawn gnome can whip this thing around and send a tight rope down the tape. It is very compact and lite.
Conclusion:
I would go for it because it cost the same as other high end markers yet comes with all the modes plus some good stock features: feedneck, bottomline, etc.
