Review:
I just bought one of these because I love Sterlings, and thought that this one was beatiful.
It arrived in a rather fancy looking box..I don't know why, I mean, this gun isn't for children who love shelf appeal....Silly to waste money developing a pretty box.
Well, I cracked it open, and started foaming at the mouth. I sat there for at least 5 minutes staring at the beautifully done anodization, and the sleek look.
After I was done making a salivary mess, I took it out of the box, threw on the feed tube and the twelvie changer in a VSC setup, grabbed some paint, and my 3.5er, and headed into the yard.
From the first pump, I was in love. It was smooth, not quite as nice as a broken in Phantom, but smooth. The stroke was fairly light, being a Sterling. I shot off about 200 paintballs, draining my 3.5er. Efficiency is much like a Phantom.
Recently, I took it out to play speedball with. It performed flawlessly, and did it in style. I really do like the looks of this gun. I had no issues of reliability, pinching, or leaks. I have only put about 6 hours of playing into this gun, and can not completely accurately review it, I will update this review when I get some more use on it,
Conclusion:
While pricey, it is a quality Sterling, and provides a chance for us Sterling lovers to get in on the Stock Class fun. 9 because it is a good $100 more than the Phantom, and doesn't perform a whole lot better.
