| Review: |
I'm on my 3rd shell in 18 months!!
The feedneck keeps breaking right where it tightens to the marker's feedneck. :(
The battery door often opens during play causing jams.
The magnetic lid, while indeed strong, still can get popped open during vigorous play, spilling paintballs everywhere.
All that being said, when this product is actually working I love it much better than a non-motorized VL200. It is just buggy. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I give this a luke-warm buy recommendation. Be gentle with the feedneck and you should be alright. |
