Since I bought this marker a little more than a month ago I have had nothing but problems with it. I was incredibly excited by the idea that after years of waiting for a fully self-contained marker, one would be designed exactly as I wanted it to. Then it arrived. It looked awesome it felt great, and the valve that they sent me to fill the flexi-air system did not work. I attempted to play with the bottle screwed directly into the back of the marker, but it started chopping balls (good, hard woodsballs (Marballizers) not cheap paint), I tried adjusting the velocity and different paint but the marker still won't function as it should. Every time I try and play with it I spend the majority of my time trying to get the marker to work instead of actually getting to play. It is a pain to clean and if you break the first or second ball, your whole magazine is shot unless you bust out a squeegee in the middle of the game and clean your barrel (and then you accuracy is still compromised).
Conclusion:
Buy a Tippmann or other brand and customize it how you want, it will save you time and money in the long run.
quote:Originally posted by Deadbolt How do you chop paint with a pump.
Pump to fast so that the ball gets chopped leaving the hopper/tube to go to the barrel.
Doing this and blaming it on the marker would make you an idiot.
Although I doubt his problem is not chopping but simply balls breaking in the barrel a more.... ummh plausible problem for a pump.
"I was incredibly excited by the idea that after years of waiting for a fully self-contained marker" That would be pretty much any stockclass pump you did not have to wait. PGP's have been around as long as paintball.
But yeah anyways I have noticed that R.A.P. does not really make the highest qualitly products so the fact that he has a problem with his I am not suprised.(Flame away Sure they look nice but every time I look thought he reviews for there products about half of the reviews complain about flawed or down right broken equipment. Also look at the demo videos on there site in one there gun is "less" accurate then a tippmann with a flatline and its there video! and in another they arent even sure how to load/use the grenade laucher they are trying to sell you)
