tipman 98- lots of recoil and noise
spyder pilot acs- (only played with my friends)
Marker Setup:
stock xe,
18 bps viewloader hopper
48ci/3000psi tank
4 pod ball hauler
Recommended Upgrades:
FEEDNECK AND ON/OFF BUTTON!!!!!
look into a better grip
after a while you might want to upgrade the trigger
Strengths:
fast, quiet, good bps, doesnt eat up battery life, BOB
Weaknesses:
stock grips a little bulky. feedneck is HORRIBLE. cant change firing modes without opening grip.
Review:
this gun is GREAT for beginners. it has so many upgrades that you can u can upgrade it to be just about anything. the first thing i recommend upgrading is the feedneck. the hopper is so hard to get on and off that i snap an o-ring every time i try to pull it off. second thing i reccomend is the on/off button. IT ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!! the marker runs on 9 volt batteries which i thought was great. also the grip is bulky so i find it harder to walk the trigger. another key weakness is that you cant change firing modes without opening the grip!! i thought this was a MAJOR problem with this marker. its got a good bps (17) so you dont need a high profile hopper. this is a decent stock marker. but once u upgrade the right things it becomes a great paintball marker.
Conclusion:
i would only suggest this marker to ballers who are going to spend A LOT of money on upgrades and going to keep it long term. or people looking for a decent electro marker that is willing to play with ok stock parts. o yeah. i almost forgot. the bolt out back design. this is basically the reason why i got this gun and not the spyder pilot acs. it is so easy to clean. it literally takes 30 seconds to take it apart, lube/clean it, and put it back together.
