| Review: |
Whats not to like about this gun, not much. It basically depends on what type of gun one likes, and the price one wants to spend.
Prefences:
If you would like an assult type riffle and you have $130 to spend this is a great gun to keep in mind. Its not that heavy if you use a remote line to a tank on your back. I would say however, that this gun is more directed at woodsball or casual games.
Firing:
It has a nice feel and has a high accuracy when firing medium distance (130' and under). If your not sure about the weight I suggest that you take a trip to a sporting good store and get a feel for it before you buy. I'm not sure what others mean when they say it's loud, it's not really that loud. If you dig gravety feed hoppers you should take a look at the one mentioned above, it works great. If you like automated hopper's I would suggest a cyclone (it's powered by the guns exaust).
Maintence:
This isn't exactly as hard as everyone makes it out to be. Although it is time consuming, the gun comes with a guide. So if your not the gun nut you wish you were, the manual will walk you through it.
Upgrades:
I can't find much out there, certainly not factory. Some suggest putting a rail on it yet I can't seem to justify voiding the warranty by drilling holes in the gun. I wouldn't mind a longer barrel but this one works just fine.
UPDATE:
Well here's the thing, the sight is too low on the gun, its hard to aim with a mask on. So now, I too, put a rail on it for a red dot scope. I highly recommed the a remote line though, not just for weight, but manuverability as well. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I would reccommed this gun, the strengths outweigh the weaknesses. I'm sure upgrades are coming if not factory some third party will come thru with them. I can't stress enough that one can read all day long through the these reviews but, you really need to get the feel for one at a sporting goods store to come up with your final decision.
