Review:
Great new design, very cool and very good for a tippmann. However, same bolt design as a 98 or A-5. Same kick back as the others if not worse. Seriously at the 300 plus level players expect more. It is the coolest and most customizable tippmann ever, but whats the point of spending that much money if the marker shoots as well as the 100--98?? The A-5 was awesome when it comes to inivations in markers in mil-sim, however the x-7 doesn't grow or build on it very well. Save your money. Buy an A-5 instead, unless you have the money to blow and make a pretty x-7 and don't worry about performance. Its sad when it takes over a hour to maintenance the silly thing.
Conclusion:
Don't buy!! Get a 98 or A-5 and upgrade for the money. Tippmann seriously needs a simple bolt out the back design for simple clean up.
