BT combat- doesn't stand a chance against an etek 3, invert mini- barely lighter, but does not compare when it comes down to accuracy.

This gun is great out of the box, but if you really want to, you can get an emortal board and a violent series trigger. |

| Review: |
Overall, this gun is great out of the box, it has a poppet valve so if you over lube anything, it won't matter too much. The LED lights make a really nice touch. The gun is very accurate and very durable(not nearly as durable as a tippman, but it's a speedball gun. What do you expect?). The Etek 3 is very customizable in terms of firing speeds or modes and things of that sort. The Etek 3 does have a tad bit of a kick, but every gun has at least some kick. I would advise getting a fast hopper to keep up with this fast gun! I have mine set on ramping so once I shoot 5 or 6 balls per second it ramps up to 15 balls per second. But it is not limited to that speed in semi uncapped. I love my Etek 3 and I would highly advise it! |

| Conclusion: |
I would recommend this gun to someone who wants to stand out of the crowd and go big. This is a fantastic marker, and it works great out of the box. Though when you break it in it works a little better. An Lt is truly a good choice if your on a tight budget. But if you have the cash, get the all metal (AM) it works the same, it just is metal and is a bit more upgradable on the down side to the AM it is very slightly heavier. This is a great marker, once again I'd highly advise it. |
