Out of all of these markers, the pro-lite appears to be the only one that could withstand being run over by a truck and still come out shooting (you-tube video pending?!)

| Review: |
Did I mention that his marker is DURABLE?. - Through mud,sand, cold, wind, rain, ice, or snow, this gun is the friggin' AK-47 of vintage woodsballin'. Just keeps on blasting as fast as you can yank-off the 5 pound plus, single trigger pull! Give the rings a couple drops of lube per event and you'll be field-stripping her around once a YEAR on average. No, this gun will not likely win a tournament-level speedball game, but for screwing around with friends at the local woodsball field, this marker is a hard one to beat. Accuracy is pretty decent as well, especially with a slightly longer barrel. Took mine out to the nearest field last weekend and was plastering hoppers at 20+ yards no problem. Also be prepared to talk shop when sporting a pro-lite, as such a historical marker always brings some oohs and ahhs from the Tippmann lovers crowd! |

| Conclusion: |
Do NOT buy this marker...cause I want it! |
