-low cost
-All aluminum
-no weld scars
-used br(ass) eagle paint WITHOUT breaks over 500+ shots
-nice weight and balance good for smacking people or aiming(if you're into aiming)
Weaknesses:
-had a gas leak down the barrel after i opened it up but that was my fault and it is fixed now.
-comes uncocked occasionally while firing, just recock
-the stopper in the feed falls out but it is easily fixed - remove o-ring from stopper put a small strip of tape behind it and replace o-ring and put it back in
-may be too heavy fully loaded for a total wimp
-company is out of business you're on your own with it
Conclusion:
This gun works good enough without upgrades, its worth its price definately, i prefer it to my griffin and my ancient spyder classic. I would NOT recomend it unless you like improvising repairs and upgrades as the company is out of business. if you dont mind a complete lack of tech support go ahead and get one. i give it a 8 because it is cheap and effective without any tinkering. would be 9 except no technical support.
