| Conclusion: |
This is a great new addition to the world of pumps. The dual-pump rods make for an extremely smooth and easy pump stroke. Combined with having a stock class adapter that can be mounted, this seems to soon be a nice hit. Very accurate, stock barrel is actually pretty nice, overall light weight and nicely balanced.
I would suggest getting some epoxy and adding a piece of cut out thin rubber or cloth to place between the back block and the body. Or else you'll have a metal [i]clack[/i] every time you pump. Nothing major and not that loud, but after time it could get to be an annoyance (like JT goggle fans, they work good but annoy you).
One of the best things though is that it's offered now through Hans at Siege Craft Paintball. Also the distributer of phantoms and miscelaneous items.
Overall this is a very good marker. It's good on efficiency tank wise, 12-gram wise it's decent. About 20 good shots off of one. Has a good feel, consistent, quality built. If you are interested in getting a new pump, take this one into consideration. |
