| Review: |
Ok i will point out everything i said for strengths and weaknesses and go into further detail.
Very fast- great trigger on this, 3way adjustable so anyone can set it to their preference. also, the trigger on these is a lot cooler looking than on other timmys
Very accurate- low pressure, run 500 psi into the reg, 225 into the lp, and then 50-75 into the gun. because of the timing with the bolt, shoots like its closed-bolt. few ball-breaks
Very consistent- because it is so low-pressure, it is very consistent. shoot within 5 fps on the chrono. however, you need an adjustable tank for this because the torpedo is only supposed to take in 500 psi
Sturdy gun- doesnt feel cheap in your hands, overall a quality piece from Bob Long
Nice looks- personally, i think this is one of the better looking timmys out there. but some disagree
hard to find- limited edition guns, so not everyone has one. i got mine from a friend for only $850 though. so its not impossible to find them
high price- i dunno everyone puts this. i wont complain. but its worth your money if you want a high-end gun
hard to clean- the milling is crazy on this- use q-tips and it makes it quite easier, everything comes off the gun though so its not too hard to clean if you get shot in a hard to clean area

| Conclusion: |
great gun, well it is used by a high-end professional team, so why expect less? if you want to get to the next level, get a timmy. doesnt matter if its a storm, shocktech, or 2k2. theyre all pretty much the same, with different milling. it really does help your play, my friend and i had won about 3 games on average per tournament. now we just won 7 last week with our new timmys. if you bunker someone. watch the trigger, dont want overshooting penalties. |
