The first and last word in scenario/milsim paintball. Nothing is nearly as good. This gun is select fire via the flip of a switch. It holds 65 round forward loaders and 25 round clips. That means you can have 85 rounds on the gun at one time and carry 65 round clips with you. The hopper clip allows you to put a hopper on it but it is not neccesary except it extreme conditions. This gun is the most accurate paintball gun available period. I own two Autocockers, a Shocker a Tippmann 98/flatline, several others and have shot or played games with just about every other gun on the market, including Angels. None of them can compete. It is true that paint is the primary factor in determining accuracy and that no paintball gun will be accurate without very good paint, but this gun is as accurate as can be with minimal defference to paint. You can literally place ball upon ball right on top of one another from 20 yards. It's remarkable. The sound is great, the weight is amazing, it is lighter than any other gun on the market, and the sights are incredibly accurate. The service is also very good. Not the speediest but not bad. And they are very reasonable. I cannot say enough good things about this gun. It is worth EVERY PENNY.
Weaknesses:
well I didn't mean to go on so long about the good aspects luckily there isn't much that's bad. This is not a gun for the tinkerer. It is a very complex system that is reliable once set up and maintained well. Be advised, the slightest bit of new gun curiosity can change your experience from heaven to hell. There is nothing more frustrating than getting goo from this gun after you've seen what it's capable of. It's usually set up correctly from the factory just READ THE DIRECTIONS oil often and enjoy. If you open it just remember I told you so.
Conclusion:
If you like to be in the woods, this is the gun for you. Sniper, stalker, kamakazi, whatever this gun is great. I can't wait to see what they ome up with next.
