I LOVE my Bushy...

out of the box it was ready to fire with no problems whatsoever. no adjusting necessary...

plus if you get a new valve, Zenitram hoseless rock, and a vapor bolt you will be able to lower pressure so that kick is barely even noticeable...

But to make it LP you have to upgrade it....more money. The Omen is alot cheaper then the bushy, and performas stock alot better. In the long run the Omen will be a better investment. The bushy is good but you must get PDS, plus to make it on par with the omen in performance you must get ALOT of upgrades...regs, valves, barrels....

^WTF are you talking about?

the Bushy is already LOW pressure... it runs at around 200 psi to the bolt and around 90 psi for the ram...

the Omen isnt even considered low pressure because it runs around 300 psi... it is psuedo low pressure...

the Bushy needs NOTHING out of the box to compete with an omen... especially if you get PDS, which will still allow you to use force feed loaders whereas the Omen will NOT.

the only reason one would get a new valve for a Bushy is if they want to increase efficiency and make it even LOWER pressure.

not to mention the fact that the Bushy is faster stock and has more upgrades available so far...

mine shoots +/- 5 fps STOCK, which isnt great but is excellent for a totally STOCK gun and i can outrun my eVLution II without and chopping, shootdown, etc.

once i get the new shootpaint.com MAC RAM then i will never chop, period. plus ill be able to lower my pressure even further and reduce kick even more.

the omen runs +/- 1 fps stock.

and you can use force fed loaders on an omen.

and your whole PDS argument is invalid anyways, PDS is an upgrade; it costs more money. which is what spartan said in the firstplace.

i dont care if the Omen runs +/- 1 FPS...

that wasnt the point of my post...

he was talking as if the Bushy isnt even low pressure and that the Omen is...

whereas the Bushy is truely low pressure and the Omen can hardly even be considered low pressure...

The Omen runs at 200 psi, maybe even 180 if the maximun velocity is sweet spotted right. ( do not attepmt)

The Omen gets a 2 flux not 1.

The Omen is LP out of the Box and the BKO can be made to be with upgrades.

The Only "force" feed loadern the Omen can use is a Egg2 or a egg2 with z board.

spartan you can use a halo, but you have to adjust the tension. and i was playing with my friends stock omen and it got +/- 1 at the chrono.

Which completely defeats the purpose of having a Halo B, as changing the tension of it slows it down.

people are too stuck on speed. the omen can potentially shoot 25 bps which is more than a loader can feed.
