I just bought an '04 BKO from pbgear.A week later on ICD's website they have a new style BKO, I was wondering if its just new looks or if there are any internal changes.(And is there a return policy for pbgear.com? I might wanna get these new looks)

There's about 10 threads on the new bko's. They are NOT out yet and won't be until Febuary(which means nothing). It has a little different setup then the older 2k3 bko's, milling, new hpr, lpr, nothing too big but the milling does stand out. If you want a 2k4 bko, the milling and all, you will have to wait, and wait a long time most likely.

Im not positive, but from what ive heard the main differences are the milling, and the milled ones (the one in the pic) have worse hpr's then the non-milled ones.

Yeah if you have the first version of the 2K4 BKO I would keep it , unless your all for looks.

it isn't nesscary a worse HPR it just isn't as good ast the 2k4 ones that are out. The cool milled 2004 BKO HPR are like the regs of the 2K3 regs

Yes well the slight problem is just that pretty much every place only has blue and black left in stock.
Theres one place I know that still has silver, but I refuse to reveal my sources!!!

Blue is the best color in the world... Well besides Orange but, the Orange that ICD sells I don't like.

But have you seen the BKO 2k4, in blue? its sort of Sh*tty looking, mainly because there's no sweet milling, but as Impya has shown us, you can make a silver BKO into a very nice looking thing, It's just the way the silver conrasts with the black on the gun..

Auctuly I like the Blue BKO but, the Silver does look nice.

i'm prob gonna get red!!!
there's a reason red cars have higher insurance rates so in my mind the red color will easly get me like 2-3 bps faster!!!
(insert sarcasm here!!!)

Yes but won't the red also cost $50 more if you think like that....
Personally I like the red enough, but all the ICD colors would look so much better dusted, just picture it, ahh beautiful..
That should be their upgrades for 2005...Dusted Colors

That should be their upgrades for 2005...Dusted Colors Red doesn't cost $50 more and I'll take Gloss finish over Matt finish any day of the week.

I said "If you think like that, then it will cost $50, referring to how red cars insurance is higher....
Plus, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to make both matte and glossy finishes

well imo i would wait a lil bit longer and save up for the b2k4 or u could try and fin a site that still has the b2k3 in stock 4 a cheap price if u think about it that way thers not really a big price difference
gomster
01-28-2004, 02:41 PM
Because some people don't have another $200 to shell out.

no it's not... check them out at paintballgear... i saw them they were $359 for a BKO and like $629 for a B2K 04 w/PDS. I guess it might be that patent deal... but $150 price raise?

not really i know more people with b2k's then bko's or that had a bko sold it to move onto a b2k.

The BKO's now have the same LPR setup as the b2k's (instead of right next to the trigger frame) Also have higher flowing HPR and LPR, also soon they will have a much more complicated milling pattern. The price increase has to do with these new features as well, the price will not drop, and if so maybe 10-15 bux nothing to major. The BKO extreme is just a more complicated Milling, it also wont have as high flowing HPR or LPR as the stock BKO's, and cause of that is only 15 bux more from what ive seen.
