I really wouldn't say compact...

Pretty much they are reliable, great service, fast (but not the fastest) and good looking

thats pretty much it

Angels are:

Quiet
Fast
Nice trigger pull
pretty
electirc
different fire modes
reliable
make you feel good

They are slightly overrated but for 1100 for gun/tank/extra on e-bay they are a amazing buy

an intimidator has all those things plus an anti chop eye...................so you can't go wrong with an intimidator too right? me and my friend were goin back and forth about what was better........We realized that they pretty much have the same features so we agreed that they both kick *****. haha

a timmy is nice but not as refined as an angel.... i say give bob long less than a couple of years, to bring a refined timmy, without all the daily maintenance you need to do.

with an angel, barely any maintenance, like once a year, have it cleaned and setup by an angel tech, 2-3 drops of oil in the asa every 4-10 cases of paint. no biggie.

the angel is so refined, that dead stock its good out of the box (minus all the grease thats in the angel, when its brand new), the competition finally caught up to the angel with performance, now could they only catch up with the refinement of an angel.

also can you say that the owner's manual, is the best owner's manual you have ever seen. its so detailed, and complete.

Well said, the others have the preformance, but not as much refinement.

i think no matter what i get, the intimidator or the angel probably timmy, i would put strong matenence (sp?) into it no matter what i heard. If I spend that much on a gun, im not lettin it get messed up in any way you know what i mean?

You can actually have performance problems if you "over maintain" an Angel. It was not designed to be oiled after every day of play and it's not supposed to be taken appart and re-assembeled every time you play. Low maintenance is a HUGE plus for the Angel.

I'm not sure exactly what that term means here. Can anyone help? Also a lot of people enjoy the multiple firing modes, but where can one use them, except in an outlaw game?

Angels are good because they have an awesome trigger, pretty small, low profile, easy clean bolt, LCD is cool, just looks plain awesome, very upgradeable, awesome technology, battery last 350,000 shots, and many more reasons, those are just a few

the trigger on an angel is simple amazing, well the trigger in the right hands, especially if you have had a trigger job done to your marker. Very little effort is required to unleash a crap load of paint on your opponent. very very reliable! I love it especially it's very easy to use when snap shooting, they are very comfortable markers! Accuracy is a little lacking, but it's a pretty damn good gun.

I am around angels all of the time. The quietest guns i have seen are nice cockers and all bushies. The only reason i have heard from my feild why angels are so good is that because they have little/no kick.

They also say that angels are probably the best guns but for twice the price you don't get twice the gun. I agree.

The feel of em in your hands, plain and simple. In my eyes ya wont find a gun that is more comfortable and is balanced as well, only reason i went from imp to angel.

They can't be bad when some of the worlds best players use them :).

Some of the worlds best players are giving them up for the next season. Some of Dynasty, Ground Zero, Aftershock. They will be shooting Intimidators next year. Angels are great markers. Just find what is right for you.

maybe that will finally give intimidator's the attention i think they deserve.

yea, just like bob long ironmen are using angels next year, because they got their arses handed to them at world cup.

dynasty is sponsored by cobra, jt, and wdp.... so they're stuck with angels for now. they use cobra mambas.....

aftershock uses autocockers... except 1 or 2 guys that uses angels.... sponsored by dye, meaning dye angels and autocockers next year....

ground zero will still be using angels.... it will be just adrenalized.
sponsored by adrenalin, redz, jt, wdp.

i heard bob wants to use the angel.... because it doesn't break down in tourny situation like his timmy.....

Dude, this is so funny. I like it, really. Bob's men wouldn't use angels. He makes a gun and he wants to sell them, so he uses them. I used one for awhile. I loved it. I actually like it better than my Angel. Ground Zero will be shooting Timmy's next year. Contract has been signed. Aftershock members (a few or more) will be using them next year. Dynasty was in negotiations with Bob about using the timmy. Nothing final has been put down yet. Most sponsorships are for one year. That would mean that at World cup, sponshorships are in negotiations for the next year. They might have a few people shooting them next year. Not sure on that yet though.
