Im debating which gun im gunna get and i HAVE TO order it soon. the ext 2k4 and the torid x. i will be playing mainly speed ball f.y.i. Im leaning towards the torid x becuase it has more of the features i want stock. the only thing that the piranha has better is a lighter stock trigger pull and the bolt. Other wise imo the torid X has the ext beat out. Well any opinions thoughts or comments u have i would really apreciate. also i would like to know exatly how many grams is the pull on the torid, i think the ext is 110 thnx!

sounds good :)
obtw...you know that data port that they have in them for software upgrades? did you know that you can get them programmed to scroll stuff like your name across the lcd when you boot the gun up?

the only worry i have about the torid x is that the trigger pull is gunna be too heavey and i dont plan on upgrading anything besides the bolt. ive heard that u can adjust the trigger to make it lighter is this true? and if so how light can u make it?

Oh believe me, the trigger pull is not too heavy! The pull on the E-force is probably lighter, but has alot of before and after travel. I had a Piranha, but sold it to buy a Torid X, never been happier. And the trigger can be adjusted to make is shorter, but I dont see the need to make is much lighter.

Also, I play back, so need a gun that rather fast, and the Torid X fits that pretty well.

like warden said, they are adjustable for travel, but not for the weight of the pull.
shortening the travel will definitely help your speed some.

ok, so as to put your worries about the weight to rest..... press down on your spacebar. on my keyboard, the factory switch in my tes was about HALF the amount of pressure to push the spacebar. that was a 250g switch, that came in it factory. Its pretty much just like clicking your mouse.

theres a hole there, that has the adjustment screw for the forward travel. thats how you adjust the travel on hte stock trigger. I just wish that hey had a rearward travel adjustment too :(

Hey thanks, now I have it in a sweet position, and I can walk my trigger like 1bps faster.
So is there anything else that can make it faster or anything?

well ive pretty much ruled out the ext and i all but decided on the torid x but i went to a local pb store today and a guy got a wrath and really like it. i was wonder if it would be worth my while to spend the extra 50 bucks and get the wrath (gun is 180 bolt is at least 30). what i don't like about the wrath though is that on the front handle there is a gauge right in the way of where i would hold it and in the same spot on the other side is the 90 degree elbow. that handle is crucile for me when i walk the trigger. i also don't like that it doesnt' have a drop forward. i do like that it has a lighter trigger though.

not a problem, glad to help out :)

I havent had a chance to shoot a wrath or even check one out yet. I kinda like them, but tooling around in the diablo forums, I see peeps posting with problems from them.
