I've got a question about the Tornado. There are some reviews on this site, and i've read them all. Everyone is giving the marker high marks, because it offers good value for little money. Some say the Tornado can compete against a tipmann model 98 and others say even a standard spyder is way better. So the question is: how god is this marker really?

I hope someone can help me out

well i like the tornado.....i call it the pg1 pro....... but any way to the point....... i got my tornado for Christmas......ive played with it about 6 times since then........

1st time: worked great, only prob was leak in the for grip.

2nd time: worked good, but then it started chopping paint real bad, a little rubber piece broke, and it was feeding 2 balls at once, i fixed it and it worked fine.

3rd time: worked good, but the volocity jumped up way to high but tuned it down. then it worked great
4th time: good

5th time: good

6th time: Worked great, i put a armson pro series barrel on it and cleaned everything, and fixed everything, and it is the most accurate gun where i play. 3 spyder sonix, 2 B.E. avengers, 2 B.E. raptors, and a Tippman 98 custom.


Im trying to sell my whole setup now.. to get a black dragun, need a little faster trigger pull. so just tell me if you might be interested.

the tornado is by far the worst gun ever i would rather buy two talons for less money.

I have used many guns, and here is my list of guns in order from best to worst.

+spyder shutter
+piranha sts g3
+B.E. avenger
+tippmann model 98 w/ flatline barrel
+brass eagle silver raptor
+pt extreme
+pgp2
+tippman pro carbine
+tornado

The reasons I don't really like this gun are
-horrible trigger pull
-very heavy not for rushers
-a n old model with no cool hi-tech things
-the venturi bolt is crap
-it looks horrible
-the accuracy is not good

The good things about this gun are

+it's only $50
+it works
+it's a paintball gun
+there are actually some upgrades
+it won't break too easy
