Guys, I need your help. For my next marker I'm seriously considering the Dragun. However I have a dilemma:

Many of the places I've gone, I cannot find a decent review on the dang gun!

So I figured I'd just start posting on forums, get the news from the people that use the gun itself. So please tell me EVERYTHING you all have experienced with the gun, good and bad. I need to know these thing so I can decide on whether or not I want to buy the marker. Also, if any of you live around Ann Arborish and have the Black Dragun, wouldja consider letting me come by and firing it? I like to try guns before I buy them..

Thanks a lot,

Mike

I just ordered an M3 this weekend to test it out. It sounds like a great deal, and to me, it's the best looking Dragun of the bunch. I'll tell you what I know about it:

-The base model comes with an LED grip and only shoots semi-auto
-The full function model has an LED, and multiple firing modes
-The Sniper has and LCD readout and seems to be a multi-mode marker as well (though I need to find out for sure).

Also, the M3 Draguns seem to have a nicer barrel than the standard Black Draguns. Other than that, they are basically the same gun, but with the regulator in the foregrip and not as the ASA. If the gun tests well, I'll be filming it for our website. It's not as good as firing it in person, but at least it'll give you a better idea than a still photo. We plan on retailing the M3 Semi for $239 and the Full Function in the $280 range. After I find out more on the Sniper, I'll let you know what they'll go for.

Let me know if these are competitive prices. I can't research all the different stores, so I rely on you guys to let me know.

Hope this helps.

Yes, from what I hear, they are a great value. The M3 is virtually the same as the standard Black Dragun, and it is a quality gun. I will let you know if I find any significant downsides as soon as I test it. I will have video edited and online ASAP.

Later

OK heres the thing, I love Draguns, hell I own one, but the new ones are close to 300 and I also love cockers and 300 will get u a stock cocker. But with a cocker u cant play agianst the high end electros such as , angels, timmys, shockers, like I do. So what do u guys think? I cant decide cocker can be upgraded to heaven and back, but a dragun has 13bps with a 1mm trig pull out of the box wiht LCD screen with Auto, Muliti mode, semi, and off. I geting split up man and my crotch hurts, LMAO,

Ann Arbor, eh? That's about 2 hours from me. I personally own an E-1 and I love the thing. I bought it for a gun to use while saving for an impulse or a cocker. I'd have to say buy the gun and later, when you have more money, get a cocker or impulse. It will make a great gun for now and a great backup for later.
