I think the Eclipse Bushy looks nicer than the Sonic one. It is all your preference. The sonic is made from all nice Mac Dev products which is a plus though. Performance i dunno, go to www.obdo.net and post the same thing there im sure you'll get a good response there

i agree, i think the eclipse looks much better, but it doesn't have many performance upgrades. the sonic bushy has new bolt, valve, reg, lpr, trigger frame etc. . . i vote for the sonic for performance. but the eclipse still shoots good and looks better IMO.

Freak is always good. Im sure you know that it has different bore size inserts which is good. It also has 7" of acceleration time which is good for all bushys/defiants. 8" is recommended but a freak will do the job. Dye Boomy's are also good, but if u have the money to get the Eclipse or Sonic guns, spend the money on a Freak Jr., or even the full kit.

The eclipses have stock barrels. You might not be able to find one when christmas time comes around since they stopped making them. I think the sonic is a better deal anyways. Im one of the few people that dont like the looks of the eclipse. The sonic has simple looks but most of the excess weight is taken off.

Correction Venom.. They have the stock bolt in their bushys. The good ole' stock delrin bolt. Its the best, ya know ;) I really don't believe they are going to come out w/ a sonic bolt. The stock is so good, and they really dont have any motivation to make a bolt because everyone uses the stock bolt, and if they have blowback, they use goldies VAPOR bolt. It would make no sense to make a bolt and try to 'win' goldie's customers.

Stock bolt is fine. VAPOR is great if you have blowback. If you get a sonic bush the stock bolt will be great. NO BLOWBACK whatsoever (They match the bolts w/ the topbores to make a nice fit.)

Just did the toilet paper test after i played today. It didn't move :)
