| Review: |
I saw this gun on a website and it looked kinda cool... do not buy a gun only on looks...i won't make the same mistake twice. if you are looking for a good cheap beginner gun, go for a spyder compact. its even cheaper that this p.o.s. and it works a helluva lot better that the CORE. thi gun makes wallmart guns look like autocockers. |
|
| Conclusion: |
NEVER EVER>>>EVER<EVER BUY THIS GUN it will just break on you like it did for me...get a spyder and go for a brand you know. not a cheap core im only guving ths gun a two because somne brass eagle pumps shoot a little slower...but not by much. u wanna know what else is really sad...i had to redo this review because i had too many words for the weaknesses?<> |

| Review: |
I love my gun every body says it stinks and stuff online but maybe the place thay got it from messed it up or maybe thay messed it up like a retard i love my gun it is really cool i mean the people that dont like this gun should just go get some more money and buy an angle i mean all guns usually need to be cleaned right after you play and stuff and some moron didnt think to treat his gun right like freikn threw it on the ground and broke it the one i got is awsome |
|
| Conclusion: |
if you dont like your gun go trade it in and buy a freikn angle or this what ever you want to do with your money this is a awsome gun i love mine so thats it |

|
|
| Strengths: |
This is a great gun for begginers and maybe amatuer recreational players. THIS GUN HAS NEVER BROKEN ON ME. Every time i go to play i have never had to switch guns or take time to fix it. Everybody else says the broke alotta paint, in the 7 er so months i have owned mine i think i have broken like 8 balls. Cheap great price for what you getting. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
It doesnt not have the power or accuracy of more expensive guns, trigger frame is crap but still works fine. |
|
| Conclusion: |
great gun for people not serious about playing in tournaments. i recommend it! |

I've used a tippman 98 custom, a spyder, and also some crappy pump one time. |
|
| Marker Setup: |
CORE TigerSharc w/ 20 oz co2 |
|
Recommended
Upgrades: |
New barrel... yeah
Front grip. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Pretty cool colors, and looks good overall
It was cheap-- Setup was $140
Shoots far enough and accurate enough. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
It is pretty loud.
It has a plastic trigger, trigger frame, and grip.
...and I think CORE should have a website, heh. |
|
| Conclusion: |
It is a perfectly good gun. It performs great, and looks as good as some much more expensive guns. A lot of people buy these really expensive guns and it is so unneccessary. Great gun, especially if you are pretty new at it. Yet, the plastic trigger and grips and all makes me a bit nervous. At least the rest of the gun is metal. |

Recommended
Upgrades: |
new barrel, stock one is way too large, unless you are using bad paint like brass eagle paint. also get a regulator or expansion chamber so you dont have too many hot shots |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
double finger trigger
not too load with a new barrel
low pressure cell comes stock |
|
| Weaknesses: |
trigger is plastic
can be a little loud for comfort |
|
| Review: |
this gun is good for beginners or as a back up gun for regular players. the gun comes with a low pressure cell and a double finger trigger stock so that is a plus. it also comes with a 1500 PSI guage so u know what you are running at. the trigger is plastic so it could break easily but i havent had any problems with it and dont think i will any time soon. also i dont know if someone had a bad gun or something but they said that it would break alot of balls, i have shot about 600-700 balls and havent had a single break. although they might have been shooting some brass eagle paint or something, i have only used Diablo Dusk paintballs with this gun and they work fantastic. Diablo makes good paint, breaks on the people, not in your gun. |
|
| Conclusion: |
for the money this gun is a real good deal, i got mine off ebay with the reg and expansion chamber and the tank for only $140, hopefully you can get a great deal like this. buy this gun if just starting or need a low maintenance back up gun. |

| Review: |
well this gun, i only used it a week and it gave me problems..the first time i took it to the field it wasnt working after a while...for some reason my semi-auto wouldnt work, it would only shoot one ball and it wouldnt auto recock, then when it DID shoot a ball it would only go a few feet....i had Co2, so i changed tanks with a friend, and my gun worked...i dont know y....then after a while, i changed tanks back, and my gun still worked? (please explain that to me) so this happened again later on in the day, but i was unsucessful in getting it to work...then i got home and used my tank, and my gun worked (seems to have a habit of this) so then, like 4 days later, i was disassembling my gun (it was fun) and the threading from the gun to the barrel got all messed up, so the barrel was stuck half way in! i had to send it out to the place i got it (online) to get it fixed, or a replacement...plus, the silver in the blaring sun isnt a great thing....gives away ur position hehe, maybe my gun was a defect? |
|
| Conclusion: |
decent gun if u want to save money, be prepared for problems, looks cool (someone thought it cost 700 bucks! lol..if they only knew) |
