| Review: |
Overall this gun is pretty good. One of the players for my team has one and he says that the gun is really fast and when he but my boomstick on it shot so accurate. i would recommend you get a boomstick or something in that line of products. He'll be getting an e-blade this summer. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If someone on my team uses it and he tears it up i would definately recommend this gun to anyone |

Recommended
Upgrades: |
Shoot air not CO2.
Freak Barrel system to perfectly match paint ball and barrel size. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Price is right at $400-$425. Get an automatic hopper like the evolution II as you will need it when you start letting the paint fly.
I have only been playing for a short time but it is fun because people figure you must be good if you have a gun like this one.
Very quiet and accurate. After playing with Tippmann 98s this thing is a pleasure to shoot. I have had several people ask me how come the gun is so quiet. Everybody also thinks autocockers shoot like darts so they are intimidated by you before you even start to play. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Before you shoot (or after a little playing around) have this gun professionaly tuned (my local field charged $10). It will be the best money you spend. After that don't touch a thing (except for adjusting the velocity as needed).
Must add drop forward ($20-$50) and hose ($15).
Like a previous reviewer I also found it difficult to remove the bolt all the way as it stcks a little going through the back block. It took me awhile to figure this out but all you have to do to remove the bolt is twist the end of it clockwise.
The manual really sucks but there are some really good articles on the internet and most autocockers are basically the same.
Autocockers can be a little tricky to shoot. Just be sure you pull the trigger all the way back and let it go all the way forward. Just do that as fast as you can!
Autocockers are one of the more complex markers so if you are afraid of mechanical things you should probably get a different kind of marker. |
|
| Conclusion: |
At the given price point this gun is a great buy. Autocockers are fun to shoot as they are quiet and shoot straight. However, Autocockers take a little getting used to and can be intimidating if you fear mechanical things. |

| Weaknesses: |
Weak 3-way mount.

|
| Review: |
The marker performed well and reliably throughout the day. I would rather be using my Angel or the Hybrid Numatrix, but beggar can't be choosers.
The anoe job seems kind of cheap and uneven.
The 3-way is too exposed.
Good gun for people new to the wonderful world of cockers. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Not too shabby for under $340.00 |

|
| Review: |
This gun is quiet, accurate and upgradable, there's almost nothing i'd change, the first upgrade i'd get is nitro, then a barrel, but all stock barrels suck. lastly, if you get this gun, be careful what you buy for it, most upgrades work, but somethings made by kapp and wgp dont mix with the system x. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you're looking for an autococker thats relatively cheep, but good, this is the way to go. |

| Review: |
I got this gun from my friend for 325 so it didnt cost that much. He put a chrome handle on it so it already looked good and after i put a drop and new barrel i loved it. Its reliable and i havent had any problems with it yet, with nitrogen it shoots like a dream. Overall i really like this gun and i recomend it to the people who are startin to play in tournaments. (like me) |
|
| Conclusion: |
its a pretty sweet gun, and i really like it |

| Strengths: |
i got this product very cheap ( $380) at paintballmart in san antonio
its quiet and shots very well
my friend has a black magic autococker and i think my cocker can compete with it . The design is cool and is very lightweight compared to other autocockers
it shot at 300 fps right out of the box but i lower it to 270 fps and shots almost equal far and straight
it doesnt breaks paint my friends black magic break 1 of 10 paintballs shot
im thinking on canging the cocking rod the back block and the quick strip pin so it look cooler and that would be just $35 |
|
| Weaknesses: |
For a reason it stoped working it cocked itself or the pump arm would stuck there it was a MESS but a player fixed it to me THANX
it doesnt works well with CO2
if you have a fast finger the 3way will stop working for seconds |
|
| Conclusion: |
i Recommend it. it is:
-cheap
-quiet
-autococker
-shots straight
im giving it a 9 because it stopped working |

| Review: |
Ok so after owning my gx4 for a while and adding an eframe i had discovered a deep rooted inner love for cockers. after i had to sell my gx to pay of some serious debts i bought a system x for its cockerness.
it has a low operating pressure which causes less chops
an upgraded barrel is a good i dea
the threads on the barrel and the gun were not straight and the barrel was stiff going in so i consulted the manual and it recomended vaseline. after being ridiculed by my friends for buying vaseline for my "barrel" i used it on the threads. "DONT EVER DO THIS" it made my barrel imposible to screw off or on
|
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a great gun for the price. It is quality at a quality deal |

| Review: |
this gun is very nice and is very sexy! the only thing bad is if a ball breaks, but hardly breaks if you have good paintballs and the right size. i don't have anything else wrong with is so far so i give it a 9 cuz everything is not perfect besides me killing you at paintball |
|
| Conclusion: |
i would reccomend this gun to any1 for their 1st cocker or 2nd cocker.......this was my 1st one too. For the money its very nice, like i said if it had a better barrel or if you get i new one it would be really nice and the hottness. |
