| Review: |
im not sure what the other people who reviewed this were talkin bout but i had no real problem with my bolt. it looks nice, it slides like butter into my gun unlike the stock bolt, it doesnt damage the gun also ive noticed a sound decrease not a whole lot but just enough to notice. an also the little e on bak looks cool. of course it does have a cheap pull pin that feels like its gonna break but i jus use my stock pin with it. also it is slightly lower flow than stock it brought my velocity from 260 to around 256 so it isnt that bad jus a little difference. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I think this is a very good bolt for the money i bought mine for 45 at my local shop i dunno wut the other guys r talkin bout i found this to be a nice bolt an noticed no blowback whatsoever i would definately reccommend this bolt to neone the only things that can compare are the supafly an free flow |

|
| Weaknesses: |
LOW FLOW! the venturi is so air restrective on this bolt. The stock bolt is much higher flowing than this bolt. It also comes with this cheep plastic evo pull pin that seems like it is going to break just holding it in your hand. |
|
| Conclusion: |
i wouldnt recomend this bolt for a cocker. there are better choices out there for the same price. |

|
| Weaknesses: |

this bolt allowed so much blow back that the balls couldn't feed.

|
| Conclusion: |
do not waste your money on this bolt. go buy a jersey it will help your marker out about as much as the bolt. |

| Review: |
This bolt was a very good bolt compaired to the others on my list that I've tried. It was very well designed and very cool to look at fo sho. Fits in the marker like butter with no o-rings or lube, very nice. IT DOESENT CHOP PAINT! as long as your marker is timed nicly you will not chop a ball and when the paint flys outta tha barrel its FLYING!!! nice straight shots along side with a pipe kit - shoots darts! Its very silent and has no kick what-so-ever. I was very pleased with this product and would reccomend this to anyone that wants to upgrade/switch bolts. |
|
| Conclusion: |
All in all, this is a very nice bolt, price is amazing for what this bolt does for you! very nice. |

| Review: |
I bought this bolt for 70 dollars canadian. All i wanted to do was increase accuracy and lessen the kick to my gun. my Cocker now stays completely still when fired, so i can rip it up with the eblade, and it hits where i aim with tthe freak. This also made my marker considerably quieter. This would be an excellent addition to any Cocker. I reccomend it to everyone. |
|
| Conclusion: |
HUGE improvment on stock bolt, great for the price.
Makes the kick go away. Like firing a feather, no recoil AT ALL!
accuracy improvment as well. |

| Review: |
I bought this online with out any notice of how it worked. When it arrived I immediatly put it in the gun and shot it. The first ball I shot choped and messed up my hopper. Then I tried the bolt with out a hopper, after i cleaned my gun. It choped a ball right on my mask, and was never used again. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This bolt is the worst bolt Ive ever used, Ive never chopped so many balls so fast for the entire time Ive played this game. I do not reccomend buying this piece of crap. Just use your stock bolt for auto cockers. |

| Review: |
I got this bolt for pretty cheap(about $10). When i put it in my gun and went out to my backyard to test it out is was decent. Until the back EVIL jewel flew out and i couldnt find it. The bolt for some reason then was not shooting at all like it was before. I put back in my stock bolt and it shot fine. It might of been a "bad egg" that i got or it might just be all the EVIL bolts in general. Overall it was a bad experience but i wish i could try another one im just scared that it will happen again. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Test it out before you buy it and if it works well then go for it. Although i would highly recommend getting the ShockTech SuperFly it is really nice. |

| Review: |
The only reason i bought this bolt was because it was in sto size, i read the bad reviews and i was thinkin i might not get it, but hey it works. if you have a eblade dont buy it because its really light and it is smaller than the stock bolts. if you have a normal gun and dont mind the wobble go ahead and get it. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Ppretty good i guess |

| Review: |
I purchased the bolt around a year ago..and was very pleased..despite that it is a lil pricey...from the time that i used the bolt on my '03 cocker i noticed that it greately decreased the sound..making it extremely quiet combined with a freak barrel...
and despite the other reviews i've read i havent had any problems with the bolt...althought the pin does seem very weak..but mine is still in working order.. |
|
| Conclusion: |
The evil bolt is a very nice product but for the price you can get better...i gave it an 8..because of the fact that it is pricey and you can get a better product from shocktech for the same price.. |

| Review: |
i work at a paintball shop and i've timed many cockers. at first i thought my gun was just timed wrong. so many chopped balls. i took my gun completely apart time after time trying to test why i kept chopping balls. i kept cheking my 3-way, back block, etc. etc. i did a lot of research on the net to help me try to correct this. im mad that it took me so long just to figure all this out. <P>
great... i thought it was just me, but there are a lot of people having the same problems as me. i read all the bad reviews and then i knew what i suspected. this bolt is no good
<P>
way too much blow back. chopped balls every 5-10 shots. this bolt would chop a ball and blow it all into my hopper. it take like 30 minutes to take apart my hopper, clean it, then put it back together.<P>
|
|
| Conclusion: |
i finally put the stock bolt on and my gun ripped as usual with no chops. i would not recommend this bolt for the price - $50. <P>
i have read though, that you need to find the right delrin bolt for your cocker. not all will fit and work properly.
