Recommended
Upgrades: |
Standard barrle is quite good, but I found an improvement in range and accuracy with a Smart Parts progressive barrel. Gravity feed hopper keeps up with the marker on semi auto mode, would probably benefit from an electic hopper on fully auto mode, but as most UK sites ban fully auto I have not been able to try it out properly on this mode. |

| Review: |
My biggest moan about this marker is its price. You may say that $170 is not alot of money, but here in the UK we have to pay the equivalent of $290. The sight rail on this marker, as with most others, is utterly useless as the vertical feed is directly in the way. I have had a problem with this marker with the 9 volt battery going flat if left in the trigger housing for more than 24 hours after use. This is more annoying than anything else because if I forget to take the battery out is goes flat and I have to pay out for another. Some of the cosmetic bits are a bit tacky. The trigger housing covers dont look to nice as they are clear plastic, and the drop forward is chrome plated as opposed to polished aluminium. Some of the chrome has already started to peel away on the sharp parts of the drop forward, and it is only 3 months old. Enough moaning. Its a really nice marker. Its fast and quite accurate for a marker that is capable of throwing alot of paint per second. Its not the lightest marker in the world, but on the other hand its certainly not the heaviest. The basic E-Rex is quite alot lighter, and the E-Rex Pro is quite a bit heavier. It definately benefits from an upgrade barrel, I use a Smart Parts progressive barrel, but thats not to say that the standard one isnt any good, because its actually pretty good for standard. I really like this marker. I was using a Bone Daddy GT, but after using this I think I will stick with electric markers as opposed to mechanical ones. I rate this marker highly recommended. |
|
| Conclusion: |
A very good all round marker, would benefit from a few upgrades, but is still good straight from the box. Great value for money in the states but I would recommend anyone looking to buy one in the UK shops about. |

| Review: |
This gun is very accurate, quiet, gas efficient. It does get a little bit heavy when you have been playing for more than three hours. I got a great deal on this gun. For the price I bought it at this gun has been the best. I would recommend this gun for anybody. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a great gun. I would recommend this gun for any beginner. |

| Review: |
I paid 90 bucks for the player's kit witch included the gun, mask, e-hopper, and other accessories. I don't know if my gun is the only one that shoots 8bps on full auto or if every other review on this gun is inaccurate. In the manual the specified rate of fire is 14 round per second, but that doesn't tell under what conditions. It might be walking the trigger in semi auto mode, or an engineering guess. I will tell you it dam sure isn't in full auto mode. The most I got out of this gun in full auto was 100 rounds in 12 seconds. That's 8bps, do the math. I'm not saying that 14 bps is impossable I'm saying not in full auto mode. When I got my gun it would jam every couple hundred shots or so. I found the o-ring for the striker (red) was on the bolt and a bolt o-ring (black) was on the striker. I bought mine brand new so it must have been done at the factory. By the time I found the problem the striker o-ring was very stretched out so it needed to be replaced. After fixing that it hasn't jammed on me yet. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Great gun for the money good for beginners or rec players |

| Review: |
The gun is a great beg. gun. its great for speed ball and woods ball. if you are looking for your first electric gun this is the way to go I got it in a package dill if you did to I suggest you get a auto hopper so it can keep up with it is can shoot a steady 8-10 balls a sec but as i said before you need a auto hopper to keep up I suggest you get a evaluation hopper if you can and a new barrel if you can. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Good beg gun if it is a good first gun. i would give it a 8.9 but i can't. |

| Review: |
I love this gun it full auto and i can blow any one away with it . It intimidates newbies and has a great color scheme right out of the box. You need to get a longer barrel for it . And you need to make sure that the saftey is on because of the light trigger pull . |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy this gun . |

| Review: |
This has been a great marker since I started using it. It does not take very much maintenance and it has awesome color scheme straight out of the box. It shoots extremely fast, you MUST get a motorized loader to keep up with the speed. The trigger pull is VERY light so you have to make sure to keep it on safety if your not on the field because if you touch the trigger you WILL accidentally fire the marker. So make sure you keep your barrel condom on. |
|
| Conclusion: |
All in all, this marker has given me no problems and would be a great marker to get for an intermediate player. |

| Review: |
This gun is pretty good. I've used better but if you are looking for you are a beginner this gun is probably good for you. This was my first gun and my friend reccomended it to me. I'm a girl and I didn't know too much about the sport and I felt pretty confident with my gun when i first went out onto the field. |
|
| Conclusion: |
As I said before, I would reccomend this gun to all beginners and maybe intermideate. |

| Review: |
Great gun nice fire. Needs better hopper and better barrel. Needs more ugrades. You should bring more than 2 guns to the feild if you go with a richochet. You will get tired of chopped balls. I liked it untill i brought it to the feild and i use it for one fame. It was ok. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Get it if you want your first electric |

| Review: |
I bought one on sale and let me tell you, it was a sweet deal! for 109 dollars i got the gun, a mask, a richochet ak loader, and barrel accesories. overall, the gun is pretty well made. the plain erex is kinda cheap lookin and it is a waste of money to spend an extra 60 dollars on an erex elite pro. this gun is good for begginers and is very cost friendly for all those who dont want to spend too much money. this gun is a good choice if you want a backup marker or a gun to play with every once in a while. |
|
| Conclusion: |
The features on the gun are pretty good and full auto is pretty fast. Buy this gun if you need one. |
