 |
| Review: |
(NEW EDITED INFO ADDED)
The weakness of not being able to switch between different blocks and bolts is really not a weakness if u think about. Because with the pin sliding in from the top of the block instead of the traditional horizontal way, (in my opinion) is stated to be more stable and more durable with the pin holding the bolt from the top. Plus the pin is not in the way when u are looking down the side of your cocker when lining up your shots.
This two piece bolt kit is very unique in that u can change the facing of the bolt between a venturi face or an open face (yes the bolt gives u options on what u want to use....just simply unheard of from a bolt). Also both faces are delrin as well.
It has its own back block and pin which easily can be taken out or put in (uses a single ball bearing in the bolt to lock the pin in place). this design works very well with electro cockers as they recommend a lite bolt and block combo. This kit is working magic in my cocker and i truly don't feel any kick from using it....heck i don't even feel anything.
(NEW EDITED INFO ADDED)
Overall, the kit comes in black or chrome back blocks with matching bolts ends with black delrin fronts for both faces....ans suggests the open face for electro cockers due to having a higher flow and i currently use that one in my cocker...but i bet venturi face can do some damage on back players when u want to get that good air placement on your paintballs for accuracy........oh yeah u can find these for 69.99 down to 59.99. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I love this back block and bolt kit combo....just because its doing the job for me....and i dont feel my cocker cycling when im shooting 13-15 bps...
(NEW EDITED INFO ADDED)
ROFL...13-15 bps pssh...got it up to 20+ range now thanks to racegun.dk |

| Review: |
This is a sweet bolt kit. It comes with its own back block and 2 interchangeable tips. This makes this bolt kit the best there is. The 2 tips are an open face, which allows you to drop your pressure, and a ventauri tip. Over a stock gen-x quick pull bolt, this bolt is lighter, cycles faster, requires less pressure to cock, and is quieter. The ventauri is also much more accurate than any other bolt out there. I love this kit and i wouldn't trade it for any other bolt. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
This is the best bolt out there, hands down. It is light, fast, and has changeable tips. If you want a sweet cocker upgrade, get this bolt. |

 |
| Review: |
This is a wonderful product. Clean lines, matching color (go through the website)
Different tips, 1 venturi and 1 open face.
Wide, oval inlet hole to catch and redirect all that air.
Even with the venturi tip attached, you still get the full amount of air, versus other venturi tips where you must force the air into the holes then redirect.
And ANS is a quality company, so you're buying a quality product. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Looking for a new bolt, stepping away and being different. This bolt is perfect.

| Review: |
This bolt came stock with GX5-e and seemed to work fine shooting wise but didnt make my gun cycle fast enough because it is kinda heavy compared to other bolt(3ds air o bolt). All derlin makes it smooth when firing and not have as much blowback from o-rings. Seems to me that if you dont apply light light layer of oil on it wont cycle as fast if you just cleaned it. I always put light layer bolt seems to work better even tho they say it will make it swell it doesnt. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
If your trying to reduce your cocking mass this probably isnt for you. Would go for Air-o-Bolt by 3ds for same price, i highly recomend it, will have tighter ball groupings. |

| Review: |
This bolt is amazing. The accuracy on my cocker is now just plain outrageous. I can easily put 5 balls right on top of each other using this bolt and my STO barrel from about 50-75 ft. The weight of this bolt is awesome, the entire assembly (bolt, backblock, and pin) weighed less than just my stock bolt. A cool feature of this bolt is the two different bolt faces that come with it. It has a venturi front as well as a big open front. I'm using the venturi. The bolt also comes with a nice, lightweight backblock that matches the color of the bolt. Also, you can get it to match your cocker if you order from ANS (only took 2 days to get to me and i live in GA!). Mine matches the red anno on my trilogy perfectly. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
If you want a bolt that will increase your accuracy and cyclic rate, get this one. I've heard it doesn't work too well with bladed cockers just because of the black color, which is a bit of a shame. This is another quality product from ANS in a long line of quality products. |

| Review: |
I bought this cheap off the internet at a upgrade bolt and it has been performing flawlessly! No Chops, balls are shooting straighter, easy to maintain, reliable. I have to run the velocity a little higher then the stock bolt, but its not weakness compared to how well it performes. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Good buy |

| Review: |
This is my first delrin bolt and I got it for 50 which isnt bad since it comes with two interchangable heads and back block. It came with a cool back block, but that is the only back block it will work with. The best part is is comes with two interchangable heads(venturi and open). I prefer the open head. Also it is a delrin bolt so it is self lubricated so you wont have to have lube you bolt all the time. The bad thing is that it does not have o-rings. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
This is a great bolt for a great price. It comes with a back block and two heads. It would be perfect if it could fit on other back blocks and had o-rings but it is good enough. |

| Review: |
First off, I'm very impressed with ANS products. I have alot of faith and trust in their company and am excited to finally have a GX-4 cocker with a delrin bolt. The bolt kit comes with 2 changable ends, one with 16 evenly spaced holes (venturi pattern) and another with 1 large hole. The difference has been argued over endlessly and most people say its personal preferance as to which one tip you use. In the box the venturi tip is already attached, which can be removed with a small allen wrench. Delrin is a plastic like material and is perfect for use in a paintball marker. The ANS delrin bolts used to ship with little jewel stickers on the back of the bolt itself. They dont anymore and its nothing to cry over because the sticker was said to fall off after a few games anyway. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
It is a very good upgrade for any Autococker and you dont have to worry about overoiling(which I did quite frequently) because you DO NOT need to oil it. Period. Great product. I bought two for each of my guns and I am completely satisfied |

| Review: |
I really like this bolt, dont get me wrong the stock bolt on the autococker was great, but this one doesnt need to be oiled and it has the 2 changable front. i also like the push pin on the top rather than the side because the side option gets in your way when you are trying to look down the side of the gun to aim |
 |
| Conclusion: |
overally this a good bolt and i would go ahead and spend the 50 bucks to get it, it really is amazing |
