| Review: |
I love this gun. It's seen 1 tournament and several rec games since I first acquired it back in February. As a front man I rely more on my own personal movement and snap shooting than the long strings of paint my back players are so fond of. Combine that with how light this gun is and it really is a pretty nice front man's gun. The milling is nice, curvy but not organic looking, with the occasional sharp edge. The whole thing flows real nice. It has pretty decent efficiency and the Shocktech in-line reg (made by CP) is VERY consistant. The trigger is short and smooth, the roller sear makes a real difference. I've kept all the parts "stock", no reason to replace something Shocktech. |

| Conclusion: |
For $1250 it may be way too pricey, but I picked mine up brand new from ST for a mere $725. I was told they were stopping production of the mechanical Aftershock and SFL series in favor of their eBlade counterparts, but will continue to produce the mechanical Tremor Series, hence why I got mine so cheap... Awesome gun, rare and well worth it if you can get it under $1250. It may be a mechanical Cocker, but setup correctly it still throws the paint plenty fast and stops on balls rather than chopping them! No product is perfect, score 9. |
