pbReview.com / Bob Long Russian Legion Intimidator / Bob Long Russian Legion Intimidator / Bob Long Russian Legion Intimidator / Bob Long Russian Legion Intimidator
Alias- Great
A-Bomb Intimidator- Good milling
Shocktech DM4- just freaking nuts.
Marker Setup:
Whatever
Recommended Upgrades:
Better barrel
Strengths:
Weight, ROF, Simplicity of design, Milling.
Weaknesses:
Maybe some people still have hard feelings about the Cold War...?
Review:
The Russian Legion is one of the best Intimidators made. The milling is very square and angled, as opposed to the smooth milling of the DM4. I suppose Bob milled this to hint at the old Soviet T-series tanks that were very square in design. The Russian colors also add a sense of national pride for the Russians (since they get paid by the government to play, it's ridiculous :-D).
The weight is very agreeable with small front players who often lack that muscle density in the arms. Just combine that with a 45/5000 tank from PMI and a halo b and you are set.
The ROF is just amazing, even though it is close to the same as the rest of the Frenzy board-ed intimidators. A slow day on this thing is 14 bps.
The Intimidator has always ben know for it's simplicity of design. Lube the ram and clean the LPR, that's it.
Russian Legion Intimidator, CP pro rail, Stiffi Switch barrel system, 68/4500 crossfire tank, Halo w/ empire reloader B upgrade.
Recommended Upgrades:
Shoots well stock, just add an on/off and a rail. Get a good barrel to go with it too.
Strengths:
Very light and very fast.
Weaknesses:
Haven't noticed any yet.
Review:
I just bought my red to black fade Russian Legion intimidator and its been a great marker so far. I have no complaints about the rate of fire or the weight. I highly recommend this gun to all that like light guns w/ ridiculous rates of fire, even with a halo. I don't care much for the Russian Legion bubble stickers, so I took those off, but overall, the performance of the gun is phenomenal and meets my needs as a mid/back. I can't wait for XPSL vegas.
Conclusion:
I recommend that you purchase one, they are awesome guns.
Angel Speed 05 - fast, but the RL is better
Alias Intimidator - RL and Alias are about the same
E2 Orracle - Fast, but RL is better
Marker Setup:
Russian Legion Intimidator
68/4500 Air America Armageddon
Freak Barrel (.689) insert
Recommended Upgrades:
Barrel
-either Dye, Smart Parts, or CP
Strengths:
Speed, Weight (very light), comfortable
Weaknesses:
Price, that's it
Review:
I've have my Russian Legion intimidator for about 3 months, and i got to say that it's the best gun that i have ever shot or owned. It's unbelievably fast, and yet still not an air hog. I use the Egg II with Z board, so i don't have have to worry about ball detents or anything. the gun stock is perfect. I expesially like how the LCD board is now in the grip frame.
nothing I've used compares to this gun I guess I've used tons of different rec blow backs but I've never owned a high end electro of this caliber. Have tested Ion, shocker, defiant, ego....
Marker Setup:
Russian legion
16".692 Dye ul
hybrid bolt / adj ram cap
cp trigger
Halo b wth rip
ND micro rail
68/4500 air america lp
I like 2% milk
Recommended Upgrades:
It doesn't come with a swanky case like the ego so I guess that might be something to look at. I'm getting a hybrid ram cap and I've been considering a cp trigger because I tested a timmy with one and it was sweet gravy mmmmmmmmm. The barrel seems alright I guess as good as any other one piece so maybe you would consider getting a barrel kit. Also you need a bottomline kit, hoses, and elbows etc. cheap gaugeing if you ask me. I guess that most people want to personalize that part of their marker (ya right)
Strengths:
This marker is well balanced, looks cool and shoots mad ropes of paint.
Weaknesses:
The alias 05 manual chews nuts big time
Review:
I must begin by saying that this is the first high end marker I have ever owned. I was in the market for a thousand dollar marker and it just so happens my local paintball shop had a mad sale on these babies (999.99 tax incl. (and where I live I pay 14% sales tax ouch)) So the first thing I noticed when my gun arrived was the horrible condition of the box. It made me think of the beginning of Ace ventura when he's delivering that parcel. The next thing I noticed (sadly) was that BLAST had substituted bob long grips instead of the more attractive Russian Legion grips.
After I finished crying my mommy made me a smoothie and that made it all better. SO anyways (back to the review) this gun is very fast in all of the firing modes although I haven't found much of a use for the delay mode (I may need a cat scan but I see no point in using this function, I always use the forced mode) Keep in mind I haven't had the gun for long maybe it's like the coolest of all of the frenzies many functions, like the game clock. Who In their right mind takes their eyes off the action to check the game clock (once again I dunno I might find a use for this function).
I have noticed the lpr pressure creeps around a bit but I'm sure that will improve with time as the regs break in.
Other than that I have been majorly impressed with this gun. It is fast and light and looks incredible without the hassle of complex (hard to clean) milling. It is probably one of the sexiest of bob longs creations, although now I'm getting really subjective.
Conclusion:
All in all I'd say this is a good gun to get if you are in the market for a thousand dollar paintball marker. I have no regrets buying this. Even if I got stiffed on the grips.

Review:
This is a great gun, definately worth the money especially with the sale price there going for right now. I am very impressed with this gun. Over all the gun performs great and feels good to. The gun is great stock and does not need much upgrades but its good to upgrade anyways. The reason why i put the upgrades i did is to increase the performance and feel of the gun and the 2 litre reg will make the gun more efficient. Although the stock reg isn't bad i'd still like better consistency over the chrono for better accuracy. all in all a great gun. Definately worth buying and can't go wrong with timmy's.
Conclusion:
Get this gun right now! It's on for an amazing price and is a great gun. You won't be sorry buying it. I don't usually give guns a 10 cuz every gun has it flaws but i'll give this one a 10 because iv noticed other people have been bringing the rating down and the gun still deserves atleast a 9 in my opinion and should deserve a 10 as well. An outstanding gun for performance, looks, and feel.
This gun is soo sick i tested it today in my buddys backyard and i could hit up around 20 bps it is such a good gun. It has alot of speed and accuracy... Almost as accurate as my other buds cocker. get it get it get sooo sick and best of all its russian.
Buy this gun. I havent got it yet but my friend has it with the boomstick. I shot it and it was excellent. I had my douts because i had some bad experences with timmys but this one was great. I highly recomend this gun to anyone whos got the cash for it.
new barrel as the stock one leaves something to be desired
Strengths:
accuracy
SPEED
ease of use
milling
weight
consistency
Weaknesses:
Havent found any yet
Review:
OK, i took this outta the box and i was amazed! the milling isnt too extravagent but its nice and sets u apart from the other timmys. After playing with my trigger for a bit i got my *ss over to my friends house to use his air cuz i was out but i couldnt wait to air this up. After i shot it i think i sh*t myself because combined with the weight, speed, and accuracy i was amazed and forgot about all the cash i dropped on this so get off ur couch and get this gun!

Review:
I think that the RL Timmy is the best marker I have ever had the pleasure to own. It is light, accurate, and it rips like no other marker. It also is a great marker to make a project out of. This gun has hit speeds of 25 bps over the chrono with paint. It is also a very effecient marker. I can get at least 5-6 hoppers with a 45/4500 tank.
Conclusion:
Go buy this marker online or from your local shop. You will love this gun if you purchase it.
