| Review: |
This is a very solid bolt that is delrin with an aluminum shaft. Which means it isnt very prone to breaking (which most bolts arent prone to anyway) and wont wear down the inside of marker by rubbing against it due to it being made from delrin. It has some really cool milling on it too which kinda cool cause when your back block is back, you can see it. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Over all- great bolt which out too much fame... definetly reccomend |

| Review: |
I have 2 of these that came with guns I bought. they are a near exact copy of the WGP Orracle bolt. It is so close that it has to be on purpose. the only differences are 3 shallow grooves on the shaft compared to 6 on WGP and on the knob that sticks out of the backblock the WGP has 2 rings of 6 shallow notches. the AIM has 6 that are slightly deeper but keep the same look. Assembly fit and weight are identical. This is stupid.
I compared my bolts with a home made ballance scale. Superfly much lighter than AIM. Aim=Orracle=JAM Delrin V1 (which has a big chunk of brass inside-- doh) I don't know actual weight but I estimate that the dart bolt is about half as much as the superfly and it weighs 44 grams. For the same price the Slik 3 Nylatron gets you a 15.5 gram bolt with a 2 gram pull pin. Get that one, less wieght less friction, less recoil/cocking mass/ cocking pressure weight hitting paint in case of shortstroking or eye failure
Why copy an old heavy bolt when a simple light delrin tube with an angled plastic plug behind the inlet hole pressed in would be cheaper to make and work better and be lighter? Not to mention wouldn't offend the second most litiginous company in the industry.
Weaknesses: It weighs nearly as much as the stock bolt, the back aluminum part rubs in the body, it has blow by, the set screw in the back of one of mine rattled out and lost the detent spring because AIM was too cheap to use locktite. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Don't buy it, it int much of an upgrade over most stock bolts after 2003. there alot of better bolts out there for the money. Buy something simple and light if you wanna spend $50 then get a Slik V3 Nylatron, or if you want something unusual, get a JAM V2 Delrin (First gen delrin is pretty heavy ) |

| Weaknesses: |
Very Heavy, too much aluminum |
|
| Review: |
Alright, so the bolt's pretty decent, it's very rugged, but delrin doesn't cover every area that will contact the body, like some have said, the head of the bolt is all delrin, as you can see in the picture, the rear is aluminum, and one ring touches the body. Way too heavy.. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Definitely not worth the money. If you snag one cheap or free then it works, but it's not worth buying. It's like any other delrin/aluminum hybrid bolt, except heavier. Like I said, there's a ring of aluminum that contacts the body, the rear of the bolt's black..That part's shiny silver now. It's nearly as heavy as my all aluminum black magic bolt, the air inlet isn't very large at all, capping efficiency.
Don't spend your money, DARTs are awesome, if you really fear a full delrin bolt breaking, pick up a SupaFly, at least it weighs less than the marker. |

| Review: |
It will get the job done, but the recoil from the aluminum just kills it, and doesn't help me keep my gun working right( pressure, velocity), i would suggest just finding a light weight full delrin bolt such as the Eclipse D.A.R.T. , or maybe the shocktech superfly bolt |
|
| Conclusion: |
Not worth it to buy |

| Review: |
This bolt was one of my favorites for the price. (ebay-$20 shipped)
Very smooth and very fast with my E1. Only thing bad is the made kick I would get out of it. Other then the kick, I have great air flow over the ball. Big and heavy pull pin but I used a derlin pull pin for it. I usally bring it with me in my gear bag to let other cocker players check it out. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Great bolt for the price. Back heavy but great flow. One of my favorites |

| Review: |
I found mine on a certain online e-auction site, and got it for $20. A great addition at that price. Increased the accuracy of my shot strings, the eficcency of my air use and speed of my shots. A great product. The core is aluminum and is milled at the back, which looks sweet when the back block is cocked |
|
| Conclusion: |
Would be a good deal @ retail price, a must if can be foung cheap. |

| Review: |
I used my stock bolt for a while and I decided it was about time to get rid of my piece of junk stock bolt. So I bought this bolt on the internet for 22 dollars. I got it and I could tell it was lighter than my stock bolt but I wasnt satisfied as I wanted to be. Just until I used it I could tell a big difference. This bolt worked very well. I lowered my COFF mode on my cocker a few numbers and it really rocks now.This bolt also looks cool my bolt is all black though. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Get this bolt it will work real well. I give it a 10 becuase of the performance and the price. If i would had paid retail i would had put a 9. |
