| Review: |
I was playing the other day at my local field and i counld not tighten my back cap all the way because the allen key was just turning and destroying the thread. The fact that it would not tighten was a real issue because it meant that air was always leaking out of the back cap. There was a pro shop at the field so i bought my self the last back cap in store. When i took it out of its pack i noticed how heavy it was compared to the old one. It only took a few seconds to replace the back cap and once i had tightened it the leak stopped straight away. Even though i said it was quite heavey it made no noticeble weight difference to the over all weight. I got quite a few comments from a few of the players there (mainly about my skills but i think the back cap made me stand out). I found that the allen key was a tiny bit too big but it still fit. Plus it looks cool. |
|
| Conclusion: |
A must have upagrade as soon as you get your PMR. |

| Review: |
This is the first upgrade you need for a Rail. The stock one backs itself out so the marker starts to leak...no fun to be had there. Oh and the stock one strips out where you put the wrench in it and that'll make working on your marker a serious pain. Trust me go out and get this as soon as you can, hell order it when you get the marker. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy this first chance you get or you'll regret it |

| Review: |
Well theirs not much to say about this thing. I was forced to get it because my first backcap stripper and the bolt shot out the back and completely destroyed the threads on the cap. So I got this thing and it hasn't stripped on me and probobly won't. Thats a 10 in my book. I say you should get this before you get any other up so the same thing that happened to me the first time won't happen to you |
|
| Conclusion: |
Huge advantage over the plastic backcap, because it won't strip in the middle of a game and force you to call yourself out =) |

Yea the only thing that got me was it was $30 compared to ndz $20 but it was always outa stock and i didnt want to wait and i had the money so wat the heck. Yea it doesnt strip itself, unscrew itself or leak so it works. But i need 50 words so yea. |

| Conclusion: |
Buy it only if you cant find a ndz one but it works the same |

| Review: |
I got this back cap a week ago and it was well worth the $30. With the stock back cap, nitrogen would leak out of the bolt after I shot about 100 shots. Now with this, I don't need to worry about that. This was the best thing I could have bought for my PMR and it is a must have for this marker. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Definitely get this back cap if you have a PMR. A+++ |

| Review: |
This back cap is an excellent replacement for the stock one. The stock one was made of plastic and I somehow cracked it 2 weeks after i got it. I got this one from an MR paintball booth at a tournament and it's great. It's the exact match to my gun and the sleek look is awsome.
The only problem i have with this new backcap is it's a different size from any other allen key on the PMR the stock backcap needed a slightly larger allen key that won't fit into the new metal one. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Excellent replacement with only a minor flaw. |
