2002 black WGP autococker, black WGP hinge frame, blue Dye Sticky3, black 8" NW drop, black WGP Black Magic inline reg, chrome ANS pneumatics, chrome custom gas block, blue Shocktech Supafly bolt, Shocktech ball detent, Shocktech Rat 3:16 valve, chrome ANS beavertail, black 12v Revy w/ X-Board and blue Vortex impeller, PMI Pure Energy 68ci 4500psi tank, blue JT bottle cover
Strengths:
Very adjustable with the Jackhammer II reg, very short 3-way, snappy ram, set cycles well, once adjusted there are no leaks and it is very efficient. I don't have the ANS gas block, i have a custom block, but the ANS one is very good as far as pressure and flow. People complaining about leaks need to either learn how to maintain their equipment or sell it.
Weaknesses:
Nothing bad that I have found. I am a marker tech, and I recommend this product to anyone.
Conclusion:
Very good product, made by a very good company. Kudos to ANS for their pneus.
the adjustble jackhammer 2 is very nice and i would reccommend this to anyone
Weaknesses:
there is nothing bad about this product it looks good on my gun

Strengths:
Short trigger, fast, regulator is easy to adjust
Weaknesses:
Block bolt is solid.
3-way is touchy.
Disassembly will ruin the ram, no rebuilding.
Review:
Ram is quick and responsive even at lower psi. My ram psi is low enough that paint won't chop when I short stroke the trigger (even with stock hammer and valve springs).
Trigger pull is shorter and hard to short stroke. Good shot groupings, distance (but I think thats more in the timing)and consistency over the chrono +/- 5 fps average. The speed of these pneumatics are only limited by the trigger speed. I out run my viewloader with ease now, which actually causes a chopping problem. The adjustable reg ads a great level of convience to the operation of your marker.
3 way (4 way, whatever) can be tricky
-jackhammer psi too high = trigger won't return well
-jackhammer psi too low = 3 way "O" rings leak
The 3-way shuttle has to be adjusted perfectly and well lubricated to stop that little hissing leak. Sometimes the 3-way will start to leak (very slightly) and just stop again (regardless of trigger position) for no apparent reason. Out of the box 3way is set up for a slide trigger so hoses need to be reversed if you have a hinge. BE CAREFUL!! The barbs don't use top hats so If you stretch the hoses where the barb holds it (like I did) they will leak like crazy when you put them back on. I ended up cutting 1/16"-1/8" off the hose length so they would fit tight and not leak.
The front banjo bolt is not hollow all the way through so it's not a volumizer. That kinda sucks!
Conclusion:
Co$t is high. Looks great. Weighs 1/2 lb on the dot. Great reflex and speed.
Works better than stock pneumatics gets 8/10 because I have little experience with other pneumatics .
EDIT: 16-July-04
Added ANS QEV's which shortened trigger pull by almost half , freakin' rips!
Added Shocktech Bomb 3-way, so far only slightly better than ANS 3-way.
EDIT: 16-October-04
After close to 2 years use; and only God knows how many cases later, the ram threads seperated from the ram and stayed in the block. Good thing I don't use loktite.

STOCK BARREL <---- awesome barrel
12V hopper w/ X-board
68 4500 Crossfire nitro
Strengths:
Cycles so fast and the 4-way is shorter than stock but if your going to get a hindge get a bomb. External adjustements can be done on the LPR thats nice to have. Looks great, people say they have 4-way leaks but i haven't had one yet. Hard to put on so i didn't put it one, laziness is also a factor in that. Got mine in red to match my marker but you can get it in a huge selection.
Weaknesses:
People say it leaks but i haven't had problems with that, hard to put on. People also say ANS is not that great of a company, but i havne't had any problems with the front kit or my ANS inline reg. PRICE IS HUGE ON THIS, i 130 man i had to throw out 160 for it. im thinking 130 is wishful thinking.
Conclusion:
Buy it if you don't want to waste time building your own custom front kit. Works just as well as other ones but the rock and bullet have advantages over the ANS LPR and 4-way. Still get out there and get this if you have the money.

Marker Setup:
ans gx3 black+chrome
Strengths:
Nice short tigger pull, low pressure, great efficiancy, quiet cyclying, looks awesome

Weaknesses:
There is basically nothin bad about this buit the fact that you have to clean it if you get shot here
The 3-way isnt that short but it is perfect unless you wanna get a bomb or a bullet
Conclusion:
I loves this ans product and I havent had one problem with it. It looks awesome and preform very well and gives you that felling that you didnt waste your money
Ans products are good now and i trust them a lot i dont care if you have a black magic, sto, oracle, outcast or a stock cocker

Review:
I have had these Pnumatics for a little while now, and I have to say that they are easly the best I have used, I have my timing set so close, and with the ANS 90* frame, and QEV's, the gun in litterally walkable (in short bursts of course), and I have no wories of choping because the gun easly pinches paint rather than choping it!!!
I shot my gun again today just because, and I completely fell in love with it again, my electo might have to go on the shelf for the next tourny, this gun preforms, and is just as reliable as my electro!
Conclusion:
I definatly recomend this product to anyone who wants to have a very high end preforming mech, rather than a ediocre preforming one! They look great, and they preform just as great!!!
Pre-Assembled, Easy to Attach, Quailty Craftsmanship, Durable, Inexpensive
Weaknesses:
None
Review:
I bought this item after I took a nasty "Bunkering Hit" to my sotck front block. The person must have been shooting hot, because the hoses were ruptured, and paint got inside of everything. I bought this one based on the price. It was easy to install, and easy to set the timing. I didn't care for the "Mini" ram, but all in all..... it is a quality product.
Conclusion:
If you are looking for a "Better than Stock" front block, then here is your solution: buy the A.N.S. Front Block Kit (mine came with the "Jackhammer 2" LPR).
ANS pnumatics are not only nice looking and in a variety of colors they perform well and work forever the 3 way has a smooth short pull the jackhammer has nice contour and adjustable knob the ram performs very well but I just dont like the fact you can only get it in stainless yea it durable but it doesnt match the rest since it cant be anodized
Conclusion:
If you are thinking of getting ANS pnumatics you will not be disapointed due to its capabilities of high performance.

Review:
This is the best front block kit on the market for a mech cocker. I have no doubt that the ANS would out preforem any pneu's. the ram is fast the lpr is one of the best on the market and the 3 way is one of the shortest around.
Conclusion:
Go ANS if you have a mech cocker they will out preform all the compotion and give you a high rate of fire.
