Each gun is hand built and tuned by pro gun techs Brian Duffy and Mitch Heinrich. The anodizing of the raised flames on this gun is truly incredible and must be seen up close to be fully appreciated. There's nothing else like it.

|
| Conclusion: |
This is the best cocker I have shot. Accurate, Balanced, Fast, Smooth, and Great looking. If your gonna buy a Angel DONT get this marker. Angel is a name brand, and some people at your field may think you should have gotten a angel, but they wont when you unload a hopper at their bunker from 100+ft! |

er...hmm, on the semi-level none really...maybe the Automag RT Pro...I rank this preformance with the E-Mag and Intimidator and I rank those as the BEST guns made...okay, so this 'cocker is lower |
|
| Marker Setup: |
don't feel like writing this, too lazy, maybe later |
|
Recommended
Upgrades: |
Reg, probably that Black Ice Reg or whatever once is on the Black Magic 'Cocker... |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Like any 'cocker, it is smooth and rhythmic. The Boomstick, when matched with good paint it incredible, although I believe a J&J Ceramic 2-Piece would've been a better choice, but I love J&J Products. The Milling and anoing job is outstanding... |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Doesn't come with Lisa Harvey (aw)...
The cost isn't anything that tickled me either....
|
|
| Conclusion: |
Steller gun...haven't chopped at all...
The guy that gave it a two doesn't know anything! He claims much experiance with a 'Cocker and yet he cannot fix the imagined leak in the gun. And he has to retime it which, for someone with so much claimed experiance with 'cockers, is not difficault. As for short-stroking, most people do becuase they don't know how to use a 'cocker. Guaranteed that when/if this guy sells his gun, he'll claim it's the best thing that ever came around! The guy can't even spell!
A 'Cocker, if you know how to use them and maintain them, will be great guns and they are NOT complex...well, they are to people who don't know how to use them or they go by popular opinion but not by actual experiance.
As for the whole reg and bottomline thing, why would they put one on when you'd most likely replace the thing anyway? The weight isn't terrible either unless ur a real wimp...with a 68/4500psi tank and a full revvy, this thing was not that heavy...I'm not that strong or big! i'm like 125, bench 150, so I'm not exactly a beast! Size? what? I'm not even going to dignify that comment with a response... |

| Review: |
This gun shot relatively good. But later, it almost seemed that the parts were almost wearing out. Maybe i just got a lemon but im not sure. After a while the performance started to decrease, the gun started chopping/leaking, always needed fine tuning which i could provide but was of course a paint. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a very pretty and well balnced gun. I dont know why though but after about 2 months of use the gun started choping soooo much paint it was unbearable. Im guessing this is a problem because the guns on an extreamly high pressure (prone to chop balls) but the gun is very pretty.
Just to be fair i'll give it a... |

| Strengths: |
extremely accurate, good range, it has good gas efficiency. Looks awesome. Pretty light wait. easy to clean. doesn't brake balls. Doesn't short stroke. And once again it looks really good. Has a really cool sound and quiet. Fires really fast too. It's a really good gun. You might want hinge frame though. But it does have the best of everything. It rules!!!! |
|
| Weaknesses: |
nothing, this is an awesome marker. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a really good marker, I prefer intimidator, but this is the best cocker i've used. If you have the money, then get it, it's worth it. |

|
| Marker Setup: |
Kapp flame autococker, nitro duck 3500 psi tank wgp bottom line and drop forward and 12 volt revy hopper. |
|
Recommended
Upgrades: |
Nothing really gun runs perfectly with stock parts. i may want to bring forward like all guns this gun does not come with a bottom line plus u can short stroke it so u can get a hinge. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Every thing, i have never been so satisfied with a gun before. i mean this thing is really compact, the stock barrel is perfect , very well balenced and is very compact. Also it is one of the most accurate gun i have ever seen. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Nothing really. a problem i would say though is short stroking it. now this is a problem anyone can have but once u get used to it, it will like never happen. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is one of the best guns i have ever used any other reveiw in here that gave it one out of ten is lying and it is a fake reveiw because they are probably jealous. |

Upgrades: |

Drop Forward (a heavy and long gun will make you tip over) |

|
|
| Strengths: |
Accurate
w/ Eblade best cocker ever
nice stock barrel
very pretty |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Pricey!
needs love (maintenance)
Heavy (but not a bad thing) |
|
| Review: |
Pros;
Absolutely the prettiest marker ever. it has great accuracy and with the right additions (eblade) can turn into the most accurate cocker that you can walk (fingers)
nice stock barrel though i wish it was the same as the regular boomsticks and is not just glued together. the stock trigger is not that bad either. it is the fastest true mechanicle slide i have ever shot
Cons;
well the biggest is the price. though i have never heard of anyone actually paying 1300 for it you are still not going to get away with it for less than 1000 when you get a reg and tank (maybe a drop). it gussels oil like the tinman from the wizard of oz. Kind of heavy. if you are a fan of the lighter stuff or a frontman dont buy this marker. but like boris says "the weight is a sign of reliability. i always go for reliability, and if it doesnt shoot you can still hit them over the head with it" (Snatch). i do not condone the actually hitting over the head of someone with a marker, you dont really want to hurt them and if you do you shouldnt be playing this sport. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you are a mid player this is a great marker. if you play back definetly get an eblade becuse you will need the speed and the accuracy is great so you dont have to continualy waste pods o paint just tryin to hit someone across the field after they break. these days you can get this marker for about 700 on ebay but is a very rare marker. stopped production only after like a year or so. i suspect it will become a collectors item in about 7 or 8 years |

i love this gun 3 grand balls diablo 13 for, no chop. way more acc them a 03 shocker or a an "angel" like there the best, the guy who says this probly has the gun up his ass more then he shoots it. i think this is the best and ived used alot of gun angel, shockers, impulse, timmys, SPYDERS yes, and tippmans. i love this gun more than any. and if you hate the price just know...... the flames on the side took six hours |

| Conclusion: |
i love this gun more than anyothers |
