Review:
Great gun for the new player and a great gun for people who are to lazy to fix things that don't like to fix things.
The only thing I didn't like about it was when I bought it the barrel kept coming out when I was playing, which is annoying when playing speed ball.
Conclusion:
Buy one now. That is not a request that's an order

Fast
Easy to use and Clean
Not a lot of Money
Just a nice Gun
Weaknesses:
Stock Barrel
Will Burst when you hit the trigger once ( not really a good thing )
Review:
This gun is a really good gun especially for Beginers to Amature. It's pretty fast, belive me fast enough you really don't need much faster than this unless your playing speedball with some good competitors. Just overall a sweet gun.
Some Weaknesses about it is that the stock barrel is terrible it's like a 8 or 10 inch barrel. And When you go out to shoot it like you will hit the trigger once and it will fire like 3 shots like in a burst but it's really not good though. And you also only have one mode to go through. And the vilocity after about every 2 times you play you will have to up it back to normal. Which really is not that bad all you have to do is just turn the knob.
Conclusion:
Overall a Really good gun. I would recommened it for sure and to get one you should go on ebay since there not availible anymore.
Spyders, JTs, ACI's, Tippmanns. I've had a chance to try nearly every blowback out there.
Marker Setup:
Black Dragun basic, 32* Nyte Stikk barrel, 9v Revolution, 12oz Co2
Recommended Upgrades:
Barrel and loader
Strengths:
Extremely light trigger pull, balanced design, solid construction and easy operation.
Weaknesses:
Trigger pull may be a little TOO light., stock regulator is weak
Review:
I enjoyed using this gun a lot, it was compact and maneuverable but I could also rip pretty easy on this thing. The cap is only 10bps on the board but I think it was fairly easy to hit that. With a stock barrel the accuracy is sorry, but once you throw a new barrel on there (it almost doesn't matter what kind it is because we tried 3 or 4 different barrels) the accuracy always seems to be good. An agitated/forcefed loader seems to make a remarkable difference because the gun can shoot at such a high speed--gravity loaders weren't cutting it. I enjoyed playing with this gun and I think anybody looking for an entry level marker would as well.
Conclusion:
If your starting out, or maybe even practicing to eventually play in tourny's one day, you'd definitly enjoy this gun.
spyders, imps, timmy, tippys, shockers, any tourney guns
Marker Setup:
VL eVLution II with Y-Board

Pure Energy 72ci 3000psi
Recommended Upgrades:
New Barrel- Id go AA or Progressive
Nitro
Force feed or revy
Strengths:
This thing is very reliable. Shoots Fast, Good Accuracy, Never Chops, Sensitive, Reactive Trigger.
Weaknesses:
Loud, Spyder Clone, Stops shooting after battery barely runsout
Review:
Ok well i dont know what my Black Dragun is, it has an LCD screen but the pic of the Black Dragun LCD isnt what mine looks like.
Overall, this gun is great for the price. Great for intermediate, and advanced players. My friends got me into paintballing and I got the Black Dragun soon after and ruled the field. This gun is great for speedball. I sometimes play in the forest and i was satisfied, I wouldn't reccomend this to snipe in forest though. I would buy this gun!
Conclusion:
I definantly thing you should buy this marker. It is absolutely worth the price. Other guns with the same price just cant compete with it. Good for anyone looking to paintball.

Review:
i got this gun about 6 months ago and i was so excited to get. The same day i went to my backyard and shot some paint. The gun was working perfectly, was shooting pretty fast and no chops at first.. a little alter i started to get a few chops but no big deal. i took it apart and put it together in less than a minute.
Conclusion:
this gun is overall very good, can use some upgrades, but still works very well. I rate this gun a 9 out of 10.

Review:
The gun is a great first gun for beginers and more experince players. It comes with all the parts to proform at a comp. level.
I play on a amateur team and it keeps up with bob longs and angels.
My other gun angel a2 is better but for only 200 dollers the dlack dragun is the best gun out there
Only for in experienced playes the gun is high maitness and leacks often if not cleaned after each play. highly recomended
Conclusion:
This gun is the best buy and can compete at high expectations

Review:
This gun is one of the best i hav ever used with my 3 years of playing, and the price only makes a little nudge in it! This gun is a rocket! It shoots like nothing and you barely have to pull the trigger! I would recommend you to play in open or big areas cause this one shoots em out like real bullets! I would definently say buy this one!
metal trigger, electronic hopper, better bottom line. And if possible a different grips
Strengths:
FAST and Cheap
Weaknesses:
Cheap, sometimes it recocks faster than the balls can get into the breech.
Review:
If you are looking for a cheap marker that will keep up with the rest of the electros then this is it. But I did not like it. I practiced with it daily for at least a month and shot at least 3 or 4 cases of paint through it and it can rock and roll. But it is a glorified Spyder thats all it really is. If you are looking for a electronic marker get a Spyder. And I am not a fan of Spyder's. I sold mine to sir_paint's cousin.
PRICE
1.5mm Trigger
Electronic Safety
Through Grip
Drop Forward
Guage
Upgradeable
Bolt stays in
Weaknesses:
Barrel
Grips
No Dye Stickies for the BD
10 bps cut off
Review:
Nice marker, i would recomend to anyone that does not want to spend gobs of money for a 'high end' electro marker. Colors available are nice, upgrades arent too hard to find, fits spyder barrel threads, all around good mid-level marker. well, i guess they REALLY want me to write alot here, so i will ramble on, mine is blue, which i think is good, looks great with chrome parts on it, i plan on soon getting nitro, blade trigger, new D/F, new Barrel, Reg., and New bolt, hopefully this will all happen soon.
Conclusion:
This marker is great for medium level players, it is fast enough to keep up with some of the 'big dogs' and yet has a great price that makes it available to almost anyone, weekend warrior, or serious tourny player, this marker should be fit for you.
Syder compact 2 in 1. 12 inch barrel,expansion chamber,regulater and gauge
Recommended Upgrades:
barrel
Strengths:
fast shooting
comes with expansion chamber,gauge,regulater
Weaknesses:
nothing really
Review:
I like this gun.My cousin has it and i used it a bit. he gave me the expansion chamber to it so i put that on my spyder and it works great but back to the dragun. Good marker for speed ball, it can keep up with those fast markers. It is a great gun for beginner speed ball and tournemant players. The barrel isn't that accurate so you may want to look into purchasing a longer barrel. Tear drop barrels are perfect for these kinds of markers.
Conclusion:
If you want to play speed ball but do not want to waste money on a 500$ cocker than pick up one of these.
