The only upgrade is a longer barell to bee more accurate.
Strengths:
-Good gun
-shoots fast
-theres a gauge on it
-it is accurate
-looks great
Weaknesses:
Almost none theyre is one, the gun can leak easely.
Review:
I have a genesis surge ok then my friend had an mf-1 then he broth it to my house to test it then a try his gun it was almost the same weight then mine tehn i tried shooting with it it worked well the trigger is easy to pull but its long then i shot with it the balls wher not even curving and wher almost always on target with a longer barell you get the best accuracy int the world with this gun , this gun is accurate good balance fast shooting pretty cheap great looking gun the loader is not in the way u can put a scope on it its a tough gun and its 2004 so its everything that a guy wants lol .
Conclusion:
I recomended this gun because its better then other ones and its pretty cheap for a gun of this quality the only bad thing its that it is rare. go buy its a great gun. only one bad thing it can leak at one point but after you repair it your on the good way.

Pretty accurate, only a little recoil, quiet, thin, cool grip
Weaknesses:
Can't shoot out of the box. Lotsa tightening required. Stock barrel is decent.
Review:
Once you get the gun, pull it apart, lube it, and put it back together...Make sure you tighten and clean out EVERYTHING. But don't overtighten anything pertaining to your gas line. I learned this the hard way...One of the screws was so tight, that there wasn't even enough gas to push the hammer back, so the sear wouldn't catch and the gun would keep on burping. So I had to pull it apart on the field. If you get a micro line, trade it in for a mesh. The gun itself can fire pretty accurately, if you put a longer barrel on it. Don't expect to fire really fast, or it'll start burping on you. My guess is that it'll only shoot at about 8bps at best. If you're poor and can snap shoot, than this is a pretty sound investment.
Conclusion:
Good for starters, not a lot of money is needed to bring it up to par. You can really mess people up with it, if you know what you are doing.
new barrel about 16in and 7+1 pod holder and a scope.
Strengths:
Ok stock barell Queit .
Weaknesses:
Not a lot to speak of but it is a little on the heavy side.
Review:
A good gun great for games where you need stealth. once you get a scope you can get a long shot easy. You also dont need a allen wrench to adjust the pressure but you just turn a knob you should get it in all black so it is more stealthe so it is harder to see then another coloer but it does get hot.
Conclusion:
buy very good gun great for sniping and also has good parts and has a drop forward.
tippman 98 custom, spyder custom but didn't have the probelm
Marker Setup:
paradox-no upgrades or accessories
Recommended Upgrades:
new barrel is the only thing id change
Strengths:
ok marker for begginers, good price but for the same price get the rebel extreme
Weaknesses:
micro line leak, barrel sucked, not accurate over 20 feet
Conclusion:
in conclusion, the paradox is a good marker if you buy a new barrel and fix the leak that most paradox have. Also an equal marker of it's price range and even a little better would be rebel extreme
Warning It can break the skin and it will hurt then them little tippmanns .
Weaknesses:
Nothing.
Review:
My brother got the gun when i told him about it at a stor and he bot it and is shoots fast. soo fast it warns you to turn it down and not to aim at shield it could break them and not to shoot closer then 20 feet . i recommend it to eny one.
this was my first gun it was a good gun but i needed a better gun.i use this gun as my back up gun.i got the gun at jaegers subsurface paintball it was a very good gun stock i bought the black one. But my cousin bought the blue one and his gun is not accurate at all. my friend also bought the blue one and it had the same problem. i didnt have a problem with my gun. this gun works very well with CO2. it hardly ever chops but when it does the bolt seems to stick and dosent want to comeback out. this really made me mad because i was in the middle of a game when it did this and i couldnt cock the bolt so i had to sit that game out which always sucks.
Conclusion:
this gun works well and performs well hardly ever chops and works well with CO2. just what ever you do dont get the blue gun!
