I have got a pmi tracer and the only upgrade i have on my gun is a remote which i mite ad this is a great gun
Strengths:
easy to get the tubes out
co2 stays secure when strapped in
paint has never broken in these tubes before
feels great around the waste
Weaknesses:
the only thing tht i dont like about this pack is that it sticks out just a little bit for when you play make sure your pack doesnt stick out other than that it will probably be my best pack ever
Conclusion:
my conclusion is that it turned out a little bit bigger than i acpected but it is the coolest looking best feeling pack you will ever get
Not too much into variety when it comes to a harness, what ever works works.
Marker Setup:
Black Dragun - Dye Xcel 14" & CMI Tru-Flight 14" (had extra cash wanted to see what rifled barrels were all about myself first hand -shrug-). Spyder Venturi bolt.
Strengths:
Well when it comes to harnesses, only thing I will actually preach about is this... "is it affordable?" and "is it durable?"
In that case the Ronin Gear 4+1 harness is both. Its not as ridiculously expensive as alot of the other crap thats out there. I'm merely writing this review for the new guys out there. DON'T LISTEN TO WHAT OTHER PEOPLE TELL YOU! Some guys might try to convince you to buy a certain harness. Truthfully, you may not even need a harness, though you may want one, it helps to have extra ammo on hand if you're in the center of a fire fight. So long as it houses atleast 4 100rnd pods, and can house 1 co2 tank, or an extra pod, then its good to go. If you want a harness, get this, only get something that houses more if you're extremely trigger happy. In that case then I don't think any harness will help you, you'll run out of rounds anyway. =P
Weaknesses:
With all harnesses, they ristrict your movement slightly, and feel goofy on you since they add bulk. I suggest fanny pack style harnesses for people who crawl around and like to dive forward. If you like to roll and such then don't be surprised to feel the pain of your harness's contents punching into your body.
Conclusion:
Its not a neccessity to have in paint ball. It just helps you out if you want more ammo, but adds bulk to your body and trust me when I say every inch of your body is a target so you want the least bulk. I use this harness mainly because its cheap and durable and houses just enough extra ammo for myself. I gave it a 10 rating for price, durability, and adjustability, one size fits all and its not hard to adjust, even easier to ditch if you want to take it off and make a run at a bunker and you don't want to be slowed down, but still remains on and won't come off unless you want it to.
- it is cheap, only $20 with tubes
- it feels sturdy, doesnt bounce
Weaknesses:
- it sticks out a little far on the sides which can make you a bigger target but if you know it is there you can get around it
Conclusion:
this is a good harness for what you pay for. I am amazed that people who arent sponsored can go on a field and afford to shoot anymore than a 4+1 harness. Works well, its cheap, go get one.
its cheap and fits ok for the type it is and if your going to have you have to get a remote for it 100 rnd tupes fit nice but get much bigger and they dont fit in as well .........
Weaknesses:
it moves around alot and after most games i cant wait to take it off but when you need some paint and the the tank off the gun its great ..............
Conclusion:
for the money i would buy it again its a great one for a first pack its super tuff my friend had a 32 one and it broke all to rat crap ...........
-Tubes and 20oz tank fit snugly
-relatively compact
-you can tie a squeegie to the triangular shoulder-strap rings
-doesn't look cheap
-pretty comfortable
-affordable
Weaknesses:
-the two velcro straps are almost useless, because there is very little velcro surface on the tank pouch
-unlike in a half-pack, the tubes stick out the sides, making you a larger target
-waist strap could be more padded
Conclusion:
The 4 + 1 performed extremely well through an afternoon of indoor paintball. When I played, I almost forgot that I had it on! Going remote has made me a better player.
it is cheap (like 20 bux with 4 100 round tubes!!!)
it works good (hasn't failed me yet)
looks fine
holds plenty of paint and a tank
fits snugley
not too bulky or heavy
holds the balls and tank very well and they don't fall out or move around
Weaknesses:
Nothing
although it may not last as long as some other ones but i haven't had it very long and nothing has happened to mine yet so that is just a speculation
This is not a huge pack, its light, comfortable, and holds enough paint for any player. Also the spare tank is really useful and has saved my life.
Weaknesses:
Don't get me wrong its a great pack to have but if you shot paint like a mad-man then you may find yourself out of paint before the end of your match.
Conclusion:
I find this pack to be great and easy to use, a must have for any player looking for speed, comfort, and affordability in a pack. I don't think i'll ever buy another pack.
good pack for the price. I'm kidda a bob long kidda guy (kinda big) I was happy, it wasn't to tight.
Weaknesses:
it says it can hold 140 tubes. I don't see it that way. it would be better if you bought 100 tubes. 140 barely fit. To get a 20 ozer to stay in it kinda a trick. you have to tie the velco strips in a knot round the tank. with 12 ozs you can use the velcro as shown.
Conclusion:
its 20 bucks and comes with 4 colored Fat boy 140 round tubes
Rating:
9 out of 10
