The Wrath is designed to deliver top level performance at a reasonable cost. With its 20 ball per second cycling rate, the Wrath is one of the fastest markers available at any price. The Vise Grip Feed Neck, Quik-Strip bolt, vertical foregrip regulator, ported barrel and high speed air-ram operation are all features usually found only on much pricier markers or only through a great deal of after-market expense. We believe that the affordability of a reliable, feature packed marker will improve your playing experience and winning percentage. Unleash your Wrath!

| Marker Setup: |
Diablo Wrath 30BPS board-egg, 68/45, all stock
Commando 3- Same Egg, Stock barrel, Regulator |
 |
Recommended Upgrades: |
Barrel if the field you play at has larger paintballs. If you have the money get all the delrin replacement parts "less kickback" and obviously faster. Dropforward if you're into that, I use tank like a stock |

 |
 |
 |
| Strengths: |
Fast, good accuracy, rarely chops, ease of use |
 |
| Weaknesses: |
The barrel is bored small, but toxic runs fine |

| Review: |
I got this gun about a month ago and I love it. The board on mine is adjustable from 4-30 bps. You can set the debounce on it, I recommend 10ms, doesn't trigger bounce and won't miss a pull.
I have seen many ions, and none of them rip faster than this. Also the ease of getting to the bolt and airhammer on this is uncomparable to an ion. I can strip my whole gun faster than an Ion can get to it's firing chamber, then try to open that without a strapwrench, goodluck.
I was outshooting my egg with ease. From what I heard people have problems with the trigger being too far from the handle, from the solenoid being so large. Lucky me, I have big hands. I thought the Ion's trigger was too close and compact. I don't have any problem with kickback, then again I play a 68/45 so the weight kills kickback.
The accuracy is good, but I went from a commando 3 to this, so I'm used to really great accuracy. The ion at the field that day was being shot by a pretty bad shot that had never lubed his bolt, so I can't compare accuracy.
Only problem I have found is with the small barrel, but pay the extra 5-10 bucks for toxic or premium, breaks more consistantly on target anyways. LUBE YOUR BOLT, seen to many retards not do it and then wonder why their bolt sticks. Just because you don't technically have to, doesn't mean you shouldn't.
Whenever I get the money I will be buying a boomstick, Halo and all of the delrin parts. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I would recommend this gun over an Ion or BKO. If you have "small hands", Ion would be the best bet for you. |

| Review: |
I have used this gun for a long time. I loved it when I first got it, who didn't? Soon I grew away from it. Used it and it tore people apart at the field. Shoots very great and consistant. I didn't have to break the reg in at all. Out off the wall at the pro-shop was shooting fairly well with the stock board with a force fed hopper. But it didn't satify me at all. So, I put a Virtue in it and from there on it was set for life. Nothings perfect though. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I wouldn't have gotten it. If I had the option to go back and get something else boy would I. You may disagree with me but w/e it's my opinion. Virtue with this owns. |

| Review: |
I think anyone should buy this gun because it is very reliable and with the right type of paint in the gun the paint will not chop.I bought this gun from a local paintball store on sale for a great price. I have seen this gun around $300+ but at this store they only asked $180. I said that was and I bought the gun. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
If you want a reliable for a decent price then I suggest to buy this gun. |

| Review: |
I have owned the Diablo Wrath for about a year now and realized for the amount of money i put into it, it was a POS. The trigger frame and the solenoid( the large bulb like metal cylinder at the top of the frame) are trash. The manufacturers did a terrible design making the frame and the solenoid. No other gun is constructed like this except a Dragun( i think). I put in a AC bolt and Ram, New T-board, CP on/off and then had to replace the lp valve and solenoid because they broke. Another thing the customer service is terrible for National Paintball. I sent my solenoid in to have it replaced and they told me they replaced it but it still had a little mark on it that i gave it to make sure they replaced it...they lied to me...wow nice customer service National Paintball you jerks. I even called them up to see if it was a mistake and they said "no we replaced it it is prolly your board. I tried it in both my stock board and T-borad just to make sure. The solenoid did not respond in either just like before i sent it away. I sold my Wrath and got a B2K4 w/PDS because although it is a 04 model it got good reviews and i did lot of research. The B2K4 is amazing. The stock performance is about 3x as good as a wraths stock performance. And it cheaper!!! |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Honestly when i got the Wrath i was so happy but now i realized how bad it is. Im not bashing the Wrath like stupid Ion owners cause i hate ions too...but the wrath needs alot of work to make it good. Get a B2K4 w/PDS.....it ripps! And for $230 + CP reg it was a steal. |

| Review: |
When I first got this I was really excited for an upgrade from my mag. I went to my field and got some air and tested it, it shot fast and had great accuracy the first time I shot it. The second time I decided to clean it before using it, it tooke me 2 hours to get the front LPR and back ram cap attachments back on and the rear trigger frame screw stripped. After I got it aired up again the solenoid blew out and so did the cup seal. When I was trying to fix the cup seal by taking the ram cap off the back ram cap attachment broke off into the ram cap. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Breaks easily, annoying to field strip, good speed and accuracy. 3 out of 10 since this is the second time diabloe royally screwed me. |

 |
Recommended Upgrades: |
barrel kit first, then change the board if you can shoot over 12bps cause it cant keep up |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Strengths: |
Gotta say its def. cheap to begin w/ and very easy to use. |
 |
| Weaknesses: |
Trigger play, board unable to keep up, stock bolt and ram are too heavy. |
 |
| Review: |
Gun is a decient one for someone new to the sport, offers many top end marker features (break-beam eyes, clampin feed neck, top quality high pressure regulator.)
This gun is def. one of the easiest guns ive used to set up, but simply has too many problems. 50 word minimum. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
By the time this gun is comparable to any high end markers youve already had to spend about $300 in upgrades. So simply save your money, time and the hastle and look at the real high end markers for $600 or so. |

 |
| Weaknesses: |
Shoots great for about 2000 balls until it fails. |
 |
| Review: |
I sent it back 2 times and it still isn't fixed. The CO2 doesn't run through the gun after a few hundred balls the 2nd time I used it. I have to send it back in now to get it fixed again and I'm going to switch to an Ion because this gun gave out on both times in the middle of speed ball matches, only resulting in me getting either bunkered or getting shot about 7 times. BAD GUN!! purchase with caution. Don't buy it online... that way if it breaks you can turn it back in. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I would give this gun a 0 but the site only allows a 1. |
