This marker needs an electronic grip, action needs to be smoothed by reducing the weight of some of the internal components, limited upgradability is a really big problem with this gun. For how heavy it is it doesn't perform all that well.
Strengths:
It looks cool, but then so does the SP-8 or an upgraded Tippmann
Weaknesses:
Weight of the moving parts, very loud, and not all that accurate
Review:
This gun handles a lot like the SP-8 in terms of usability and feel. What it lacks is the SP-8's fit and finish. Even with the standard barrel you can barely hear the SP-8 firing. This thing literally booms. For the money, there are a number of much better markers out there, including autocockers, the innumerable variations of the Tippmann markers, the SP-8, and the Armotech style markers.
Conclusion:
If you really want the realistic feel of a scenario marker, get an Armotech or SP8. This gun does feel like it is well manufactured but it's just not as capable as a lot of the other options out there. The G36 mod for the A-5 looks just as good and performs better, and the SP-8 has this thing beat all hollow. This thing is way too expensive for what you're getting.
