This is the lightest bolt on the market. It weighs in at 13.6 grams. Less than half of the weight of the stock bolt, and about half the weight of most of the other after market bolts. Even lighter than the nano which weighs in at 17.3 (23 with delrin back).
It has the latest mods, shaved rib cage for better airflow, milled out center to lighten it, larger holes for better airflow. Basically its a version 2 of the lightning bolt, way lighter.
Due to the super lower weight of the L6, your gun will have the least amount of kick of any gun. This bolt will literally make your Ion the smoothest shooting gun on the market.This means that your gun will have virtually no kick with each shot. Its really quite amazing to feel. Your friends will envy you.
You can really hardly feel the gun shoot. With any other gun, when you shoot at anything over 3 balls per second, the gun shakes quite a bit with each shot. The more the gun shakes the less accurate it is.
We have designed our bolt to have the least amount of kick possible by making it the lightest and the most gas efficient.
Another aspect of a bolt that not many people think about is internal o-ring drag. We all know that the orings need to fit snuggly against any part in order to create a good air seal. We have designed the L6 to have the least amount of internal o-ring drag possible without having leaks.

Review:
When i ordered this bolt, i went to Hogans Valley (meriden pb store) to have it installed. They have never seen a bolt like this, they were honored to try out the gun with the new bolt. When i tried it the bolt was performing amazing and sitll is. Absolutely no kick, very light, and i got over 300 shots extra from the bolt.
Conclusion:
Deffinatly worth your money. Its very reliable and will not fail you. If you are still looking for a bolt stop now and buy the L6, trust me its perfect.
i definately hopped on the ion bandwagon, but before it was a bandwagon you see...
Strengths:
EVERYTHING! I know that sounds crude but is the plain and simple truth.
Weaknesses:
absolutely nothing. The only weakness is taht you dont already ahve one in ur gun
Review:
thats it , its amazing buy it love it and smoke some 1000 dollar guns with ur ion thats all ther is.
My ion is no where near stock, The only stock component rifht now is the board and the firing can, but its still an ion and it shots greatthats it.
This bolt makes everything about the ion better. It shoots smoother, quiter, lithter, and more efficiently.
The customer support i called to order it and ended up talking to the guy for like 45 minutes about everythign paintball related.
All in all with this bolt i can hoenstly say that my ion shoots as smooth as any other marker available right now
Conclusion:
If you want your ion to feel more like something "high end" and more effiecient quiter and smoother then dont wait any more order this bolt

Review:
The bolt is great. I cant feel any kick when i shoot and it seems like i can play and my air wont hardly move. I haven't got to check my air/paint ratio with a 72/4500 xfire, yet but i do know that it has increased by a lot. Super easy instillation, just take your gun apart then swap bolts out then install the L6.
Conclusion:
Great bolt, smooth, sleek, light, and just an all around good bolt. If you have the money to spare, go ahead and get this bolt.

Review:
When i got my package in the mail i thought it was empty, but in side was the lightest, prettiest, bolt i have ever seen, crasftmanship on this is very nice, i never noticed the weight of the stock bolt till i held the L6.
with the combination of the Techt L6 and my 360QVE, my air efficency has increased.
the installment went with ease.
what would be real nice is if this company was to send a bit of lube with this bolt...
Conclusion:
If you want to save air, increase your cycle rate do go buy this bolt
