Review:
Alright, my buddy and me got done reading all of these Brass Seagull hate reviews, and we (being the newbs we were a few years back) went to Wal-Splart to buy and try a Blade to see if it was really so horrible. We were between surprised and unsurprised that it completely sucked right out of the plastic box; which, by the way, cut my hand pretty good while opening.
Here's what happened:
We went into the back yard with some Draxxus Rec balls and 12-grams to shoot some cans off the fence. We aired up the Blade, loaded it with some paint, and pumped a single time before it began leaking and a ball rolled out of the barrel. We kinda had a quick laugh before using some tape to close up the leak.
Well this time it didn't leak, but its suckiness reincarnated itself in extreme innaccuracy and inconsistency. We shot atleast 10 times, balls flying in all directions, and the ones that would hit would either leave loud 'CRACK!' sounds on the cans, or weak 'plink' sounds. Of course, being the daring devils we were at the time, we decided to test fire it on ourselves to see what it would feel like.
Well, I stood there for twenty million years until my friend finally hit me after firing 3 hoppers worth of paint (mini hoppers). It hardly hurt at all; in fact, I was wondering if the FPS was any higher than 170. When he hit me again 8 shots later, however, it was excruciating, like a marble flew out of the barrel. I had a nasty welt on the side of my stomach that looked like someone slapped me with a burning hammer or something.
Well, an hour and several broken balls and wasted 12-grams later, we decided we'd have some fun at a local field. We bet one of the local tournament backplayers in our city that he couldn't hit anyone further away than 10 feet with it. If he could, we would pay him $20. If he couldn't, he would have to pay us each $10 and as well give us his sister's phone number. He agreed.
During that round, not only did he never come close to hitting anyone, the marker exploded with a huge POW when he went to dive and it hit the ground. Blue shards got stuck in the bunker he was diving at, and the whole field started roaring with laughter.
Not only did we get a date with his sis and $10 a piece, he was referred to as, for months, 'Brass Fail'.
Conclusion:
Only get it if you want to prove to yourself that it's terrible. It should not be used in seriousness, not even for $20.
