I owned a Spyder TL plus so this is a big upgrade.
Marker Setup:
Blue BKO
Psycho Ballistics D/F
Male Palmers Stabilizer
Recommended Upgrades:
Drop Forward, Adjustable tank or a good regulator
Strengths:
This gun rips. It's a great upgrade from the spyder i was using. Adjustable trigger which is already light as a feather. Electro-pnuematic operation, so this isn't a seartripper. Very small and light, great for a fast moving game and the gun shoot's as fast as you need it to go.
Weaknesses:
I am running Co2 and my regulator wold not function with a full Co2 tank. to fix the problem i took of the stock reg. and put on my Palmer Stabilizer. Now the gun works like a charm.
Conclusion:
This is a good product, a great upgrade from Spyder's and other low-end semi's. I recommend this for a player looking to enhance there game.
Matrix with Trinity LPR, Aardvark Red Bolt kit, Aardvard 45 Grip frame, Aardvark red, white, and blue stickie grips, Aardvark switch trigger, Enigma red low rise, red back plate, Black CP flame drop forward w/ red asa, 16in Dye Boomstick, and Nitro Duck 90ci 4500 psi
Recommended Upgrades:
4 way, barrel, reg, bolt,
Strengths:
It is a cheaper fully electropneumatic gun. It is nice and compact and fairly light. Like the guy below me said they replaced the 4 way solinoid with a 2 way so it is a little slower and cheaper. For about $60 you can get the 4 way solinoid. IT takes most bushmaster parts so easily upgradeable. They upgraded the bolt and reg from the b2k2. The bolt is fairly good but i recemend a new one. It is fairly accurate and has a good range
Weaknesses:
It is limited to 10 bps but can be changed with the new solinoid. Not sure if it can take the choas chip though, but for many people 10bps is plenty fast enough.
Conclusion:
I higgly recommend to everyone. I had been looking into a new bushmaster for a while then i saw the BKO and immediatly bought it. When you think about it a Spyder AMG is more money but yet it is still a mechanical marker so when you look at the BKO it is a steal for a fully electropneumatic gun. I will be using this gun for years to come.

Stingrays(i cant believe i actually used one) spyders(ok but are really cheaply made) tipy (well made low performance) pirhanas (same as spyders)
Marker Setup:
I am only going by what others are saying
Recommended Upgrades:
nitro, or if you use co2 get a female stabilizer from palmer, they do what an expansion chamber does but the palmer stabilizer does it like 250 times better, so you can run co2 on it without any prob. Barrel, all stock barrels suck so dont take it into consideration
Strengths:
Its like a 2002 bushy only they replaced a very expensive 4 way valve that alows you to shoot very fast with 3, 6 ,and full auto, with a 2 way valve which only alows you to shoot at 10bps in semi auto. And for me that is not a big loss, that is the only difference int he bko and 2k2, ohh and the bko has a better reg and a better bolt, also the bko comes with a blade trigger. This gun performs above and beyond for the price it is sold at. which is 279, it should be like 350-400.
Weaknesses:
well you need nitro or if you want co2 a female palmer stabilizer is needed. Need a new barrel, but thats with every gun , really thats it. Because 10bps to me is great, anymore and i would be throwing away money for paint.
Conclusion:
Great gun for the money, well worth it. never seen such a deal in my life.
Impulse, just as quiet as my BK0, but the BK0 is smaller and lighter
Marker Setup:
Black ICD BK0 with Palmer Stabilizer and macroline
Recommended Upgrades:
Drop forward, Anti-Siphon tank, new barrel, better reg (?), Nitrogen if you want but its not needed
Strengths:
Quiet, Light, Fast, very good and short trigger pull (adjusted trigger when i got it, 1-2 mm pull) I think if you considering and electro spyder you should look into this gun, for the price its a GREAT true electro. Runs great on Co2. Gun is low pressure, runs at 200psi and I have had No ball breaks or chops since Ive had it. The stock bolt is the best bolt for this gun, its delrin and I get absolutely no blowback with my bolt.
Weaknesses:
I havent really found anything bad about this gun, except for a small leak that i had, but it was easily fixed, and that the gun is limited to 10bps but thats no big deal at all either
Conclusion:
A great gun for the price, and for people who want to get into true electros and are on a somewhat of a budget, I love this gun and I will keep this for a long time. And its made by a company you can trust, ICD
