This gun from what I've seen is a great gun. It is lighter than most timmy's and is very fast. It's not really that different from other timmy's but it still rips. I love the milling on this gun. It beats all the other timmy's on its milling. A barrel and a feedneck would be the upgrades i suggest. It is extremely air efficient too. I shot 2 pods through it and only used up 200 psi. That is one huge advantage it has over other timmy's.
Conclusion:
Overall a great gun. There are only a few upgrades needed on this gun. Not that much different from other timmy's but still a good gun.

Review:
My review of the Onyx is it was well taught out. Its good to see BOB LONG wip out another grate Marker. I do wish the Trigger was taught out like the rest of the marker. Having the 4 eye set up is the way to go on the Onyx. If you get the standard eyes the marker is still ONE BAD MOTHER TRUCKER!!!!!
I shot almost all type of timmies and none of the markers similar to Onyx

Review:
I got this Onyx from trade in Pbnation.com... I'm sure glads that I got this gun because it pretty simple. Kinda remind me like Shocker/DM/PM bolt kit but I like the designs of this Onyx better. It shoots rope and always on target. I'm glads to be in Bob Long's gangs because I don't want to shoots another guns.
Conclusion:
If you shoots timmy and want the '07 Bob Long, GO FOR THE ONYX and you will have a happy life ever.

Weaknesses:
In the time tested I had a hard time finding anything I didn't like
Review:
I tried it out at a local field and i was amazed the first thing i noticed was the speed and incredible look of it. one of the most a mazing things about the onyx is the eye system which times the rate that your paint is dropping into the marker and then times the bolt to the speed of the paint meaning virtually no paint breaks.
Conclusion:
In my opinion the onyx is the top of the line marker for 06-07
