Review:
At first i got the gun and I froze it from co2
so i was scared but later on the gun unthawed
after that the gun has worked flawlessly
i love the gun i would recommend it to anyone who doesnt have the money to buy an epiphany.
the gun does need a new barrel and the firebolt works amazing in it
if anyone has any questions ask me or a smart parts rep. in pbnation
Conclusion:
i would buy it again in a heartbeat the gun is light and shoots fine stock
this gun is great and will be greater when upgrades come out.
Get it is all i have to say
I got this gun used off ebay and used it in a game and loved it. This gun is cheap and can get 11 to 15 bps. You need to get a better hopper that feeds faster. I thought the gun was quite and light weight. I would ajust triggerand feed neck
Conclusion:
This gun is for beginners or some one looking for a good gun cheap

Ilove this gun its small which is perfect for me since i run the snake

i shot about 1000 balls the first day and didnt chop once
does not need any upgrades to play
but there really isnt any out anyway
Conclusion:
I love this gun it feels great on the field
if ur looking for a gun cheap and good look into a vibe
Price, "Bolt-Out-The-Back" design, size and simplicity.
Weaknesses:
It is an Air Hog. Trigger Pull needs work.
Review:
You cannot beat the price and it's very simple to maintain.
If you want to play tournaments and hardcore speedball, then get an Ion/Shocker/DM/Ego or whatever. This is a great recreational gun for the price.
For under $150 you have a gun that is enough for how most people play.
The only upgrade I will say is a barrel.
Conclusion:
If you're new to the sport, buy this gun and save a lot of money. Spend it on paint and learn how to aim. Buy a better gun next year if you need to.
For the experienced players, this is not a bad gun. Maybe something to give to a friend that you brought to play, or as a good backup to the recreational player.
