Ego 10???

[Missy-Q]

.....man, its a shame I missed all that drivel from the other Ego10 thread. I always miss out on the fun stuff. If the only way someone can make their gun appear to be good is to try to make all the others appear to be crap, then they're a moron.
However,
The 10 ego seems nice, and is keeping up with modern trends, which is a must. I'm sure plenty will get sold.

Missy Q, i would like to know how in the other closed thread anybody made any marker seam "good"?

Do you mean their was 'created' truths etc? The reason the last thread was closed was because a personal disagreement happened, not because a specific fact of supremacy between markers?

It would be great if you could give a 'over the pond' opinion or your personal opinion on the ego 10. Opinions like this will make this thread much better, not the fact that a couple of members have a personal grudge or argument.

Hope you dont take this the wrong way, its just the original thread was full of really good info and opinions until it was closed instead of cropped

Cheers

The bolt is perfectly safe, have you ever seen when to much oil is used and the bolt jumps out? The pin pops up and the bolt stays put. My guess is planet thought about this years ago and has anyone ever heard of such a thing happen?

Happened to a marshal while cronoing my gun, the rammer kept moving and eventually made the bolt move, but the pressure was lost so rapidly it could just about get a ball out the barell and the bolt could not manage to get out of the rammer housing.

I wonder how fast the bolt actually moves?

The bolt moves as fast as the rammer I suppose, I have put my thumb the wrong side of the feedneck a few times when getting up out the snake and yeah it moves fast enough to feel the pinch.

Nothing huge there, just a few tweaks. I like the valve inserts idea, but personally I've never had an issue with macroline and feel as though they're pandering to style demands. Rechargeable battery, push-pull housing release, usb updates all good, but all been done already. So really they're just keeping up with what'sben going on, much the same as the mac noid has been adopted by other brands. Good stuff as always, Planet have always made an awesome product so it's good to see them tweaking it to keep it up to date.

I hope the rechargeable battery is like mp3 batteries, where you just plug it in to your PC and it charges. That way, I'd actually remember to charge it ! I'm not so sure about the 'no-macro' line bit though. I've never had an issue with macro lines, so I don't know whether not having one is going to make a difference.

The bolt is perfectly safe, have you ever seen when to much oil is used and the bolt jumps out?

Yup but that was also to with the person not putting their bolt back in properly.

If Tom can integrate the current T bar ASA system, then I think that will make it the first COMPLETELY continuously adaptable gas through grip ASA. That's the biggest thing for me and it's not even that big.
