BTW, is there any worse feeling than having a new marker arrive and having forgotten to top off your tanks after the last event....:(

Yes, yes there is.

The first G6R I got. Had paint, had air in the tank (Had even swapped it to LP the week before). Unwrapped the parcel, screwed the barrel on, attached loader, aired up, turned on.... leaks everywhere. To this day I have never seen it shoot more than 10 balls a day. Most annoying purchase ever.

Tinkering ain’t easy
I'll jump on this too, was given a creed to use at a tournament, unwrapped the beautiful box, took the bits out and put the barrel into the gun, attached my tank, aired it up...no leaks.

Off to the chrono with 5 mins to go before my first game, gun only shooting 200fps, wind reg a bit, up it goes to 275fps. Brilliant I thought. Turn air off and head to the field to start.

I walk to the netting, turn my air on and bang the gun explodes, the reg plugs itself 6" into the mud at my feet after breaking my finger that was holding it.

Not a great start to that guns life-in fact it was the end of it. Thankfully it was taken away the same day before it could hurt anyone else.

That's one of the worse Creed stories I've heard in a while. Did you not do the ritual sacrifice at the start of the day?

That being said, I have shot nice creeds. @uther313 's was the best I'd ever shot.
I've had about 5 Creeds. One was terrible, the rest were great!
