A m8 of mine has got a demo version of this marker from Austria and did it rip and was it light :p, I used it and was emptying a hopper in 10-15 seconds and I am not one for speed firing I mean a punter could do that speed, but I read a reply a few weeks back saying that this marker has its problems.

I saw "beaker" saying this on a thread about them.

OK (and only OK) on the first shoot, but soooo many problems with long term ownership. plus they are bouncy as hell, and VERY hard to get legal yet still quick.
Does any one else have these sorts of problems and what are people’s opinions of them?

well there were 2 of our new blood squad using them at CC and as far as I am aware even the CC chrony judges didnt get them to bounce!
And they still rip!

So from my experience, no problems :)

Mac Dev cyborg - my god are these things fast - used one at the last darford 7's, annihilated quake with it. now then about 20 different peeps tried to make it bounce and they cudn't - even doug from the love that can usually make anything bounce. it may have just been my trigger setup but it was impossible to make bounce and damm are they fast

they just make alot of mess with brittle paint, may have been the reloader forcing the balls pass the detents tho, unsure

it does seem to be that way,

i dont no if you notice PaintballBudgie but someone at KOTH (2day) on team AKA was using one. He didn't seem to get any problems with it.

When a certain chrony judge at CC wouldn't let my "bouncy" cocker on the field one of my team mates came to the rescue with a Cyborg, the judge then spent half a hopper trying to make it bounce, but couldn't (f**k you)

I then played with one for the full second day at CC, light and fast, standard match stick barrel was pretty good with zap amp paint, used an evil pipe and the groupings were spot on. Used a Egg with Z board so can't comment on any Halo pushing paint past detent probs.

shot plenty of fools, no problems, no chops, simple to clean.


lastly, Thanks to Matt g, and Andy g for the loan of your Cyborgs.
