I'll let you know when I've shot them back to back. The Empire does seem to have a slightly heavier pump stroke, but this is simply down to springing rather than pump mechanism. The fairly stiff pump return spring doesn't help, which could be ditched at the expense of blowback when using hitman to pump. I'm sure with lighter springing it would be damn close to a CCM's for feel. I sweet spotted inline reg at 240psi input, and got a solid 285 +/- 3fps with Sterling Mace on the .685" bore barrel. This was with the IVG almost backed right out, so I think there's scope to try a slightly softer hammer spring.How smooth is that AT Gee Tee? Compared to a CCM one?
No mine was supplied by LIPS - they may still have a few in stockGee Tee did you get this directly from empire? or elsewhere?
No still have the Mag pump but yet to see the field with either of the markers!!!!!!!!!!!!!Well add me to the list of owners now but I will not be back for a few months yet so will have to be a bit till I get out to play with any of you again.
Wiggles! You replaced my mag pump already? Did you even use it in a game?
