I've had mine for a week and put about 600 balls through it with no problem. The build quality is pretty amazing for it's price, it's hella easy to field stip its bolt and hammer assembly, it'll take Spyder accessories, it doesn't have that tacked together from random parts look that comparable Spyders have, it comes in a cool titanium finish, looks way cooler than any Spyder. I'm definitely a satisfied owner, and feel I made the right decision passing over a TL Plus for the Piranha STS. Plus it's good to know that I'm not just another player with a Spyder. The only gripe with the gun I have is that the sight rail is rendered useless by the powerfeed, but that's minor and it's seems to be the norm with pretty much every marker on the market, except maybe a Tippman 98, and it didn't really affect my accuracy with it. In my opinion, you should get it. It's a steal at $150.
