nope their wont be, its just PMR and SLG this year no pm line.

from my opinion i beleive the reason was that the PM8 (in my opinion) was a fantastic marker and was easily on par with the DM's.

so with it been cheaper takes away sales on DYEs top gun :)

my thoughts on it.

Tommy G's reply to a very similiar post

That’s one of the silliest things i have ever read.. Both brands are under the same umbrella, and with that in mind DYE has done everything to make sure that both brands excel at their targeted price points. Ultimately a DYE or Proto sale is irrelevant aslong as one of either brands are supported. It is all about focus of development.

DYE are still selling the PM8 and the pricing on that hasn't changed as it is an unreal amount of gun for that money. The DM9 is performing and selling incredibly well at its price point also.
DYE are committed fully to making this industry thrive, through our dealers, events and players; Putting more time and money than any other companies into R&D of fresh, exciting and ground breaking products. Hopefully people will be able to see this from the 2009 line ups already. Especially with the economy as it is, that has proved very rare in this industry for the new season, as most companies are shrinking back in for survival by saving money on the R&D side.
 
most of which is nonsense spangley. that sort of information you cant get to hand thus is not able to cunjer up those sort of points about investments in r&d as such because the companies dont really release that information.

eclipse will have clearly spent more money on R&D with the sompletely new internals to the 09 and with the release of the geo.

my opinion is that dye havent released a PM because it will be near exact to the DM thus not having that much difference(apart from price tag and software). theyve made the DM smaller by making the bolt fater. im sure the marker will be awsome as ill be shooting one this year but these are the facts
What Andy? I work for DYE.. Im sure like yourself, I have no idea what Eclipse spent on gun R&D, so i wouldn't ever want to conjure up anything.

That comment made previously on another forum about investment wasnt refering to just our current DM, but to our gun and product ranges as a whole. That includes the Rotor, I4 Goggles and or mid range Proto markers.
