Thoughts on the Etha?

[olliewidd]

Ive bought myself an Etha and was wondering what people thought of it, its good points and bad points

 

[Andy Steele]

Great marker, probably the best and most reliable marker in that price range. Aimed at the scenario market. It is however cut out to play any format of the paintball world

I used one for about 3 or 4 games yesterday at CPPS and was nicely surprised on the performance of it, For that price range its a great marker. Felt comfortable to use and really quick to shoot.

Yeah I picked one up yesterday too and played with it all day. It was awesome.

Very Good for the price

Just doesn't have a very strong feedneck. One of the guys snapped his feedneck clean off yesterday while playing snake

funny you say that, Ledz managed to break his this weekend too!
Can't argue that it is one serious bit of kit that is hard as nails for the money you pay. I've seen some crazy tests on this gun including launching it down a gravel path and dropping it in streams. having shot it, it's relatively smooth and they are actually silent guns to have shot at you, which is always a good thing.

The only thing I did notice mate was that when i cranked the velocity to anything above 260/270 i got a leak from the bolt. Is that normal?? Didnt really matter because at 260 it was plenty enough for the field but I was just wondering

 

[Tony Harrison]

I don't think it's normal and I didn't know about it - it is probably just an o-ring that needs changing.
