The thing that pissed me off about WDP is the bolt problem (sits about 3-4mm back from the breach) that was only fixed in the G7, yet people had been complaining about it since the LCD. And everytime they brought out a new marker they said the problem was fixed (which is wasnt).

You wont find any older angel shooting decent paint like chronic without chopping mad style.

+ the "lazer eyes" are so small that when you get a break in the breach (dont lie it happens) it clogs the holes and instantly nocks you into eye bypass mode. Then to fix this you have to remove the eyes which is a brutal procedure at best.

sticking an allen key in the breach and pushing so hard your worried about imbedding it in your finger when it comes out the other side.

what fun...


Seriously though if you get a chop in 99% of other markers, the eyes will last the rest of the game.

9/10 in the angels ive shot with factory fitted eyes, the eyes bypass after a single break.

The bolt issue is really no problem, unless your halo isnt setup properly.

Take any angel, add a newton kit and set it up properly and it loses its capability to break paint.
It becomes the most gentle gun on paint next to a LVLX mag.

I know because I have been given chronic paint from a pro team, as it wouldnt go through their guns (not a signle ball would leave the barrel).

When I used it, I didnt break a ball in my Ir3, yes its heavily modded gun but it still has the same rotobreach with the same roll back.

Once you have other issues sorted (pressure driving the bolt, ball detents, eye delay) you realise rollback will never be the cause of breaking paint on its own.




Regarding the eyes, I cant argue.

Frontmandan have you seen how much roll back you get on an EGO? Let me tell you that its way more than you get on any Angel. If someone has an Ego why dont they take a pic and post it on here.
