First off, let me say I'm very impressed with this Smart Parts on this. Came in a nice box, with a way better manual than the Shocker one. Comes with all the tools you need, and a few extra o-rings and barrel condom. The gun looks great, I'm loving the ninja look mine has going. The trigger is kinda long outta the box, but I havn't adjusted it yet. I've got fast fingers, so I could max out the board even with a long pull. The trigger is very light, and snaps back into place very quick which is nice. I was pretty surprised, the stock feedneck has o-rings inside that fit my sanded Halo very snugly, it ain't going no where, so I won't bother buying a new neck. The gun itself is tiny, just like a Shocker, only weights a little more, but you can't tell with a tank and Halo on anyways. The reg makes a good feeling fat grip, so that's a plus. The only thing I think it definantly needs is a Uni-Mount, the duckbill ASA makes the tank sit far back and feels kinda long. I aired it up, no leaks, that's good. Filled my Halo, and went out and let it rip. It shoots pretty fast, but I'm used to a lot faster so to me 17 bps feels painfully slow. But the gun does exactally what it says. The eyes seemed to work good, I didn't break a ball, and it didn't dry fire at all. Stock barrel shoots fine, I might not bother replacing it at all. Again, no breaks, and I was shooting crappy dimpled 2 month old paint, and it's snowing outside to give you an idea of the tempurature.

All in all I'm happy with it. If it keeps shooting like it just did, it'll be a great back up, and a hell of a starter tourny level gun for anyone.


Now for the good stuff:

The Shocker was definantly nicer, and a lot faster, but this is still a good gun. Shocker is better, but you get what you pay for. And I'm feeling the black, and the deciding factor on color was black is all that's in stock at Punishers.

This is the first time in a while that I want a Smart Parts gun. They look very nice, but I don't think I'm ready to part with my barely used BKO yet.
