Is the psyco ballistics lightning deluxe any good?  Id think about putting a cp reg on it, and maybe in a couple of months or so an e1.

what do you think about them?  And can you make the thing that connects the reg straight instead of 15*

And why is there such a difference in these to products? http://www.888paintball.com/Shop/Control/Product/fp/vpid/149 4695/vpcsid/1069758/SFV/30842/order/asc/order_by/title

for some reason one with a halo is $40 cheaper, am i not reading something right? or is the picture on the one not right?

I haven't heard too many good things about Psychoballistics guns (none, actually.) So maybe you should look around some more.

Most of the complaints about PB guns are from Autococker owners who dislike PB (and ANS, and System X, and everybody else) for making ripoff cockers.  So take those comments with a grain of salt.

That said, there does appear to be a consistent thread of complaints about quality control and manufacturing flaws in PB products.  And in a (quasi-)autococker, there are no minor flaws.

So beware.

Well here's what my friend had to replace on his lightning just to get it working out of the box:

Pneumatics
Valve
HP reg
Cocking rod
Actuating rod
Pump arm

Yea, they're money pits.
