Well I am finally retiring the beloved Angel. She has been good to me for so many years. But after shooting a Vice I was dead set on it. Mostly the weight was what sold me. The Angel feels like a brick now a days. The pics were rushed so forgive me. I will have better ones at the field tomorrow.

Edit: I got some pics of her in action. One of my buddies took these with his nice set up. In the first pic i'm switching hands if you wondering  what I was doing.

Basically the quality and speed of a regular timmy. But way cheaper. $550 for the protege, $750 for the vice. In all honesty, I liked shooting this better than the new Ego8's and DM8's. And have heard nothing but good about them.

It looks nice, but the open slots are annoying to me.

I like the black, i saw some of the other colors, and for some reason they look best in black.

tippmann-playa: It's a JT proflex

Ilford Rule- I have played with cockers and rainmakers. Both are a blast to shoot, just outdated

Meanman- Yeah I like the black (hardest color to get). I just wish it was flat black.

Black looks good because it hides the hideous milling.
