Great thing this is coming out. With this and the M5 coming, the price of a DM3 will drop even more. Haha, now i can finally buy one! ------------- http://tippmann.com/players/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=126701&PN=3 - Oh yes i did. |

u mean a dm4? anyway, its just a dm4 milled a lttl different and it prolly has some different programming. oh yah, i hate companys that make copies of other ppl products. proto is just a cheap dye. and then all those ppl that make cheap fake cockers, tha pisses me off. ------------- NYX Tri Fade #227 <Removed 570kb avatar.

I'm not totally sure I beleive it just yet.... But the more I look at it, the more it seems to grow on me. I kinda like the look or the eye covers and the milling, the only thing I don't really like is how they moved the LPR to the front again, instead of having it in the back like on the DM4. That and it looks a little taller, but oh well, I'll go ahead and say I'd shoot it. ------------- "Yes there are two path you can go back, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on"

I would like to have seen a style different then the existing DM4. This servers as much purpose as the Nerve or Octane compared to the Shocker. ------------- meformod.

I think it looks tite.... id rock it. EDIT** Heh.... I just realized that in l33t the title, if they stick with the dm4's title(which would be pm5) spells PMS..... they should make a pink one to comomerate this. -------------

Its enclosed inside the gun. The gun uses the opend bolt operation but the bolt is compleatly enclosed within the body of the gun so its not visible unless you take the bolt out. -------------
