Ok heres my review, after shooting and handling both:

DM5.

Pros.

Fast as you can shoot
Light weight
smaller than the DM4
accurate
good customizable settings and trigger
Good looks, flawless anno, and milling
quiet
tight spread from 50 ft.
the degas knob/system
feels great to hold
The light<<<my personal favorite>>>
miscellaneous i.e. lube

Cons:

efficiancy(sp?) isnt that great
if you use a hi-pressure tank it does kick a fair bit
depending on your tank size it does become long
it came with bad eyes and poor wiring
EVERYTHING needs an allen key(it come with a set though)
... next to impossible to feild strip, so dont chop

$1399 usd

SONIC CYBORG.

Pros.

Light weight
accurate
as fast as you can shoot
efficiancy
trigger easily customized
simple
stripping and lubing takes 5 mins
velocity adj. done through the LPR *no allen key needed*
quality is good
NO kick
quiet
filters and setting changed easily through the DIP switches

Cons.

anno quality is poor
few stores that carry them
manuel is simple
trigger moves side to side
hard to keep the fingerprints off

&1250 usd

Overall these are both very nice guns, so if your looking into a high-end guns of of these would be the two to chose from. Enjoy.

Cool... Maybe if more people had a rewiew on products then you could get this sticked and have anyone who has a review post in it...
It's an idea.

the forums should have a dedicated reviews section, seperated by manufacturer, and then by gun

and a b/s/t section too

I'd rather get a cyborg cause everyone gets a dm5 and it gets boring. Be unique, plus its a good gun.

yeah but then if somebody ripped someone else off on here then they could possibly sue tippmann.

No, all a mod has to do is have a sticky informing buyers or sellers that what happens in the b/s/t they are not responsible, and their using it at there own risk. With that they cannot get sued.
