Okay, i mainly play woodsball, but me and my team have recently received a very adequate sponsor. Right now i use a 98c with about $150 worth of upgrades, but i have fallen in love with ariakon's replicas. The question is that, are they worth buying and using or is it more for show than performance? the price is pretty high ------------- Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo |

I think its definately worth it. I own a SIM-4 and its amazing. No upgrades needed. Its perfect stock. I would give a full review but I dont have time. Drop by the Ariakon forum and you can find all kind of info. We have comparisons(The famous one with a stock SIM-4, upped 98c, and upped A5) ------------- You call the Eagle, Eagle does the rest. |

NO dont buy a stupid armotech knock off! Go for the real deal buy a warsensore ws66. It has the hop up barrel, better than the flatline, adn comes in may differnt types adn has a mag kit already attached to it. believe me go with the real product, armotech or warsenor, not the knock off brand, akrion. ------------- My Gun: Pro/Carbine 12" Lapco Auto Spirit 20oz Tank Normal Hopper

You have no idea what you are talking about. They arent knock-offs at all. They have completely different internals. You obvisiouly havent used a Ariakon product. They are top of the line products. They are both great products. Some people prefer one over the other. I know many that use both. In the Ariakon forum one of the Generals(Robo) has a WS66 and a really nice SIM-5. A few of the Team members of Sons Of Liberty are active on the Ariakon forum and trust Ariakon products. Dont talk **edited** about it before you use it. ------------- You call the Eagle, Eagle does the rest. |

You are so dumb you dont even know. Ariakon and Armotech are two completely separate companies. Ariakon was a dealer for Armotech...blah, blah, blah...they made there own products(SIM series) and sold them under the Armotech name...they broke off and became Ariakon. Now they have no affiliation. Even though I am happy you agree with me on Ariakon products, but before you dis another forumer about his/her wrong facts get your facts straight first. ------------- You call the Eagle, Eagle does the rest. |

Straight outta Ariakon. Take it back. Take it back now. To summerize it, Armotech are still making products and are working with WarSensor and Speedball Paintball while Ariakon is making there own products. Armotech and Ariakon are DIFFERENT COMPANIES!!! ------------- You call the Eagle, Eagle does the rest. |

Your wrong. 1) "Armotech LCC" Owned by TRIANGLE SYSTEMS, INC Became Ariakon; 2) "Armotech Taiwan Ltd." owned by SPEED PAINTBALL CO., LTD is now Armotech and both continue to do buisness making the markers they made before the name change. Both companies had claim to the same name copyrights and settled it out of courts with a name change and are now completely seperate companies except that they compete against eachouther. ------------- http://tippmann.com/players/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=126734&PN=0&TPN=1 - "SO I bought an Angel, How the hell do I shoot it.." -jmac3 |
