| I wanted to get feed back on the Proto Matrix Rail. I don't know much about but I've heard it's a pretty good gun. I'm looking to buy one but first I want to know if it's any good. |

Well, its light and it doesnt feel cheap imo (besides the trigger). Accuracy is decent and it can shoot fast. The board is good enough but i think virtue has one for the pmr i havnt looked at it... the stock barrell is really good for the paint i shoot. Plenty of ups are out so its an intresting buy. my mom has one, but iam waiting for the mini to stop having issues before i purchase anything. Frank ------------- Frank |

They're nice guns. Contact RicWhic14 or lester98c. They both have one. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

| thanks for the inputs I was also wondering if that was co2 and/or Hpa useable. I've heard that it leaks air is that just from poor maintance or a defect. sorry if I spelled maintance wrong |

CO2 will kill a rail so don't even try it. Iv had no air leaking problems with mine and i also check pbnation alot and have heard of no defects with them. Most leaks are caused from someone doing something they really shouldn't. It is a pretty light gun. The stock trigger does feel like crap and suck in my opinion but there is a pile of triggers on the market now and more coming. It has very little kick to it. I use an Ultra barrel on mine and it shoots very straight with no barrel breaks. Overall its a very nice gun for the price and i don't think you would be displeased with it. |

nice marker, good price, I don't like the lack of an LPR, but it seems to do fine without it. Just don't put your finger in the feedneck and pull the trigger.....  ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

Well, you could do the same with my 'cocker, or an ACT tippmann/ACS kingman. The reason you don't want to do it with a non lpr-ed electropneumatic that relies on eyes as it's anti-chop system is the fact that the bolt-sail/ram is then run off of the operating pressure of the marker. That means, if you stick your finger down there and you don't trip the eye (which is easy) then you get the equivalent of a small sledgehammer dropping on your finger but at a much faster speed. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig.

They live off a steady diet of O-rings and Dow-33 lube, but like I said, for the money, they're good. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |
