Well, I rode up to my local store today to ask the guy that owns it what he would choose between an ego7 and a vice
Keep in mind, he's been playing paintball for 20 year and played pro for many years. He knows stuff
Anyway he said most likely the ego, but he did have trouble deciding. This was an 07 ego I asked about, so I can only guess he'd say ego8 hands down in this case.
-He said that Egos are more reliableand easier to maintain
-He's never chopped a ball using an ego. He's been using egos since like 05 or so and uses them 99% of the time
-He played with the vice this weekend and chopped 80 balls in 4 cases. He's pretty sure he's got it figured out though.

Just what a pro told me

Holy **** 80 Chops?
and what pro was this that you were talking to

Get the vice. half the price and heres whats better

4 eyes which lets you shoot faster (capably)
pillow bolt- NO CHOPS ( I am sure that guy had barrel breaks)
Bob long customer service- BEST SERVICE.



End of thread.

QFT. I love my vice, it's the shit.

[TeMatexD]

Vice all the way vice is sooo sexy omg.. there is no reason to have chops in a vice ... 4c eye system owns.. really easy to give maintenance. efficiency its a ++++++...

[MCNoobCake]

i like the ego better just bc i hate bl i got a marq 6 from the factory and the damn thing leaks and a fucked up noid from the factory also the parts take FOREVER to come in for all of bl stuff

Having owned a few Egos, used an 08 ego for a day, and owning a Vice, I would say the Vice wins hands down. Simple fact: Egos kick, Timmies kick less Also, my Vice gets around 1600 shots off a 68/4500 (That's with the LP valve). Another reason for the Vice, the 4C eye system (once installed) is pure genius. As a bonus, Bob Long has excellent customer service- Some of the best in the industry. Overall, Vices are more efficient, smoother, and quieter than most egos.

IMO, Vice all the way.

i used an ego8 for a while then i tested out the vice and i was between the two guns but i ended up buying the vice. I didnt only go for the vice cuz of the price.

Vice Ego

barrel: +

board: = =

eyes: +

grips: preference

trigger: +

regulator: = =

asa: +

feedneck: +

bolt: +

guns are evenly matched in my opinion its all preference vice gets better efficiency and it softer on paint, ego shoots a little faster.

I have only chopped 4 balls in my vice after shooting 10 cases through it and 2 of them were when i shot with my barrel condom on and the other two were barrel breaks from when i got dirt in the barrel.

How would I go about doing this?

[Fatkid8523]

It's all preference, but Bob Long Vice is $750, and the Ego 08 is around $1000. I think Bob Long makes a superb gun. Bob Longs are known for being easy on paint, I think the vice's milling just look more appealing. They are both excellent high end guns

[joe6969]

i gona hav 2 go with the ego i just think they look amazing, there light efficant ect..... and there british made so u carnt go wrong

[InvertShorty]

why dont you just try both of them?

Just what a pro told me

man BL products never chop...sounds like a lil kid wit n ion is maintainin it cause the vice is very easy 2 maintain n is just a great gun
or maybe he as usin monster ball...but the ball wouldnt pro break cause its so crappy

[whats_an_a5]

I have to go with the vice, the gun is just a beast. i have been using mine pretty heavily and it just doesn't fail. I haven't had a chop yet. The only problem i had was with the grips, in the middle of a game the grip decided to come off. As for the ego's great guns but there is not enough difference between the ego and the vice to justify paying the difference.

[Boyd]

haha yeah. See your kinda wrong... the monster balls wouldn't break... the bolt would...

Monster balls- Cheap reballs, good for about 3 or 4 shots at a sheet of ply wood. only $25 a case! can be found at your nearest Wal Mart.
