so much techno-babble

seriously, lets cut down on the verbage guys.
The ultimate truth in paintball is that the interaction between the gun and the player is far and away the largest factor in accuracy, consistency, and reliability.

looks good
g4's are good guns, the issue is they aren't idiot proof so people fuck them up and blame DP.

My brother has one and his works perfectly.

I hope they got some of their shit together on this gun. I'm not liking the eye covers, but if they got rid of done of the out of box problems, made it more quiet, and efficient. It could give the eXTCy, and Rail a run for their money.


For $329, i's a little above the extcy/rail price range, for another $80 i hope it's a little better.

i believe it already was better through the milling trigger all metal clamping feed on off(these 2 pertain to the rail) and IMO have better ergos

I say price it at $400 Keep the G4 @ $250

Put the Tech T Bolt Engine Stock with the new G5, keep it macroless and give it the same oled board as the Fusion.

We would have a winner.

Well, you got a better feedneck, asa, trigger, that's easily $80 for the extcy and rail. The shot quality isn't always there with DP guns, but they always give you nice little stuff with it.

Yeah trigger, macroless design, all metal Cam Lock style feedneck (beats even the Excty's), better milling, and the new bolt engine, I think it might even be in competition with the Axe even though the Axe is $140 more. I think it will beat out the Etha for sure and will bring some heavy competition to the Axe, possibly even out do some other higher priced mid end guns. For $329 I would buy that.

This platform has always been super light, so i wonder if they were able to keep the weight down with this macroline-less format

I may have to sell off my G4 and snag one of these. Hopefully someone gets a video up soon, at least shooting. Definitely interested.

I love all these people saying that this has better features than the extcy/rail.... the g4 had pretty much all the same features xD anyways. I loved my spec-r, and love the look of this gun too, Hopefully the shot quality of this is improved, but I will say again, the reason g3's/g4's have a good amount of barrel rise and pop sound, is because of the weight in general, and the weight and porting on their barrels. throw a nice heavy dye barrel on there, and the shot changes pretty noticeably. One of the biggest downfalls of their guns were the regs (pre g4), so hopefully this new one doesnt have reg seat issues.

On the plus side, someone claims that they've been using a TechT engine for the G4 in their G5, so there's that.

The only downfall was the early run of G3 regs (and even then it was purely user error), which they fixed early on and quickly by updating the reg seat.

Seems legit. I may pick up one once the used price falls to like 200. Thatd be worth it then. Hopefully
