I must say, great review. I had a great time reading it, and I would definitely be fearful of someone with four :)

very good review. better than most. i a have some advice for you tho. i have a ptx, and i love the thing. however, mine shoots 325 fps when the velocity is turned all the way in. sure, there is more kick, but its worth it. all you need to do is take out the quick strip pin and remove the main drive spring. take the main drive spring out of another gun (ie rebel, sypder, griffen) and replace it. make sure the coils are about twice as small. just pop it in and adjust your velocity. good luck!

Great review, I have been considering one of these for a while :)

The field I frequent is indoor so the maximum FPS is 240, so I think that the PTX could handle it...

How accurate do you find them?

this system is one of my favorite "general paintball" boards. However, it is kinda tough keepiong track of all the area's here, though I try. I spend alot of time at teh more "verticle" boards and user group forums that I belong.

Thanks, though, I hope to be an asset here.

Nice review. Maybe I have a gooder/ungooder version (great grammar, eh?)

Because mine can get to 280, and I love that. However, I think it needs to be broken in or something, because it won't always recock properly. Sometimes it'll sputter, other times it will recock, and others it'll not recock at all.

As far as kick in these guns, I'm used to real guns. The kick on these are insignificant, and I hardly even notice them any more.

Trigger pull is about... what would you say, 5lb pull? I think that's what it's around. It's harder than a 98, but lighter than a Pro/Carbine (I'm very familiar w/ Tippmann guns).

Also, what did you plan on using them in the game as? You said you wanted to use it in a Big Game or Scenario, what part did 4 of them play? 2 I could easily understand, running and diving firing one in each hand.
