Vic's are inline poppits which give a feel of a spool while holding it. but shooting wise it is still a poppit.

My experience with vics has been amazing. they always preforms, if something goes wrong its always a simple fix, customer service is the highest of quality, and parts are everywhere.

one thing i did not like about vics in the beginning is that they did not come with pressure testers so they had to be bought separately. I also feel like there could have been more effort put into the design of how it looks.

overall, extremely solid marker that can be bought used cheap, and will preform in any and every weather type.

I can not say enough good thing about this gat. Ive had mine for almost 2 years and Ive loved her everyday. Out of the box the milling blows you away. Air it up and it shots as smooth as butter. At first I didnt think id like the small reg but it grew on me and now I cant even tell. NO TOOLS to get the bolt out and apart making it VERY field friendly. If you are thinking about getting one DO IT!!! Now is the time with the V2 and ripper vics hitting the market, V1 vics are getting cheap!

I had to get my engine supercharged by BLAST. They were easy to call and get it all set up. They called me when they were done - very easy great customer service.

After they installed the new engine and tuned it I was actually able to get the fps up to around ~290. I took it woods balling where no macro line comes in handy. You don't have to worry about snagging branches with macro line.

Its clear BLAST did a great job servicing the engine. I was able to get 5 pods and a hopper on a 3500 fill. I had more than enough air to shoot all my paint.

UPDATE: I was able to lower the velocity (for reball) down to about 215 no problem. No problem with consistency or anything.

For the cost it would be great if came with a LCD screen. I hate having to try to distinguish between teal, blue, white and counting blinks.

Its also hard when you have to print your own manual.

The marker is picky when you're adjusting velocity. You really need to have a pressure tester to make sure you keep the LPR and HPR pressures working well with each other.

Its a great marker, accurate, efficiency, easy to clean.

Bob Long has done it again! This marker is absolutely amazing! The Victory is absolutely BLAST'S greatest Marker to date, having every feature a paintball player would want on a marker.

Features~

PRO-The first thing I thought when I picked up the Victory was that is was very very VERY light. When I placed a full 68/4,500 cf tank+ a invert halo too hopper, I was still amazed how lightweight the marker was, also more so how balanced the marker felt with all the extra weight.

Although these are little pros, I'd like to mention the Victory's new ASA as well as the tool less feed neck:

PRO-The ASA works just like any ASA on the market, but I really like how the Victory's will degas the ENTIRE marker, so that you'd don't have to fire any extra shots. Sometimes with other markers it will just degas the line, but you'll still have two or three shots in the reg.

PRO-The tool less feed neck is a welcomed feature by me. Hell, any tool less feature on a paintball Marker is a welcomed feature by me! If you have a larger hopper end that just won't fit, you just undo the latch, unscrew the feed neck so it loosens, then you push the lever back and it will tighten, keeping your hopper secure within the feed neck!

PRO-As any regular paintball player will do, they will move around their house practicing walking the trigger. The Victory's ball bearing trigger feels so natural when pulled/walked, and helps build great finger dexterity. It takes the same amount of force to pull the top of the trigger, that it does to pull the bottom, so you're able to build a consistent walk without losing your bps.

CON-The Victory has an integrated macro line in the grip frame. It's a nice little feature, especially when you switch hands, but to me, it's really not that big of a deal. I guess I'm just used to having a macro line on my markers, but it really doesn't help/improve my game. It's more of a convenience thing for people in my mind.

PRO-Another feature that some people dislike is the short reg. I for one love the short reg. Since I have big hands, being able to put the fingers around the reg and placing my thumb on top of the marker is really sweet. I'm able to control the marker, moving it to where I want to point it.

PRO- The greatest feature on the gun in my mind, and the one BLAST technologies is heralding as the biggest change with their Marq, is the tool less PE (proficiency Engine) removal. You just lift the magnetic back cap and pull the PE out. Now you have in your hand the entire bolt, ready for maintenance! When you're done lubing the marker or replacing an O-Ring, you slide it back in and you're good to go!

PRO- The victory has THE BEST efficiency of any marker on the market. Just check the you tube videos, you can go through a case + on a 68/4,500 and still have some gas left for a game. I went though 8 pods even before thinking of getting my tank filled the past weekend!

On the field~
When I first used the marker, I was very happy at how responsive and lightweight the Victory was. Since I play mid, being able to switch from moving fast and light, to unloading consistent streams of paint from my pods into a bunker is something that I was very happy about. There is absolutely NO recoil and it's one of the quietest markers on the market. The feed neck is so small that you have a huge sight range, creating better control and accuracy of where/when you shoot.

The only thing I didn't like about the Victory when I was out at the field, was the annoyance at finding the sweet spot on the regulator for velocity. Being able to find the sweet spot on the victory means that you also have to adjust the HPR and the LPR of the marker, you need to have a BLAST Victory LPR/HPR tester to do....which is another $45+ to spend. If one of those is set too low, your marker might be only able to chrono around 270 or lower. Other than this minor set back, the Victory is a dream on the field.

To put it into simpler terms: The Victory is absolutely an amazing marker, hands down. It is a paintball players' wet dream! BLAST has really made one hell of a marker. When you drop $1,175 in marker, you won't be disappointed. It does what anyone would want from a marker.

Most people who read these reviews are likely to be debating between 4 markers:

Luxe
Ego
Victory
Dye NT

IMO the Victory is the best over all marker out of the 4.

FEATURES

No macroline is great. The feel of the gun from gun fighting and running and shooting is vastly improved.

Quick Release Bolt - You still need to take apart the entire assembly with a hex wrench for full access. Still basic lubing, etc... made easier.

Tadao Board - not my favorite board but definitely better than the Frenzy

Pillow Bolt - nothing like memory foam for your Ultra Evil!

Barrel - Believe it or not, one piece barrels are proven more accurate than 2 piece barrels. The rumor is they are made by CP. It shoots great none the less.

Trigger - It is ok. DEFINITELY get a Violent Trigger. It will rock your world.

PERFORMANCE


The 4 eyes really come into play in semi and are worth the $40. In PSP, there is not much difference. Of course if you play uncapped full auto, there is more smoothness to it. It has Wired eyes over the Luxe ribbon eyes. Definitely better.

The marker has very little vibration, extremely quiet, 12 pods from a 68/45, and most important consistent 4-5+/-.

It is east to maintain, but not easier than an Ego.

This is the smoothest marker I have every shot. -


CUSTOMER SERVICE


They are at every national event. Their phones are actually answered.

OVER ALL

This marker is loaded with features and performance at a lower price than its competitors. With a Virtue OLED and Violent Trigger, it might be the best marker money could buy.

I had a team landshark victory. it shot great and even held up playing in mud and rain the only issue was getting the bolt out. it would stick some times. and the windows on the side somtimes would let dirt get down the chamber when cleaning the bolt and then you would have to clean out the whole gun

This is my first victory, and I must say it is the cumilation of the Marq platform. I've owned perhaps 10 Marqs, and this victory (sc'd, 4eye, vp trigger, cp 2piece) is truly the best thing ever. VERY efficient and so smooth. The trigger is bouncing right now but the gun has NO problem hitting 20bps over a chrono. I actually like the short regulator and feel that it gives the gun a great feel. I'd definitely recommend one!
