The point is he has the best two poppet platforms, he could diversify and have permanent boss status in both platforms.

As far as what i would want in a spool from BL, mostly just smoothness, and quietness. I mean, if the G6r can be as quiet and smooth as it is, I would love to see what he can do with a spool.
Efficiency isn't as big a factor to me, but I know it is to some people, so that would be a welcome addition.
Basically, I would like a small, macro less spool, that doesn't kick or make noise. Or as close to that as possible. If he could do a spool that weighed about the same as the G6r (ballpark, I know that's a tall order) then i would be sold.

Smoothness and sound signature are what would.be huge selling factors for me. If he can throw in decent effeciency(9-10 pods on a 68/45) and ergonomics similar to the g6r or victory then he has one sold to me.
Currently the clone GT is the only thing being made right now that has all of that in my opinion.

I used to care so much what I shot, but in all honesty I don't know why people actually do care whether what their marker is. What they should care about is whether it meets all of the criteria they want out of a paintball marker. In BL's case, what he's done with the G6R and the Vic's, they pretty much lead the pack in every category you could ask for in terms of performance. You say you're a "spool guy"? Why? Because they are generally smoother and quieter than poppets? Try a G6R or a Victory and then tell me if they aren't smooth and quiet enough for you to now accept the huge efficiency gain and easy of maintenance over your spool alternative.

I remember when guns were sold off how fast they could cycle, interesting how things have changed.

With ROF caps in every competetive league, the faster cycle rates are nice to have but not strong selling points anymore. I think people also got to a point with the faster hoppers where they stepped back and realized "I just threw $30 down range just to break out." It's not worth it to throw a stream of paint out that the balls are literally strung together and touching.
Best spool to me would be broken in droid efficiency and sound signature, geo 2 reliability and kick, comfort of the dye NT10, weight and styling of a G6R. Slap Bob's name on one of those frankenmarkers and I'll sell a kidney for one.

Most of the time I use lol, I don't actually laugh. That time Sir, made me literally laugh out loud.
And Tim, I have to keep a kidney. I need the buffer so my first born never becomes an option.

ff to 4:10 It's 2 years old, but i'm sure he still feels the same way. Eff a spool valve, give me a victory with a quieter sound signiture, and an OLED bored like the '12 g6r but with a little more customization, and Bob sales will explode just like they did for the '12 g6r release.

Make a spool that gets 24 pods to a 68/45 as the '12 g6r does.... I could care less what the gun valve is..... a case of paint to a tank is insane
