griffan2 · 05-27-2012, 08:42 PM

HC never responds to emails (typical) any of you guys delt with em before? wanted to know what the process was for getting the new bolt/ asa into my hands as they are not for sale on the hostileinc site. also! how hard are these things to tune? ive heard people get from 5 to 8 pods per fill. big diference. anyone have any cold weather story's yet?

Well as far as I have heard, the factory is producing and selling the rogue+ to recoup some losses from the original manufacturing debacle. In my honest opinion, it seems as though they have a site up and are trying to simply get rid of the remaining guns. Support does not even seem to exist for the upgrade parts. I e-mailed someone a while back about this and was asked for my address and all and assured the parts would be sent out. I have since sold the rogue and never told them, still have not received the parts. I dont think there is any kind of support from the company that is currently selling these guns. I had one with no upgraded parts and it was amazing! If you get a lemon though, you are pretty much up the creek without a paddle.

I also asked for and was told I would be receiving upgrades. I has also NEVER received them. However i have also Never had a problem with the marker and it is amazing...of course Its my second one, and has been mostly a display piece since I have recieved it...

There never was an upgraded bolt. It was in the prototype phase and I believe only 1 has ever been made. Also, I have never had any problems with my ASA at all. No need to replace something that isn't broke.

allot of people (gun i wanted) blows out orings when you use HP air input.

n0rth · 06-07-2012, 11:55 PM

So use LP air? Not a hard thing to fix haha. All my tanks are LP so I never had any issues. If you are interested in a rogue, PM me. I have mine for sale LNIB cause I have bills due. Just over 4800 shots through it.

Really because I have two dissimilar bolts... Interesting

Really? I remember specifically hearing about a new bolt, the original sat too far back or something and was causing breaks. Im no expert, just recounting what I heard. As far as the asa, the issues seemed to be hit or miss but I agree, I never had an issue with mine. It just seemed pointless to not get the new parts, or try to get as I never received them.

There was a new bolt made. Unfortunately n0rth your mistaken on this one.

the new parts were:

1. new detents
2. new asa to not blow o-rings
3. new bolt

all of these things worked perfectly. the rogue was an amazing gun with these simple fixes. i wish there could be support for them.

I wish i could help you griffan, i really do. they were awesome markers. i still need an o-ring to use mine (one between the noid and the body) and i have been trying for at least 8 months now with no headway at all. it really sucks

asfaraslogic · 06-14-2012, 06:22 AM

I have the bolt and detents but not the asa.. As yet no issues with that so keeping fingers crossed.

asfaraslogic · 06-16-2012, 05:42 PM

Didn't they also upgrade the regulator?

specopsdeath2 · 06-16-2012, 06:22 PM

They did thanks Juan. Sorry was having a very long day (pulled a 17 hour day for work)

asfaraslogic · 06-17-2012, 05:55 PM

Yeah that's the part I really wanted..you should look into getting a couple I so want one.

I'll see what I can do..but really no promises at this point. No body has been able to get into contact hostile inc for anything.

This sucks to hear, if they stepped their support game up I would buy one in a heartbeat!

It's extremely unfortunate that hostile inc refused to fix the original rogues for hostile creations.

I love my rogue to death, I would use it over my luxe any day. I am no longer a rep for hostile creations or sponsored by them. But I still would shoot my rogue all day.

specops, why was I told by Will the last time I contacted him that they hadn't made a new bolt yet? Oh well, that was a while ago.

The bolt I was given, is/was the prototype v2 bolt. If you'd like I can get a picture in here of both bolts side by side to show the difference.

jigser · 07-01-2012, 09:52 PM

so theres no way to get the new stuff for the rogue?

asfaraslogic · 07-02-2012, 09:59 AM

Nope.
