I was wondering which pb pistol from ariakon (overlord rx or acp 2.0) should I get.Do overlord rx clips work on an acp 2.0 vis versa.Does the overord rx have a top railling.Can you guys help me out?
If you haven't already Id strongly consider rethinking buying from Ariakon. I purchased an older Overlord from a gentleman in town for a great price, only thing wrong was the ball detent had broke. It was only a $3 part, but after 2 weeks of no reply from my order (and a $10 shipping fee for a part the size of a dime) I called and cancelled the payment, because i had no shipping confirmation or nething. Next thing I know the part shows up, and they are talking about creditcard fraud, all because they wont answer a phone call, or return a call, and wont keep you updated. The company is horrible id stay away
I think the above poster has some bias against the Ariakon company, due to his experience with the product he received from someone that is not a licensed dealer of Ariakon products. I am an owner of an Ariakon ACP 2.0. It is a pretty decent pistol, but it isn't the higher end pistol that Ariakon makes, the Overlord is. Aside from that, the ACP 2.0 is accurate, and not all that bad. The ACP cannot be customized easily with what you are given, you have to alter the actual marker in order to customize it the way you want. The Overlord, on the other hand, is much more custom friendly, and from what I hear, it can share custom parts made for other paintball pistols. The spare magazines (or clips, if you will) are not compatible for both markers, the ACP 2.0 clips work only for the ACP 2.0, and same goes for the Overlord. As far as I know, neither markers have a top rail system because this is where the magazine attaches to the marker (there is not clip in grip option). Although I am saying this, the Ariakon products are pretty decent choices for paintball pistols.
I'm sorry kappy, but guy is right. Ariakon is a terrible company. It's pretty routine for an order to take WAY too long, if you ever even recieve it. That, and getting any kind of tech support from Ariakon is impossible, as they never answer the damn phone or reply to emails. Buy a pistol from a reputable company that cares about their customers, like Tipmann, Tiberius or BT. You'll be glad you did. That being said, I have two Overlord Rx's if you wanna buy them, cause I'm DONE dealing with Ariakon.
