Is it worth it? Clone VX --> Clone GT

i just want to hear some opinions.

i recently compared my VX to someones GT at the field (chrono range).

imo they shot the exact same,

the only difference to me was the ergonomics on the GT were absolutely amazing.

is it really worth the extra money to get a GT over a VX?

How broken in was the GT? I have not noticed a big difference between the two, but I sold my VX and got me a clone. I am sure after broken on it will B amazing. I have about 12-15 cases now, I had couple hundred on my VX when I compared them.....

A well broken in GT outperforms any VX IMO

I own both and believe the GT is superior in many aspects, one of the biggest being the ergonomics. It just feels so good in the hands and the spacing of the foregrip is perfect.

My broken in GT shoots a bit smoother than my broken in VX, and is a little quieter. I also enjoy having no macro (yes, there are plenty of opinions on this matter, but I prefer macroless).

On my old VX I did manage to shoot 12-12 1/2 pods on a 68 and the most I got out of my GT so far (again not fully broken in) is 7-8 pods....

But over all I would say if comfortable with you BX keep it, if not go with the GT.

The reason i consider buying a GT is because i dont like the vx gripframe and it is hoseless.

12 pods on a vx? Sure you counted right?

I am not totally sold on hoseless. I love the clone/droid platform and say if you're intimately familiar with your gun then keep it. It's like a broken in baseball glove... if it fits and is comfortable keep it.

The ergonomics of the gt vs the VX sold me alone. The GT just feels like a great solid machine.
