The vanquish was a huge let down for me.

Alot of eloectronics in the Vanquish kind of reminds me of Angel Air in a way. Over engineered...

Maybe. I'm not sure about the electronics you're mentioning, but I haven't watched john in the videos either.

Really, the only innovative thing they did with the electronics was throw in an electronic pressure read out. It is basically their redline board otherwise. Cool idea, but MacDev is doing it with the GTi as well. The milling just kills me! Thankfully, we have Bob around still. Seems to be the only person on the market that can innovate with milling designs!  |

I think Bob Wins the best new marker/product for the first quarter of this year....
But beware of the coming Borg Invasion - Resistance is Futile!

yeah, bobs def got it in the bag this year. Then again Ive always felt he's given the best product in quality and price to performance since he started 
Glad to support the best company out there My runner up would probably be the impulse, I have high hopes for it this year as well as the future. Third would be the cocker bc I know there will be a increase in this within the next couple years. Going back to the roots is where this industry needs to go every once in awhile. Refinements and new technologies to old ideas |

I would have to say I would be tempted to pick one of these up, having the Spoolie and Poppet in the same package is outstanding.
I liked the Victory a lot, but it just seemed a bit to finicky :/

Have I mentioned I Hate you? Sorry. Jealousy issues.
Someone put up an "unbiased" video or the marker shooting yet. Lol No really just somebody else show me what it's like with out wearing pajama pants and Camo vest.
Before the hate mail, all above was sarcasm.

Just curious on the differences between the 2013 ripper and vcom. I know that you can switch from spool to poppet on the vcom, but as far as both being spool. Are they the same engine inside, same efficiency? Sorry if this is a dumb question, just curious on big differences, aside the switching from vcom. Thx

the ripper is well a ripper. so you have the milling, same engines, and the barrel kit. Only difference between the two. Ripper worth the extra 250? I think so |

Can't wait till mine shows up this week. I've been hearing lots of good reviews and I'm glad I ordered it.
My buddy and I will probably will probably make a first impression video and an unboxing video or something.
Can't wait!!
