its going to be nice seeing half the pro teams shooting something other than an AXE from now on.

If empire dumped the current axe body design and put the internals in a little more generic body, pretune it to ~180psi operation, and finally drop the price by ~$50-100... "he or she is a winna. So when they win mr. Banks, we win. 'nuff said"

If they just got rid of the stupid board in the foregrip idea it would be a lot better.

i cant handle the programming on the board.

i dont mind the axe but i wouldnt buy one over a g5, invasion, drone. Pro players need the best of the best of the best. Shooting G6R and luxe side by side the Axe on sunday made me sad.

fixed

they shouldnt need the best of the best. in reality all guns shoot equally minus differences in sound sig and kick. and with todays technology even the lower end guns dont have a ton of kick any more.

Have you shot an axe with the probolt that has been broken in and tuned? It is amazing. Honestly anyone who says they would shoot a g5 over an axe is an idiot.

I'm gonna have to agree with Brent on this One. The axe shoots great but the ergos are absolute ****.

Personally, I would rather get chewed out today, and start working toward a solution instead of leaving it to hang over your head till tomorrow.

This, nothing like that knot in your gut driving into work knowing you're gonna get reamed

l1ryan1l · 02-19-2013, 02:30 PM

Eessh. I hope everything goes well. Have you screwed anything up before?

NEPxWeezy · 02-19-2013, 02:30 PM

I really wish I could get an axe for like 100 bucks to **** with. They shoot good.

Yeti6669 · 02-19-2013, 03:31 PM

Hmmm...I've never worked for anyone where someone doesn't have oversight of what I do. How much rope they give me to "hang myself" depends on the boss. Failure to recognize the mistakes can be seen as a leadership/oversight failure/laziness on their part. Peons come with problems, leaders have solutions

disturbed989 · 02-19-2013, 04:08 PM

Hmm I was just thinking and I still remember the one and only person who has ever gotten the better of me in a trade. I even almost got scammed actually I did get scammed.

Someone's selling an XSV locally for $450, was thinking about it but haven't seen what the dealer cost is yet to see if I can get one cheaper

I guess I should say successfully scammed because I got my money back in both of those cases. I traded my proto slg for a defiant 2 that ended up being broken. The guy almost didn't even ship the defiant until I threatened to call the police. This was back in 2008 and nobody has ever been successful since. I never even left him negative feedback because I was scared of gettin a negative back.
