Freestyle pros and cons

Wolfstuff184 · 01-26-2005, 07:48 PM

yea true. Well since the dm4 is outta my range, i will basically have to choose between the shocker or the freestyle

ViSioN_OutBrEaK49 · 01-26-2005, 07:55 PM

do the free thing and get a freestyle 05

Wolfstuff184 · 01-26-2005, 08:02 PM

lol thanks. That is what i think i am gonna do. Then get nox

DM4's have alright efficiency... But, if your only looking to spend $750, get a FreeStyle over the Shocker. I hate the way Smart Parts does business. It takes the same amount of material to make a H.E. Bolt as it does a stock bolt. They would pay the research/production back in sales, but instead, they try to make another $80 off their loyal customers. With ICD, the second the H.E. bolt was perfected it was put on FSs. Just look at the Imp, every improvement they have made comes as an aftermarket part. Hell, the Imps' been the same since 02'. My point is, go with the company willing to give you the best product for the best price. ICD.

yeah that is what im gonna do. I am going to get the 05, but i dont know if i should wait until this march thing comes out or not.

Zio7 · 01-26-2005, 08:45 PM

"this march thing" will be atleast 1000 bucks.

too bad, you should have ordered your 05 freestyle about a month ago when shore paintballsupplies was giving halos with them. they stopped that though about three weeks ago.

Zio7 · 01-26-2005, 09:31 PM

...those "free" halos were a hundred bucks..850 if u ordered through the internet,
750 if u called and no halo.

Wolfstuff184 · 01-27-2005, 01:57 PM

oh well. I dont know if i should save a while for a halo or just get a z-board for my egg. I dont shoot to fast and am thinking that the z-board should be fine. What do you think?

forestgumpey · 01-27-2005, 02:20 PM

a z board will be fine

forestgumpey · 01-27-2005, 02:21 PM

i know technically they were 100 for the halo, but this is right when the 05 freestyle came out any way and they were 850 every whree else
so either order some where ele for 850 and dont geta halo or orderthere and get one...

true ^

pros have been listed, but:

small
light
fast
efficient

cons:
trigger is horrible at first, so its best to adjust it first. now mine is the minimum pull for it. right when the solenoid clicks, it wont pull anymore.
regs MUST be set first.
no extra parts, and u'll need those.. but there is one for 10-20 bucks a guy is selling.

Wolfstuff184 · 01-27-2005, 04:50 PM

ok thanks for the help. I just wish i could shoot one before i buy it to see how i like it first.

Zio7 · 01-27-2005, 06:59 PM

i never shot one before i got mine. its still ripped. just be sure to adjust the trigger and regs first.

Wolfstuff184 · 01-27-2005, 07:45 PM

yea i know that

Zio7 · 01-27-2005, 08:35 PM

then thats all u need to know..other than how to clean it and stuff...

lvl4l2C · 01-27-2005, 11:49 PM

DUDE! I GOT MINE TODAY, CHECK IT OUT IN THE THREAD "IT'S HERE!!!!" OMG DUDE, BUY IT NOW, IT'S SO TIGHT!

Swimfan144 · 01-28-2005, 01:14 AM

what wud u compare the freestyle to the alias i mean they pretty close in range sept 100 bucks off and they also weight practically the same. i mean i guess what it comes down to is which gun has a better feel and more reliable. also compare their triggers. if you cud.

Wolfstuff184 · 01-28-2005, 01:58 PM

forestgumpey · 01-28-2005, 02:02 PM

alias is way better then any freestyle,
