i had 2 of these, and i loved both . seeing as how i cant stay with one gun for too long, i traded both of mine off . these markers are very good . if you havent played with one, or held one, they will definately catch you by surprise . they are plenty fast, plenty consistant, and real efficient . the noise level isnt real off the hook either . its a relatively quiet gun . the fit and finish of the marker is really good as well . doesnt feel cheap . it has the feel of a quality product . maintenance is crazy easy as well . lube the ram and voila!, your set . all-in-all, if your lookin for a marker thats really dependable, and a snap to care for....this is it . the guys at the field will respect you as well . awesome guns .

Poppit, maintainence, reg balacing, sharp back end
let me start off by saying that this marker shoots GREAT!....when it actually works. the main problem with this gun was mainly the darn poppit. there are 3 (i think theres 3...) o-rings on the poppit and that 2nd (middle) o-ring just never wants to stay on the darn poppit....which is a pain if it happens on the field. dont get me wrong though, when it stays on and actually works, it shoots like a dream. its shoots as smooth as any spool valve type marker (with a little more kick) and is very light weight; almost rivaling the Ego6 in weight, maybe even lighter. but another cause of problems is the tedious maintainence this marker goes through. this marker HAS TO use Dow55 in order operate (the orings need to swell to seal properly). another down side is reg balancing. though not required, it is highly recommended. if its not balanced properly, the poppit orings can blow off...which isnt fun. the detents arent very good either, they got shredded after my first time using it. overall, its great gun...but its tedious maintainence and problematic poppit really brings it down

The 06 Empire Is a golden gun. When it comes to reliablilty its great and extreamly easy to maintain. This gun Shoots Ropes and I mean ropes The stock barrel is decent but is recommended to upgrade. The Problem I see with this gun at this time and age is that its a tad bit Longer then most. The frame of the gun and the barrel make it seem a lot longer then something of an 07 ego or a dm7 dm8 ect. Not recommended for front/ mid players. Also because it has a kick nothing to extreme of course but not a gun for these positioned players. As a back player this gun will do you good especially if you can get the kick down and controlled. This gun has easy maintainence can be easily field striped if there is a ball jam and easily put back together. Deff recommened this as a backup gun or if cant afford a higher end gat use as your primary "tool". I say this gun is heavy, realistically its not but compared to other guns that are out now its a much heavier gat then most. Still a great bang for your buck and can always be upgradable to compete with / even beat some of the newer guns on the market today.

ive been using this marker for almost 5 months and it has never let me down. its very easy to control and manuver(sp?). this is the most efficient marker i have owned, hopper and 7 pods off of a 68/4500 tank. this marker is very easy to strip down and clean aswell. i would suggest this marker to anyone.

Had my timmy since it was new, and have kept it over the years because it is a "go to" marker when all others fail. It shoots fast as any marker on the market and I upgraded the board to a Tadao Infamous board. And it get great air efficiency
The marker is light, dependable and fits my long arms perfect, even tho I have had a few reg issues BLAST was able to assit me and get it all worked out fast.
I do find that the many sharp edges /deep milling seem to get lots of paint/mud/dirt etc. down in them and makes keeping it clean a chore but nothing to unreasonable.
Overall this marker is a work horse and I will have it till I quit playing

hi. i just got this gun today. aired it up and put a pod of paint in the hopper... this gun is amazing. its really quiet and has very little kick. it shoots really really smooth... the stock barrel (assasins barrel) is pretty good. it was shooting ball on ball ropes. i am very happy with this gun. and its a great deal. you can get this gun brand new for 400 - 450 maybe cheaper.. i would definitly recommend this gun for anyone who doesnt have a grand to spend on a ego or something and that they want a really fast, reliable high end marker... this gun is awesome go gett iitttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bob Long Technologies Empire Intimidator 2006Had one for a few months, had problems leaking or something else. When working though it is a nice gun. Looks great too, of course all Bob Long guns do

Bob Long Technologies Empire Intimidator 2006I had to tune it literally every game. LPR was bad, so I replaced it. Then the eyes went. then the solonoid went. That's when I parted it out. No thanks, worst 3 months with any marker.
