shot my first a4 after a being a longtime mag and cocker (both mechanical) owner. although its about 45 degrees here and the paint is byop so-so stuff, i used a freak barrel kit and i still wasnt blown away by this wdp piece. the gun is stock besides a bit of trigger adjustment from a mt around here and running a duck x-stream set at 400. im pretty sure i saw some drop offs and my accuracy wasnt ups. because i do like the gun, ill chaulk it up to being the weather/paint and, i guess, my lack of lpr/mini-reg knowledge. i need to look into grabbing a new trigger and maybe some trigger magnets(?) or a coool pair of detents; plastic is out. i think it'll take some time to play great w/ this nice marker.

Get some better weather and you will be amazed!!!
I was farting around in my backyard on a cold day and was chopping every now and then. But when the weather is nicer, she purrs.
You will not be disappointed. The gun is pretty much good to go out of the box. However, just the ever slighest of fine tuning, and you'll be singing the praises.
Welcome over to the good side!! LOL!

well if ur in the cold weather and ur gun has settings like 200 psi input and 11 dwell, expect some chops. to kill the chopping in 20* weather, i turned the inline to 150 and turned the dwell to 18 then tweaked the inline to get about 280fps.
setting up the lpr is also a necessity if u dont want chops. all i did was take shims out until it would get horrrible disatnace then i put a shim back in and adjusted around that.

well i actually didn't have a chop all day; i did have a few breaks in barrel which were okay by me all considering. i'll need to hit up the local indoor place to try on different volumizers and mess with things a bit. i played semi mode 2 and tr 5. it was wierd to pull once and see more than one ball fly out for sure.
(btw RatJ, turkey w/ waffle on its ass)

well the tr on 5 is just l9ie db5. and if u have the best trigger setup around (shoots as soon as the trigger is touched) expect some major bounce with the db all the way up too. i had to ruin my excellent trigger job so i wouldnt get bounce.
and u should either try to adjust it urself or watch a tech do it so u can do it on ur own from now on. i hate giving my gun to other people cause it hates them and it always takes longer than it should to get fixed. and my angel has been the most reliable gun ive had since my ebladed cocker. it was awesome, just needed too much tweaking for my liking.
