Did all the Force Fly's come with the laser eyes? What made them special besides the milling and anodizing?

At first, no they did not come with laser eyes. As far as what else made them special besides the hot milling...I believe it was the MT valve and the MT Lifetime Warranty. I am not 100% certain on that though. Maybe someone else can confirm or correct.

Talon pretty much covered it.
The laser eyes were not used until the G7 platform caem along. All G7's and newer markers came with them.

Talon is correct also . It was the valve, and life time warrenty that can be transfered to new user for a fee, and the sexy milling.
And of course you get the Mt trigger and back plate as well with the last few that were made as well.

Damn...completely forgot about the MT trigger and back plate coming stock on the Force Fly markers. Oh well.

Force Fly differences:

1. AF programming (AF Modes) - added shots, qty depended on Mode selected.

2. Distinct milling, selected & limited coloring schemes.

3. AF distinct back plate, MT trigger.

4. Single Volumizer size (Medium, but got 2 of them).

5. MT Lifetime Warranty, which was tranferrable if marker sold.

6. MT valve & stem (Nitrate coated, increased 'hardness' for longevity).

7. And the 'intangible' in cost, but significant in value, the MT support!

"Laser Eyes" was the second generation eye development used for all WDP products, the original 'non-visible' light eyes production runs discontinued/replaced by the 'visible' light eyes.

Next significant Force development was the TADAO board collaboration, now discontinued. The AF TADAO board series wrought new life in the A4/A4 Fly series, especially when coupled with the AF intelli-feed kit (currently available on the FMA site). The new Angry/TADAO board collaboration looks promising if only that it will allow use of 9V batteries, a little 'weight loss' on the A4/G7 series. All of these permitting the 'older' series A4/Fly/G7 series to remain competitive in the tourney arena.

Personally I have a 1st Gen A4 that was flied by FMA that I dropped a AF FSB board into and it appears to perform on par with the G7's and A1's at our local field, all at a much lower cost than getting a new A1. Actually bettter then my Force Fly (Tadao board may transfer soon :) ), so there is an economic factor to consider.

I'm sorry I will disagree with you on this. I feel eyes coming stock was really the last "Big" thing for Angel Markers. I was out of paintball for a year due to two local fields shutting down. I came back and I don't feel there have been any huge advancements in markers. At this tournament I participated in I got a chance to shoot a new ego, DM6ish (the all look the same), and shocker. Granted no one had a G7 or A1 there. I feel my Force Fly is as fast as anything out there with the added bonus of looking beautiful. So its a little heavier and larger. At 6'4" 220 I'm no front man. The weight doesn't bother me and the size to me is very comfortable. I've had offers for newer guns but I'm 100% happy with my gun.

And its weird seeing people refer to my gun as old.

Peace

The new Angery boards are 9 volt use.
