After a wk worth of research. I Decided on the Axe. I did receive the wrong gun initially. ANS sent a mini instead of an axe. ANS did clear it up right away by giving me an overnight Sat morning delivery. Not bad considering I'm on the other side of the country. I do wish they sent a giftcard or coupon or something but whatever. Right out of the box the Axe feels great. trigger is sturdy and smooth (a lot better than the Mini trigger). put a pinokio loader on top and had no problems with paint so far. just received a freak barrel for it. so i will see if it makes any difference, although it seemed to consistently put paint right where i want it with the stock barrel. will probably upgrade to a boss bolt with spring and lsr eyes
PS I order the ANS ano'd cobalt model. so upon receiving it i found that the feedneck is very loose and can be unscrewed if the hopper is pushed to the left. I find i funny because i read some reviews about the feedneck being a nightmare to remove.

This gun rocks, will definitely step up your game to the next level. Been playing with it for about 3 months almost every weekend and love it. Would recommend getting a nano feed neck and virtue laser eyes. Just to let you know by getting the laser eyes your trigger becomes sensitive or more easier to pull, there for shoots faster. All in all love this gun.

i just used the axe for the first time last weekend, shot incredible, i was playing with 2 egos a geo, some variety of bob long and some others, and the axe let me keep up with them apposed to my blitz, the one thing it took me a while to get used to was the button you push, you have to push it kinda hard and in, but once i got used to it, not a problem, and the dvd it came with i couldnt use on my labtop or dvd player but i found an online manual which works good. i love the axe, shoots amazing, i would recomend to anybody to get one or try it out.
Amazing marker for the money.
