I was looking forward to getting into the pump realm and thought this was a good mid range to get started into.
Good - for the money you get a heck of alot in the box. A full barrel kit with 3 back and a 10-round tube attachment for those that want to go fully stock.
Bad - I open the box put a tank on it and air it up, 4 leaks were so apparent. After about 40 minutes and $50 later the leaks were fixed. I then went out to chrono each ball I tried to shoot would chop. I went back to take apart the gun, I could not get the barrel to come off, I had to put a towel on the barrel back and put in it vice grips to take it off. After that I cleaned and re-greased. I also went up a bore size in the barrel, this time making sure I did not tighten the barrel to tight, I had to use the vice grips to get the barrel off again. Empire customer service was sad, I was told I shouldnt have taken it apart and should have returned it to them before I did anything else.

Bought this gun and haven't regretted yet. Sure beats my old Tippmann SL68 2. Feels very solid in your hands, and has a silky smooth pump stroke. And talk about quite and consistent.
BUY IT. especially if u can't afford a CCM

I got this as my first pump and I love it. I can totally keep up with semi's. The barrel kit is great and super accurate. It is reliable and efficient. When you tune the regulator it is also very consistent +/- 2 fps. Get this gun its great.

i ordered this when you could also get the free event s and i have been very impressed. this marker feels very solid in the hands, is quite, and the full barrel kit is a great touch. the only reason i gave it a four out of five is because tho pin popped completely out of the bolt along with the little black piece and the spring. i never found the black piece but with the spring the bolt stays in fine and it still shoots beautifully. good job empire!
Very Bad Experience 
awesome!!!!!!
