Bought this and took it out of the box, aired it up, and it just leaked straight out of oeverywhere (mainly down the breach). Tried troubleshooting it. still leaked. All O rings were fine but still leak. So now i have to send it in for repairs/refurbishing

Empire Axe

after debating between the Mini and an Axe, I purchased this gun and am EXTREMELY happy with my choice. Haven't chopped a single ball, smooth as butter straight out of the box. Stock barrel is decent but definitely could be upgraded. Tool-less bolt removal makes cleaning a breeze! So simple to work on. 10/10. recommend to anyone looking to buy a great gun.

The only problems out of the box that i had with this gun was the screw that activated the micro switch was constantly falling out of place. My solution was buying some Blue Loctite and putting it on the threads of the screw and let it cure overnight. Overall, marker is shooting like butter now! much more smooth,quiet,and better than the Etek 3 that i had. My etek 3 had the zick 2 kit and cure 4 but still not as smooth and quiet as the stock axe. The trigger on the axe also has ball bearing so its way more responsive and smooth. Only recommendation is a barrel with .689 bore or lower to match your paint so you can turn down the velocity to save air and shoot more quietly with less kick. The new Axe should have the velocity instruction on the backcap, improved feedneck that broke on the old ones, and the shockwave board that doesnt require you to open the foregrip to change modes.

Great performance

I live in puerto rico which is very humid and this gun does not brake paint. It has great efishency. It has a great look and the front grip gives you a better grip on the gun than what a geo or ego would give you.

For the price this.marker really impressed me. I ordered it two weeks ago. Shot side by side with FX, G4, REVI and the axe was the smoothest shooter of them all with the least recoil. I just played a game of woodsball with it on Sunday. Shot 2,400 balls and not one ball chop. I used my Ifit barrel kit and this marker was shootting ball on ball. The trigger works well for my taste. Only complaint is the feedneck is week looking and holds the hopper too tight, and the 12 inch barrel. Buy it!
