Bought two last time. First shot of a new CO2 cartridge is downright dangerous, easily breaking the skin. However, after repeated shots, the grip gets noticeably cold and loses FPS drastically. I did not get 100 shots with 12g Crossman CO2 cartridges.Basically, its not a good idea to go though a whole mag at once.Overall, the gun feels heavy and solid. Most internal components are metal which is good. I hit mine with a good coat of black spray paint (leaving the orange tip of course) for a better look.
Just a note but mine took 10 days to ship, (15 to arrive) due to a problem with the order going to the wrong distributor. Probably just a individual problem.
I bought this last time. They do warn you that as you fire repeatedly, it will get cold and FPS will drop. That being said, it's a nice gun with a good feel in your hand. Farm and Fleet is selling this one for twice what they want here on Tanga.
I'm still trying to figure out whether or not you can use the 6mm paintballs in it. The information that comes with the gun says yes on one paper, and no on the other.
I put paintballs in mine and it works fine. If you look at the actual firing mechanism, its just a straight forward breech loading design. I did have some break while firing but it cleans easily (metal parts and all) It they break in the magazine, which also happens, its is more of a pain to clean. Fiber optic sight isnt really fiber optic but for this price, its not an issue.

I, for one, am glad that California's warning about lead includes the phrase "dumbass" in reference to people who might eat it. ;-)
