Marq's shot so similarly to spools, that's why they're quiet. And they have that pillow bolt again.

Angels not really too sure why. But damn do they shoot nice. IMO, take a magno'd A1 over an Ego 8 any day. And once I get my 2 magno kits, I will have.
The pillow bolt in the vice and marq series does not create an air seal. The pillow part is in the center of the bolt, and the air travels past the rubber pillow on the outside of the rubber pillow. So I am pretty sure the pillow would not have anything to do with making the gun quiter. I think it has something to do with the size of the hole in the valve that the poppet is in. Also I liked my Angel 1's also. Had 3 of them.
