its not bad for a blow back. thats what i started with earlier this season and it performed well. to go from a tippy to a tes wouldn't be a bad start untill you are ready to get serious. then you can buy a mid to high end gun from there.
I know it can shoot up to 20 bps, so does this make the T.E.S. fully automatic. I know some fields don't allow full auto markers. Is the T.E.S. fully auto?
And i think the TES works pretty well in tournies... i got some friends that play with Angels, matrix,... all kind of high-end guns, And they still like the TES for tournaments... sometimes they get less problems using a TES than using the other over priced guns!
