Dragun Drallion

I am probably going to buy a Drallion in a few days, but a lot of people on this site seem to think it sucks. There was another thread about the Drallion, and the replies basically came down to "it sucks". That really doesn't help. Has anyone shot one?

I have a dragunfly. They are NOT superior to the drallion.

The dragunfly is a spyder barrelled and valved, sto bolted autococking gun. It's great for the price. The Drallion is a sub-$300 ELECTRONIC AUTOCOCKER. The only reason it's not called an autococker is because of liscensing (basically dragun was too cheap to pay for the liscensing rights to use the name autococker). It is 100% autococker compatible, so if something on it isn't good enough (such as the lpr, the weakest point of the drallion), you can use any part that fits any other autococker. Therefore if you are looking for a good performance gun that can be turned into a great performance gun without sinking over $1000 into it, the drallion is unparralleled. Just don't expect it to work out of the box. It is a dragun, after all.

I have heard that Dragun doesn't have much in the way of customer service. Is that true? If my Drallion broke would it be easy to get them to replace it/repair it?

It is very true. You have a better chance of getting struck by lightning right after walking out of a store where you cashed in your $100,000,000 winning lottery ticket than you would of actually being able to get ahold of someone at dragun to have your gun repaired. However, you can always just use something breaking as an excuse to upgrade it. But if support is really important to you, then stay away from anything dragun has anything to do with. For not that much more than a drallion you could get a prostock cocker, which is very nice although it is a mechanical; a Odyssey 03x, which while not closed bolt, is a great electronic gun; or a BKO, which is another great electro gun for not an exorbinant amount of money.

My friends Drallion fired out of the box alright, but he ran CO2 in it and blew some O-Rings ;/

If you don't mind getting dirty and know how to maintain, time etc cockers than this gun isn't a bad deal at all. The Pneus aren't great well frankly none of the parts are "great" most are serviceable. If you want to buy new and you like Cockers this gun is a decent/good buy. There service if/when you get it isn't great... Frankly though for service I'd just find someone local thats good at working on cockers for major problems.

Thing is tho.. by the time you really get this thing setup, ACE Kit, Barrel, at minimum Anti-siphon CO2 with say a Palmers Stabalizer or (highly recommended..) HPA, good loader, you might be able to find a deal on a decent used E-Bladed or Race Framed Cocker....

Still for the money your getting a electro-cocker :P

Edit: Side note, if this is your first cocker I dunno if I would recommend it unless you know people that can get this setup right for you...
