New Gats
Were you sad to learn that ICD had lost the Naughty Dogs? I know i was a little bummed. FEAR NOT! Texas Storm will be shooting the Fs8 and Lasoya himself has his own promaster that is to be released! specs are unoffical
specs
Comes with dual guage block for LPR and HPR.
Vigilante HPR custom anno'd to match.
Teflon bolt, with quick strip out the back of the gun.
Smooth and cut down lightweight body.
Dust finish with fade anno.
New style LPR housing 'quick clean' grooves, for grip to undo the reg but also wipe clean with a finger tip. When playing X-ball you don't want to spend hours getting paint out of every nook and cranny.
New style Ram cap again with 'quick clean' grooves, for grip to undo the reg but also wipe clean with a finger tip.
Low rise feed neck.
New trigger.
New board functionality.
Cut out in the grip frame to allow you to put the battery in without removing the frame side.
Possibly some other stuff Chris is still working on.
FS8 specs!
New stuff:
Ego looking feedneck, cool clamping
new milling
eye covers- same as old, just milled to go with the curves of the body
trigger frame- bye bye hump
other then that it's the same old feestyle just faster, lighter (lighter then the gen 2!!!) and apparently more efficanct also.  We'll see which of those are true once it comes out.

That FS8 looks very nice.
Although my gun is faster... by a lot.
The FS8 might make a good backup gun depending on its price.

Except backups are supposed to be reliable

I hope ICD gets it right this time.... I'm guessing not since the guys that made the fs8 vid still switched out the reg(s?).

Well the guys who made the vid offer a service. They take the freestyle and put the HR1/HR2 bolt in it, the sidewinder reg, palmers rock lpr, and I think a nox board. Im guessing the Ultimate fs8(upgraded) will be about 900.

...everyone changes the regs on guns. Especially if they give a preformance boost. ICD regs get the jobs done, while AKA regs you know they will never let you down.
And seatbelt try $1000

I didn't have to change my regs.
ICD regs are terrible. And whoever said an ICD gun would make a bad backup gun is right, you want something either really cheap (ion) or something really reliable (viking) to back up a gun.
For a freestyle the FS8 definitely seems very nice.
